April 2021
604 (Optional)
1. Ensure the valve
cover of the 6000
Series facepiece is
clean,
uncontaminated
and undamaged.
The valve cover is
on the front of the
respirator and has
a large 3M logo.
There are four
breathing slots
surrounding the
logo.
2. Align the connector
tabs and hooks on
the back of the EVF
with the breathing
slots of the valve
cover.
Tip: Installing the
EVF with either
hook at the top
position may help
with proper
alignment of the
EVF.
3. Press the EVF
onto the valve
cover. The EVF
should sit evenly
on the valve
cover.
4. If the EVF is not
seated evenly on
the valve cover,
as shown above,
in Fig. 4, repeat
steps 2 & 3.
5. Slowly rotate the
EVF clockwise
until rotation
stops. Pull
outward lightly
on the EVF to
conrm a
complete
connection.

1. Place the respirator
over your mouth and
nose and pull head
harness over the
crown of head.
2. Connect the bottom
straps at the back of
the neck.
3. Adjust top straps by
pulling on ends of
straps.
4. Adjust bottom straps
by pulling on ends of
straps.
Adjust the straps so the respirator is comfortable and snug, but do not overtighten.
Note: Decrease strap tension by pushing out on back side of buckles.
Note: Use of the EVF does not change donning steps.
Step 5: Positive Pressure User Seal Check
Place the palm of your hand over the exhalation valve cover (if using the EVF
place the palm of your hand over the EVF opening) and exhale gently. If
facepiece bulges slightly and no air leaks are detected between your face and
the facepiece, a proper seal has been obtained. If faceseal air leakage is de-
tected, reposition respirator on your face and/or readjust tension of the elastic
straps to eliminate leakage. If you cannot achieve a proper seal, DO NOT
enter contaminated area.
