• Check the full face mask to ensure that the head strap is securely
fastened, that the nose cup and the exhalation valve cover are
correctly and that all other parts are in good condition.
• If fitted, push spectacle frame into the desired position.
• Remove neckband.
• Loosen the straps as far as possible (figure B).
• Spread the head strap, place chin in recess (figure C), center the
head strap on the head. Make sure that the head strap rests flush
against the head.
• Make sure that neither hair nor head strap impair the sealing frame,
that the sealing frame contacts the face evenly and adjusts to its
contours.
• First, tighten both neckbands (figure D, step 1), then tighten the
temple straps (figure D, step 2) evenly towards the back of the
head so that the middle of the head strap remains on the middle of
the head (figure E).
• Only tighten the front strap (figure D, step 3) if required. Breathe
normally.
Spent air should leave the exhalation valve easily.
• Check for leaks:
— Tightly compress the mask connection and breathe in until a vac-
uum is produced.
— Briefly hold your breath: the vacuum must be maintained. If it is
not, the head strap must be tightened further.
— The leak test must be repeated twice.
WARNING!
The mask should only be used if perfectly tight,
otherwise there is danger of poisoning!
