Time Use Limitation
If respirator becomes damaged, soiled, or breathing becomes difficult, leave the contaminated area
immediately and replace the respirator.
Fitting Instructions
Must be followed each time respirator is worn.
1. Place the respirator against your face with the nosepiece across the bridge of your nose.
Hold the respirator on your face and position the respirator under the chin. (Fig. 1)
2. Pull the top strap over your head resting it high at the top of your head. (Fig. 2)
3. Pull the bottom strap over your head position it around the neck, below the ear. (Fig. 3)
4. Place the fingertips of both hands at the top of the metal nosepiece. Mold the nosepiece
to the shape of the nose bridge by pushing inwards while moving your fingertips down both
sides of the nosepiece. (Fig. 4)
Pinching the respirator nosepiece using only one hand may result in less effective
respirator fit.
5. The seal of the respirator on the face must be checked by the wearer prior to entering the
work area.
a) Cover the front of the respirator with both hands, being careful not to disturb the position
of the respirator.
b) Exhale sharply. If air leaks around the nose bridge, readjust the nosepiece as described in
step 4. If air leaks at the respirator edges, work the straps back along the side of your hand.
(Fig. 5) If you CANNOT achieve a proper seal, DO NOT enter the contaminated area. See
your supervisor.
Removal Instructions
See step 2 of Fitting Instructions and cup respirator in hand to maintain position on face. Pull bottom
strap over head. Still holding respirator in position, pull top strap over head and remove respirator.
