of the nosepiece.

performance. Use two hands.

5. Perform a User Seal Check prior to each wearing. To check the respirator-to-face seal, cover the front
of the respirator completely with both hands, being careful not to disturb the position of the respirator.
Inhale sharply. A negative pressure should be felt inside the respirator. If any leakage is detected,
readjust the position of the respirator according to Steps #3 and #4.
If you CANNOT achieve a proper seal DO NOT enter the contaminated area. See your supervisor.
