TABLE OF CONTENTS
Air Wing

Air Wing
This product with its attached dust filter purifies airborne dust, pollutants, fine particles as well as
other contaminants, welding dust, metal dust, and supplies clean air to the user’s facial area.
2. Danger
When NOT aware of; what the contaminant generated in workplace is and concentration of
the contaminant in the air, or in case of such concentration level (IDLH) that may occur
immediate danger for health and/or life, please do NOT use this product.
When the oxygen concentration of the air in workplace is 18% or lower, do NOT use this
product.
Without filter equipped, NEVER use this product. It may cause such danger for human life.
(Use those filters that OTOS Co., Ltd. sells.)
Only those parts and components included in product component table/picture must be
used and do NOT use them for other usage rather than this product.
Do NOT use this product in such place totally sealed.
Do NOT use this product in places with such dangers as fire and explosion.
Do not directly connect the filter to safety caps or face guards.
3. Caution
Do NOT use at workplace with strong wind. (as negative pressure generated inside the
hood, outside-air comes into the hood)
alarming, immediately get away from the contaminated area and check up the device. In
any cases below, please get away from that contaminated place.
-. When some problem is shown in any part of the product;
-. When the air supply is stopped or its amount is decreased;
-. When it gets hard to breathe;
-. When feeling dizzy or headache;
-. When feeling the smell or taste of the contaminants and its stimulus occurred;
Do NOT put the battery near fire and/or its heat.
Do not use the product with its power turned off since carbon dioxide concentration may
increase and oxygen level inside the face guard may decrease.
Do not use if the product does not supply enough air.(MIN - 160 / min)
Do not use the product in work environments where the level of contamination is too high
rendering the product to stop functioning and cause serious injury.
The product is designed to be used in the temperature range between -5 and +55 .
4. Notice
Please follow the direction described in this manual and be aware enough of how to use
and how to wear before using this product. If using this product in wrong direction, it may
cause danger.
Before use this product, please check up if the Air Wing s body is connected right with the
hood and the connecting hose. (See page 6 ~8)
Before use this product, please check up airflow with the flow-meter. (MIN 160 / min
See page 8)
Before get away from the contaminated area, do NOT take off the hood or do NOT stop
operation of the Air Wing.
Do NOT disassemble the product. It may cause malfunction and free of charge A/S
(warranty) service is not provided.
Make sure the connecting hosepipe stoops and is not entangled or is in the way of other
items in the area.
When verifying the protection grade of the product, make sure the user does not confuse
the European standard EN12941 label with those associated with other standards.
1. Usage
This product may be used in workplaces with sufficient amount of oxygen including welding
shops (grinding and polishing) where various airborne heavy metal dusts are generated, sand-
ing or grinding workshops, workshops that handle hazardous materials such as asbestos, and
any other workshops where airborne dusts are generated.
5. Features
This product has particle filter and Odor Filter. Also, this product has alarming function
(sound and display panel) that gives notice when such dangers as low battery or lack air-
flow.
In order NOT to let the outer air come inside the hood, it generates positive pressure so it
blocks harmful objects getting into.
This product is suitable for prevention of respiratory contagious disease and such work-
places that have bad smell, normal dust, harmful objects, and particulate objects floating in
the air.
It guarantees smoother breath compared to facial mask and it protects worker from harmful
factors.
Ultra-light hood and shoulder-strap reduce feeling weight and fatigue when wearing for long
time.

Filter
Particle filter : purifies fine particles and mote contaminant.
Odor Filter : After the particle filter process, the odor filter removes foul odor and odor
particles.
6. Check-up points before use;
If the filter is equipped right, (See page 5)
If the connecting hose has any problem and is connected to the Air Wing s body
exactly, (See page 6~7)
If right airflow is supplied upon taking airflow test, (See page 8 for airflow test)

Regular Check-up
Always before use
Once a month if not using regularly
Section Time to check-up
23. Technical Data
EN 12941 (standard for breathing protection motor assisted filter protection with helmet or
hood)
TH2 P (SL)(classification of the unit with regards to protection when using particulate filters.
The number 2defines the level of protection(inward leakage) within the classification,
whilst the letter P indicates use of a particulate filter and letters SL show that the filter has
been tested against particles of liquid or solid matter in gas
24. Washing
Dissolve home detergent lightly in the water and use a clean cloth for washing.
( When washing, be careful for the water not toget inside the body.)
Do NOT use petroleum, organic solvent, grinding detergent, and so on.
-. Do NOT wash or reuse the filters used once.
-. When washing, be careful for the water NOT to get inside the body.
25. Maintenance
The air hose must be checked regularly and must be changed if it is damaged and causes
leakage. Faulty connections must be rectified. The particle filter must be changed if the bat-
tery operating time becomes too short or it is blocked and does not give enough air flow. The
particle filter CANNOT be cleaned. Do not attempt to remove contamination using a com-
pressed air line as this will automatically invalidate the warranty. The battery must be
charged, as noted in the instructions, when the low battery alarm sounds. The face seal must
be changed if it is damaged, dirty or uncomfortable.
