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. Prestretch top and bottom straps before placing respirator on the
face (8210 only) (Fig. 1).
2. Cup the respirator in your hand, with the nosepiece at your
fingertips, allowing the headbands to hang freely below your
hand (Fig. 2).
3. Position the respirator under your chin with the nosepiece 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 (Fig. 3).
4. Place your fingertips from both hands at the top of the metal
nosepiece. 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 nosepiece (Fig. 4).
Pinching the nosepiece using one hand may result in improper
fit and less effective respirator performance. Use two hands.
5. 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 sharply. Be careful not to disturb the position
of the respirator. If air leaks around nose, readjust the nosepiece
as described in step 4. If air leaks at the respirator edges, work the
straps back along the sides of your head (Fig. 5). If you CANNOT
achieve a proper seal, DO NOT enter the contaminated area.
