CONTRAINDICATIONS
Not for use with beards or other facial hair that prevents direct contact between the face and the sealing surface of the respirator. OSHA has not set a permissible exposure level for airborne bio-hazards.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before occupational use of this respirator, a written respiratory protection program must be implemented meeting all the local government requirements. In the United States, employers must comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 which includes medical evaluation, training, and fit testing.

3. Filtering face pieces are to be inspected prior to each use to good operating condition. Examine all the respirator parts for signs of damage including the two headbands, nose foam, nose clip and face piece material.

1. Cup the respirator in your hand, with the nose piece at your fingertips, allowing the headbands to hang freely below your hand.
2. Position the respirator under your chin with the nose piece up. Pull the top strap over your head resting it high at the top back of your head. Pull the bottom strap over your head and position it around the neck below the ears.
3. Place your fingertips from both hands at the top of the metal nose piece. Using two hands, mold the nose area to the shape of your nose by pushing inward while moving your fingertips down both sides of the nose piece.
1 Tested against 0.3-micron particle (count median diameter) per 42 CFR 84
Pinching the nose piece using one hand may result in improper fit and less effective respirator performance. Use two hands.
4. Perform a User Seal Check prior to each wearing. To check the respirator-to-face seal, place both hands
completely over the respirator and exhale. Be careful not to disturb the position of the respirator. If air leaks around nose, readjust the nose piece as described in step 3. If air leaks at the respirator edges, work the straps back along the sides of your head. If you CANNOT achieve proper seal, 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.
