Place the respirator
over your nose and
mouth. Be sure the
metal nose clip is
on top. With model

the straps before
wearing.
Pull the top strap
over your head
until it rests on the
crown of your head
above your ears.
Pull the bottom
strap over your
head until it
rests just below
your ears.

starting at the top,

one hand may result in
improper fit and less
effective respirator
performance. Use
two hands.
