5.1 The lifetime of a filter depends on many factors including the work rate, the airflow and the concentration of the contaminant in the
atmosphere. A gas filter should be changed immediately when chemical breakthrough of a contaminant is detected by smell, taste or any
other means. A dust filter should be changed when breathing becomes impaired.
The exterior of the filter can be cleaned with the use of a damp cloth. Solvents must not be used and care should be taken to ensure no
water enters the filter. Cleaning of the filter does not extend its life.

5.3.6 To carry out a more thorough cleaning of the respirator, remove the filter cartridge and exhale valve and wash the complete respirator body
in warm, soapy water and dry.
5.3.7 Re-fit components in reverse order from which they were removed. Care should be taken not to damage inhalation/exhalation rubber
valves. Condition of the valves should be checked weekly and replaced if damaged/deteriorated.
DO NOT USE SOLVENTS, STRONG DETERGENTS, BLEACHES OR PETROLEUM BASED PRODUCTS TO CLEAN ANY PART OF
MASK.
WARNING! Immediately leave work area and change the respirator and/or filter if breathing becomes difficult, dizziness or other distress
occurs, respirator is damaged, or you sense irritation, smell or taste contaminates in the work area.
5.4 Cleaning the respirator.
After each work period (shift, or working day, etc.) the respirator must be cleaned and prepared for the next period of use. When the filter is
being replaced it is a good opportunity to disassemble the respirator and thoroughly clean it. No special tools are required to remove any of
the components from the face-piece.
5.4.1 The outer surfaces of the respirator may be cleaned using a cloth dampened with warm soapy water, then dried using a dry cloth.
DO NOT ALLOW WATER TO GET INTO THE FILTER.
5.4.2 Clean the respirator components using warm soapy water.
DO NOT USE DETERGENTS, THINNERS, SOLVENTS OR PETROLEUM-BASED DISINFECTANTS. TAKE GREAT CARE NOT TO
DAMAGE THE RUBBER SEAL ON THE INSIDE OF THE FILTER HOLDER WHILST CLEANING.
5.4.3 Inhalation and exhalation valves must be cleaned carefully. DO NOT stretch or distort the valves as this may cause incorrect sealing. Wipe
the inside surface of the mask using a mild antiseptic solution, and dry with a clean cloth.
IF ANY DETERIORATION OF VALVE DIAPHRAGM OR OTHER RUBBER COMPONENTS IS VISIBLE, REPLACE IMMEDIATELY.
5.4.4 Rinse in clean, cool water, shake off any surplus water, wipe with a clean dry cloth and allow to dry naturally.
5.4.5 Once the components are clean and dry, re-assemble the respirator in correct order.
