FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
1802 is suggested for the majority of users. 1802S is suggested for users with small faces.
See Figure 1. Before fitting device, ensure hands are clean.
All respirator components should be inspected for damage prior to each use. 1. Using both hands,
place fingers on the top side and thumbs on the underside of noseclip. Bend slightly at centre of
noseclip. 2 . Unfold the respirator by pulling top and bottom panels open to form a cup shape. Straps
should be held on the top panel. 3. Cup respirator in one hand with open side towards face. Take
both straps in other hand. Hold respirator under chin, with nosepiece up, and pull straps over head.
4 . Locate one strap below the ears, then the other strap across the crown of the head. Straps must
not be twisted.Adjust top and bottom panels for a comfortable fit, ensuring edges are not folded in
and bottom panel is securely under the chin. Tabs on side of respirator (marked 'A' in Figure 1 step 2)
may be used to comfortably adjust respirator. 5. Using both hands, mould noseclip to the shape of
the lower part of the nose to ensure a close fit and good seal. Pinching the noseclip using only one
hand may result in less effective respirator performance. 6. The seal of the respirator on the face
should be fit-checked before entering the workplace.
FIT CHECK
1. Cover the front of the respirator with both hands being careful not to disturb the fit of the respirator.
2a) UNVALVED respirator - EXHALE sharply; 2b) VALVED respirator - INHALE sharply. 3. If air
leaks around the nose, re-adjust the noseclip to eliminate leakage. Repeat the above fit check. 4. If
air leaks at the respirator edges, work the straps back along the sides of the head to eliminate
leakage. Repeat the above fit check. If you CANNOT achieve a proper fit DO NOT enter the
hazardous area. See your supervisor. It is recommended that wearers should be fit tested in
accordance withAS/NZS 1715. For information regarding fit testing procedures, please contact 3M.
