The PPE must always be worn correctly by the user when entering a hazardous area
as follows: Where applicable, all zippers must be fully closed and all hook and loop flaps
closed fully and flush with no hook or loop portions exposed. Waist straps, where applicable,
must be tightened to fit the user snuggly (or “securely”). The PPE must always fit the user
correctly. If the PPE is either too loose or too tight, the PPE will not provide an optimum
level of protection as the user’s movement and sight may become impeded or the user’s
skin or undergarments may become exposed and unprotected. The integrated hard hat,
where applicable, must be correctly adjusted to firmly fit the user’s head for it to remain
in place for the foreseeable period of use and to allow the user minimal sight and
movement impediment. This is done by turning the black adjustment knob located on
the rear head strap to either tighten or loosen the head strap. All the PPE products are
available in a wide range of sizes to allow the user to choose the correct fit..
Unless otherwise required for your application, hard hats are required when using this PPE to
meet all necessary standards and requirements herein.
The hook and loop fastening the face shield to the fabric hood must be firmly attached and
must fit flush with no hook or loop portion exposed. Front and rear flaps must drop to
the user’s chest and upper back respectively without any hindrance.
NOTE: THE FACE SHIELD AFFECTS COLOR PERCEPTION.
The hard hat must be replaced if subjected to a significant mechanical impact, whether
it results in visible damage or not. No part of the hard hat should be removed or modified in
any way.

3. CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND OBSOLESCENCE
(END OF LIFE)
The PPE must be kept clean and dry to provide an optimum level of protection.
NOTE: SOILED PPE REDUCES EFFECTIVENESS OF PROTECTION
The following care instructions apply to the fabric component of the PPE which should
be removed from the shield and hard hat assembly prior to washing. The face shield
must be unfastened and removed prior to cleaning in an ultrasonic bath or with mild
soapy lukewarm water. Dry with cleaning paper or lint free cloth.
The PPE must not be washed in temperatures over 140ºF (60ºC).
Tumble dry at normal temperature.
Chlorine bleaches such as those containing sodium hypochlorite and oxygen
bleaches such as hydrogen peroxide must not be used to wash the PPE
neither directly nor as an ingredient in detergents, as they may affect
the protective properties of the PPE.
To provide an optimum level of protection, the PPE must be maintained in its original
condition. If the PPE becomes damaged due to factors including but not limited to
rips, cuts, abrasion, perforation, or other incidents that could cause damage but may
not result in visible damage, it may not provide the optimum level of protection and must be
replaced before being used again.
Wear of the face shield due to scratches may cause the user’s vision to become restricted.
Shouldsuch wear become apparent,the face shield must be replaced with an original
Salisbury part listed in section 4 of this document. To replace the face shield in a
PrismShield™ Plus Hood, simply remove the fabric component of the PPE held on with
hook & loop, then un-clip the shield from the hard hat by removing the retaining clips
from both sides.
The expected shelf life of the PPE is five years provided that entire kit is box packed and
all layers of packaging are intact, have never been opened and have never been used.
Each PPE label has the tracking number followed by month and year of manufacturing,
in MM-YY format. The expected service life of product is five years, from the month and
year of first donning, provided that proper care and maintenance instructions are followed
strictly as per the guidelines. Suspend the usage of PPE if you find mechanical damage of
any kind or any other damage during the service life.

workmanship defects and equivalent PPE will be provided as a replacement.
