ACCESSORIES

W WARNING
1. The M-100 Series headgear (with or without the use of the M-170 Faceshield Head Inserts), and
the M-200 Series headgear, do not meet the test requirements for hard hat protection under ANSI
Z89.1-2009. When head protection is required by OSHA, or other safety regulations, hardhats or
helmets, such as the M-300 and M-400 Series Headgear, must be used instead of the M-100 or
M-200 Series Headgear. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
2. Use of the Head, Neck, and Shoulder Cover (M-976) does not increase the Assigned Protection
Factor (APF) of the M-100, M-200 or M-300 Series Headgear. The M-976 is designed to help keep
the wearer and headgear clean and does not increase the level of respiratory protection provided.
Improper use may overexpose you to contaminants, and may result in sickness or death.
3. Do not use the head, neck, and shoulder cover or non-flame resistant faceseals and shrouds
around high heat, sparks or flames. Misuse may result in serious injury or death.
4. Do not use the Shaded Peel-Off Cover (M-929) for welding. The Shaded Peel-off Cover (M-929)
will not protect the wearer's eyes from the harmful level of visible light, ultra-violet radiation (UV),
and infrared radiation (IR) resulting from gas and arc welding processes. Misuse may result in
permanent eye injury and vision loss. For welding use an ANSI Z87.1 complaint welding helmet
with an appropriate filter lens for the specific welding process.
5. Only use the Shaded Peel-Off Cover (M-929) on the 3M™ Versaflo™ M-Series Headgear. Do not
use on any other headgear including faceshields and eyewear. Misuse may result in permanent
eye injury and vision loss.

M-926 and M-928 Peel-off Visor Covers

Ensure the visor is clean and dry before attaching any visor covers. To attach peel-off visor covers, peel
off the paper backing from the adhesive on the edges of the cover. Center the cover over the visor and
press the edges with the adhesive coating against the visor. You may stack up to 5 visor covers on top of
one another. This allows you to quickly peel off covers as they become difficult to see through, reducing
the number of times you must stop working to reapply covers.
NOTE: The M-926 Covers are for use with the M-925 Uncoated Visor and the M-928 Covers are for use
with the M-927 Coated Visor. The M-926 Covers have a notch in the tab for easy identification. Use of the
M-928 Covers on the uncoated M-925 visor may leave residue upon removal.

M-929 Shaded Peel-Off Cover

The 3M™ Versaflo™ Shaded Peel-off Visor Cover (M-929) is an optional accessory for the 3M™
Versaflo™ M-Series Headgear. The peel-off is optimized for the M-927 premium visor. Use of the M-929
cover on the uncoated M-925 visor may leave residue upon removal.
The shaded peel-off cover M-929 complies with the shade W3.0 transmission requirements listed in
Table 6 of the American Standards Institute Eye and Face Protection standard ANSI Z87.1-2010. The
peel-off cover is intended for use in torch brazing and soldering applications. For additional information
on the technical specifications, consult the M-929 Technical Specifications Sheet available at
www.3M.com/PPEsafety.
Assembly
To attach the peel-off cover to the outside of the M-927 visor:
1. Before installing the peel-off cover, ensure the visor is clean and dry.
2. Remove the paper backing from the adhesive on the edges of the cover.
3. Center the cover over the outside of the visor and press the edges with the adhesive coating against
the visor.
4. If the peel-off is being attached to a visor not yet installed into the M-Series headgear assembly,
insert the visor into the headgear following the procedures in the M-Series Headgear User
Instructions.
5. Verify the peel-off is centered on the visor and there is minimal gap between the visor frame
assembly and the peel-off cover.
6. If the peel-off is not centered on the visor, remove the peel-off and repeat steps 1-5 above with a
new peel-off cover.
7. Read completely and follow the User Instructions for the M-Series Headgear and your 3M supplied air
device or powered air purifying respirator to complete system assembly and performance checks.
18
NOTE: Use only one peel-off cover at a time. Do not stack multiple M-929 shaded peel-off covers on
the M-Series visor. Do not use any other peel-off cover in combination with the M-929 including the clear
peel-off visor covers M-926 and M-928.
Carefully inspect the peel-off for damage before each use including holes, tearing, ripping, peeling,
discoloration, and hazing. If you discover any signs of damage, remove headgear from use and replace
the peel-off visor cover with a new one. Failure to do so may affect performance and reduce the degree
of protection provided.
Before use, store the M-929 shaded peel-off covers in original unopened packaging in a clean area that
is protected from contamination, damage, dirt, debris, product distortion, and direct sunlight. Do not store
next to furnaces, ovens, or other sources of high heat. When stored in accordance with the recommended
storage conditions listed in these User Instructions, product may be used until "use by" date specified on
packaging.
If deciding not to treat the shroud as disposable, as suggested above, inspect closely before reuse.

M-170 Faceshield Head Inserts

The head inserts can be snapped into the M-100 Series Headgear to create a closed shell that provides
minimal head coverage against contact with stationary objects or hard surfaces. The inserts also help to
protect the wearer's head from overspray, dust, dirt and debris. The inserts can be installed and removed
as required. The inserts are marked with an "X" and an "O" respectively (Fig. 18a). To install, match the
marking on the insert with the corresponding marking on the M-100 Shell (i.e. match "X" to "X") as
shown in Fig. 18b. Snap into place, starting with the snap on the outside of the shell on each side (i.e.
side nearest wearer's ears) (Fig. 18c).

M-958 Chin Strap

An optional chin strap is available for all M-Series Headgear to increase stability and provide additional
comfort. Locate the chin strap attachment points on the head suspension and attach the chin strap as
shown in Fig. 19. Verify chin strap is secured to the suspension by pulling on the chin strap. See Chin
Strap packaging for additional information on use and care.
