Use

4.1

Before use

● Strictly follow OSHA 1910.134 and other valid national regulationsfor the
use of respiratory equipment.
● Before using the facepiece for the first time, perform a leak test (see "Leak
tests", page 7).
4.1.1 Selecting the correct facepiece size
The facepiece bodies are available in sizes S, M, L, nose cups in sizes 1, 2, 3
and head harnesses in sizes M/L and S. In most cases, the standard size M2 is
used. If using size M2 cannot ensure sufficient leak tightness, another size
combination must be used.
WARNING
Each user must be provided with a facepiece of suitable size.
Prior to use, always make sure that the facepiece is leaktight. The face seal
between head and facepiece body must be free of hair and foreign substances
which could cause leakages. Spectacle wearers should wear facepiece
spectacles.
