INSPECTION

DO NOT inspect the respirator before cleaning if there
is danger of contacting hazardous contaminants.
Clean and disinfect first, then inspect. Failure to follow
this warning can result in inhalation or skin absorption
of the contaminant and cause serious personal injury
or death.
Inspect the respirator by sight and sound for normal oper-
ations after it has been cleaned and disinfected. When
any part shows evidence of damage, wear, or any other
adverse condition explained in this section, it must be
replaced and the condition corrected before the respirator
can be used again.
Note: Replacement or repairs shall be done only by quali-
fied persons, using only MSA parts designed for the respi-
rator. No attempt shall be made to make adjustments or
repairs beyond the manufacturer's recommendations.
Parts shall not be interchanged among devices of different
manufacturers. MSA authorizes levels of maintenance and
repair for the PremAire CADET Respirator System. (See
maintenance manual P/N 10017251.)
If there is no MSA Service Center in your area, return the
unit to MSA for service. Call 1-800-MSA-2222 for instruc-
tions.
See PremAire Duo-Twin Instruction Manual for
other general repair requirements.
Inspect the entire apparatus after it is cleaned and disin-
fected. ANSI Standards Z88.2 and Z88.5, describe three
levels of inspection procedures which are to be per-
formed. Refer to these documents or to an inspection
program prepared by a health professional in establishing
an inspection program. Detailed repair procedures are
located in PremAire Users Maintenance Instructions.
If any of the following inspections do not function
properly, the apparatus must be removed from ser-
vice. Failure to follow this warning can result in seri-
ous personal injury or death.

WARNING
Component Inspection
(After Each Use and Monthly)
1. Don the respirator following the instruction proce-
dures. These steps make up the Functional Test.
2. If all steps are performed successfully, remove the res-
pirator and inspect it following the steps below.
3. Facepiece
a. Inspect the facepiece for rubber deterioration, dirt,
cracks, tears, holes, or tackiness.
b. Check the harness headstraps for breaks, loss of
elasticity, or missing buckles and straps. Check the
strap serrations for signs of wear.
c. Inspect the lens for cracks, scratches, and a tight
seal with the facepiece rubber.
d. The exhalation valve must be clean and operate
easily. The valve must move off the seat and return
when released.
e. Inspect the facepiece coupling for damage. When
using Ultra Elite or Ultravue Facepieces, be sure the
spider gasket, O-ring, and valve disc are present.
4. Harness
a. Inspect all harness components for cuts, tears,
abrasions, or signs of heat or chemical-related
damage. Check that the tee nuts, washers, and
screws, if any, are secure.
5. Record Keeping
a. Following inspection, the date and initials of the
designated person should be recorded on an
inspection tag. A more detailed record of the opera-
tions performed can be noted on an inspection and
maintenance log. Inspection tags and inspection
and maintenance logs are available from MSA.
When the inspection data has been recorded, the
apparatus is stored in a ready position.
Note: There are additional components to be inspection
for PremAire CADET Respirators with Escape Cylinder.
Refer to the Inspection section in P/N 497230.
