CHECK - SUB-COMPONENT NUMBERS - CLEANING
CHECK BEFORE USE:
ICAN FULL FACE must always be cleaned after use and checked for leakage and
function with a suitable leakage analyser (refer to intervals between function and
leakage tests in table 2, page 9).
ICAN FULL FACE must always be checked before use in order to ensure that the
full face mask is not damaged and is clean. It is extremely important that a mask
leakage test (see below) is always carried out before use.
MASK LEAKAGE TEST:
ICAN FULL FACE's screw thread opening
should be covered by the hand so that air
cannot enter the mask from outside, whilst at
the same time inhaling and holding the
breath for approx. 10 seconds. Repeat the
test 2-3 times. If outside air enters the mask,
tighten the straps further (see "Adjustment",
page 4). If the air cannot be prevented from
entering the mask by tightening the straps, a
detailed
examination
of
the
mask's
individual components is necessary.
SUB-COMPONENT NUMBERS:
Sub-components which have a particular significance for safety are marked so that
they can be identified - refer to table 5, page 10.
CLEANING:
After removing the filter or air supply pipe, the ICAN FULL FACE should always
be cleaned after use in lukewarm water to which a mild detergent has been added
(e.g., washing-up liquid or a liquid washing machine detergent) which does not
contain perborate. If the mask is very dirty, a brush can be used to clean it.
Do not use solvents (e.g., benzine or spirit) or very warm water (max. 60°C). The
mask should be rinsed thoroughly in lukewarm running water (refer to cleaning
intervals in table 2, page 9).
