On a daily basis, check the condition of both the
inner collar and outer capes. The inner collar
should provide a snug fit around the operators'
neck to prevent the entry of dust and abrasive
into the respirator helmet. Replace the collar
and cape as necessary. The inner collar is
attached to the outer cape by way of a zipper
arrangement. Simply unzip the inner collar to
remove it from the outer cape. The inner collar
may be washed in a mild detergent, and air
dried.
8.6
To replace the cape, carefully roll the rubber
sealing band upwards, exposing the press studs
which retain the cape on the respirator helmet
shell. If the sealing band is damaged or has
A
become stretched from its' original size, it
should also be replaced. Carefully remove the
cape press studs from the respirator shell, and
discard the old cape. Position the join/seam in
the neck of the new cape at the rear of the
respirator
attaching the press studs to the respirator shell,
starting from this point. Once fully attached,
pull the sealing band down over the cape press
studs, taking care to ensure that the sealing
band creates a positive seal around the full
circumference of the respirator helmet shell.
