Cleaning

 WARNING

Avoid contaminant entry into the breathing tube, as this will compromise 
respiratory protection and could result in death or serious injury. Consult your local 
safety professional if you suspect that contaminant has entered the breathing 
tube.
When cleaning the equipment, do the following:

• Ensure water does not enter filter/cartridges. Replace wet filter/cartridges.
•  DO NOT use gasoline, organic-based solvents, or chlorinated degreasing fluids 

(such as trichloroethylene), as they will cause damage.

•  DO NOT immerse the equipment in water or other cleaning fluid, unless using 

Bullard decontamination components.

•  Use a lint-free cloth moistened in a mild solution of soap and warm water to 

clean the outer surface of the equipment.

Failure to observe the instructions and warnings in this manual invalidates all 
performance statements and approvals for this equipment and could result in 
death or serious injury.
