Breathing Tube Assembly
Inspection
Inspect the breathing tube for tears, cracks, holes, or excessive wear that
might reduce the degree of protection originally provided. If any signs of
excessive wear are present, replace the breathing tube immediately or
remove the respirator from service.
Cleaning
To clean the breathing tube, hand-sponge with warm water and mild
detergent, being careful not to get water inside. Rinse and air-dry. After
cleaning, once again carefully inspect breathing tube for signs of damage.
Air Supply Hose
Inspection
The starter and extension hose(s) should be inspected closely for abrasions,
corrosion, cuts, cracks and blistering. Be sure the hose fittings are crimped
tightly to the hose so that air cannot escape. Make sure the hose has not
been kinked or crushed by any equipment that may have rolled over it.
If any of the above signs are present or any other signs of excessive wear
are detected, replace the air supply hose(s) immediately or remove the
respirator from service.
Cleaning
The air supply hose(s) should be hand-sponged with warm water and mild
detergent, rinsed and air-dried. Do not get water inside the air supply
hose. After cleaning, once again carefully inspect air supply hose(s) for
signs of damage.
Bullard air supply hose is not included in the purchase of respirator
assembly and must be purchased separately. Bullard air supply hose must
be used in order to maintain respirator assembly compliance.

CAUTION
Do not cut or remove foam that is inside the breathing tube. The foam
helps reduce the noise level of the incoming air supply. It does not
filter or purify your breathing air. NIOSH has approved this respirator
with the foam in place. Failure to observe these instructions may result
in minor or moderate injury.
WARNING
Only use hoses that are NIOSH approved for use with this respirator.
Other hoses could reduce airflow and protection, and expose the
wearer to life threatening conditions. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in death or serious injury.
