Do not use the respirator unless the regulator is con-
nected properly. A regulator that is not installed cor-
rectly can separate from the facepiece unexpectedly.
Return the respirator to an MSA trained or certified
repairperson to correct the condition. Failure to follow
this precaution can result in serious personal injury or
death.

There must be a continuous flow of air when the
bypass knob is opened. If not, do not use the appara-
tus. The SCBA must be checked and corrected for
proper operation by an MSA trained or certified repair-
person before using it. Failure to follow this precaution
may result in serious personal injury or death.
Note:
If the air mask passes all tests, the unit is ready to
use. Remember, you must perform these tests every time
before you enter the hazardous atmosphere. If the unit
fails to meet any of the tests, the condition(s) must be
corrected before using the apparatus.
