upwards through about 180 degrees. Fig. 11.

seal all round.

4.4.3 To change the face seal
The plastic frame of the face seal is provided with a groove (Fig.
14) into which the visor unit frame fits (Fig. 15). The frame is

fit into holes in the visor unit. The ends of the face seal fabric
are provided with hooks that are secured to the head harness.
Proceed as follows:
• Release the hooks from the head harness. Fig. 16.
• Release the face seal by pulling its frame so that its pins are
released from the visor unit holes. Fig. 17.
• Remove the face seal.
• Thread the new face seal over the visor unit flange, with the
centre markings in line with one another. Fig. 18.
• Press the face seal frame down so that the pins drop into
the visor unit holes. A clicking sound indicates that they are
in place. Fig. 19.
• Secure the hooks to the head harness in the place where
the sweatband is relieved. Fig. 16.

strap and with the relief upwards.
