OPERATION
WARNING: Only when the equipment is fitted and worn correctly as described below will it provide the prescribed protection.
7.1.
Fasten belt around the waist with the preset regulator situated in the small of the back.
7.2.
Place the mask on the head and check height setting. Ensure head band is not too low on the brow. If necessary adjust crown
strap until correct height adjustment is achieved. With mask on head turn adjuster knob to obtain a firm and comfortable fit.
Any condensation must be removed before fitting the mask.
7.3.
Connect compressed air supply hose to the preset regulator. If vibration occurs upon connection, decouple and re-connect slowly.
7.4.
Connect the spray gun hose to the supply hose if required.
7.5.
When walking, the trailing leader hose should be grasped firmly in one hand to prevent the hose connector, or the preset
regulator from being pulled.
7.6.
Warning: the mask is equipped with a warning whistle which sounds if the air pressure becomes too low to give adequate protection.
7.6.1.
If the whistle sounds, leave the contaminated area immediately.
7.6.2.
Remove the headset and increase the supply pressure.
7.6.3.
Refit the mask and check; if the whistle still sounds increase the pressure further and repeat 7.6.2.
7.7.
See HSE Practical Guide for users of respiratory protective equipment.

MAINTENANCE
The equipment must be checked at monthly intervals (use a record card). Care taken during and after use will ensure that the
equipment gives reliable and lasting service.
The system is designed to minimise servicing. Worn or damaged components can be replaced as sub-assemblies.
8.1.
Cleaning
The apparatus should be washed with a mild soap solution, wiped clean with a clean damp cloth and allow to dry.
Rinse the mask with a mild detergent in tap water (see 8.3) and dry with a soft clean cloth.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use solvents or abrasives as they will damage the equipment. See 8.3. for recommended cleaning agents.
8.2.
General Maintenance.
8.2.1.
Preset Regulator
This regulator is preset and sealed and can only be replaced as a complete unit.
8.2.2.
Belt Mounted Filter Unit
The unit has a replacement element (Item 8) contained in a screw on/off bowl housing. This element must be replaced if its colour
changes from white to pink, or if there is any trace of odour. The filter unit should be periodically subjected to a pressure
differential test at full flow. If a 10psi differential is recorded then the filter requires replacing. To do so, disconnected the air supply,
unscrew the element, clean the bowl with soapy water and dry thoroughly. Screw new element on (hand tight only) and check for
leaks. If the bowl is scratched, pitted or discoloured, fit a new bowl. Fit bowl hand tight only, and check again for leaks.
WARNING! DO NOT hand wash or brush filter to reclaim for further use. Check flow indicator for damage.
8.2.3.
Coalescing Filter
The unit has a screw on/off bowl housing the replaceable element. The element must be replaced if there is more than 10psi
pressure differential, or the element has become saturated. To do so, disconnected air supply, unscrew bowl, unscrew the element
and discard. Fit new element by screwing hand-tight only and check for leaks. The bowl should be cleaned with soapy water
and thoroughly dried before replacing. If the bowl is scratched, pitted, or discoloured fit a new bowl.
WARNING! DO NOT attempt to reclaim the filter for further use, either by hand washing or brushing.
8.3.
