3M Versaflo S Serie Directives D'utilisation page 8

S-100, S-400, and S-500 Series:
• Pull the hood or headcover over your head so that the visor is directly in front of your face.
• Pull the suspension firmly onto your head. The suspension should feel tight but comfortable. The comfort
pad (i.e. sweatband) should be worn around your forehead just above the brow.
• Headgear with plastic suspensions only (all models except S-103 and S-403): If your hood or headcover
has a plastic suspension, it may be adjusted as necessary to achieve a comfortable fit (Fig. 8). The headband
of the plastic suspension should be worn around your forehead and the crown strap should be positioned
on top of the head, not around the back of the head (Fig. 9). NOTE: The fabric suspension in the S-103 and
S-403 is not adjustable.

• To achieve the best fit, the elasticized edge of the hood or headcover faceseal should come in contact with
your face under the chin and above the ears.

Tuck the inner shroud fully into your work clothing, but leave the outer shroud draped over your shoulders.
