WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS
• The employer is responsible for establishing that this respirator is
suitable for the user’s application.
• This respirator will reduce, but will not eliminate the inhalation of
contaminants. Some sensitive individuals may experience health
problems when exposed to even minute amounts of contaminants. This
respirator will not prevent health problems for those individuals. Where
suspected cancer-causing contaminants are present, positive-pressure
supplied air respirators will provide higher protection levels.
• SPERIAN cannot predict what will happen to this respirator in every
potential environment. Materials can be chemically attacked if exposed
to the wrong environment and may exhibit excessive corrosion or
other forms of damage. Permeation or penetration of gases, liquids,
or particles through the materials could be excessive. Extremes of
temperature might cause thermal degradation. Each of these things, or
a combination of them, could create conditions in which this SPERIAN
respirator would be dangerous to use.
• This respirator must be used in conjunction with a written respirator
program meeting the requirements of the OSHA Standard for
Respiratory Protection, 29 CFR 1910.134, available from the U.S.
Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
The program must include procedures for evaluating air contaminants
and selecting appropriate respirators; procedures for proper use
of respirators; procedures for testing the facepiece-to-face t of
respirators; procedures for cleaning, disinfecting, inspecting,
maintaining, and storing respirators; procedures for determining if
workers are physically and medically capable of wearing respirators;
and procedures for training employees in the use

WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS—Continued
and care of respirators and in recognizing the hazards associated with
contaminants in the work place.
• Do not use this respirator without the appropriate SPERIAN cartridges
and/or lters securely threaded onto the facepiece. Always read cartridge
labels prior to use and be certain that you have cartridges and/or lters
that will provide the required protection. This respirator must be used for
protection against only those air contaminants listed on the air purifying
cartridge, lter, and/or the NIOSH approval label. Respirators labeled for
protection against particulates only shall not be used for gases/vapors.
Respirators labeled for protection against gases/vapors only shall not
be used for particulates.
• Routinely used respirators must be inspected before and after each use.
Stored emergency respirators must be inspected after each use and at
least once every 30 days. A written record must be kept of inspections
of emergency respirators.
• Do not use this respirator in environments where the concentrations of
contaminants are unknown or are immediately dangerous to life or health
(IDLH). IDLH atmospheres are dened as those which the wearer could not
breathe for short periods, could not escape without the aid of a respirator,
or which have an immediate or delayed adverse effect on health.
• Do not use the respirator if you have health or respiratory problems
as identied by 29 CFR 1910.134, Appendix C, Medical Evaluation
Questionnaire (or by a medical professional). Persons sensitized can
have a severe reaction to chemicals at levels well below accepted
health levels such as the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL),
ACGIH® Threshold Limit Value (TLV), or NIOSH Recommended Exposure
Limits (REL). Isocyanates are potent sensitizers. Use positive pressure
supplied air respirators to provide better protection against these
chemicals. Do not use this respirator if you have been sensitized from
previous exposure or believe that you may be sensitive or allergic to any
chemical (e.g., isocyanates, latex, etc.) until you obtain clearance from
a medical doctor.
• Use of components other than those listed on the NIOSH approval label
and in this manual, or as authorized by SPERIAN, or modication of this
respirator in any manner will void the NIOSH certication and invalidates
all SPERIAN’s warranties for the respirator. • This respirator must be
worn and used as specied in SPERIAN’s instructions. No respirator
can provide complete protection from all conditions. Use extreme care
for emergency conditions.
• Some individuals are sensitive to chemicals (e.g., isocyanates, latex,
oil mists, etc.) or may have some type of respiratory disorder (e.g.
asthma, chronic obstructive airway disease, etc.). If you are sensitive
to any chemical or have a respiratory disorder, you may have a severe
reaction at contaminant levels well below accepted health levels, such
as the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL), ACGIH®Threshold Limit
Value (TLV), or the NIOSH Recommended Exposure Limits (REL). Many
chemicals (e.g., isocyanates, mercury, etc.) have no physical warning

WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS—Continued
properties and you cannot taste or smell the contaminants even though
they may be present in the respirator facepiece. This respirator will
reduce, but will not eliminate the possibility of contaminants entering
the facepiece and causing a severe reaction. Do not use this respirator
until you obtain clearance from a medical doctor. Always read and
follow the instructions listed in the Material Safety Data Sheet for the
chemicals that are present in the work area.
• Do not use if you have a preexisting skin condition (for example,
folliculitus or vitiligo) until you obtain clearance from a medical doctor.
• Users must clean and maintain this respirator only in accordance with
SPERIAN’s instructions.
• Before entering a hazardous environment while wearing this respirator,
you must conduct safe, scientic tests to determine if the environment
could render the equipment unsafe. Results of this testing should be
well documented. Seek the help of a certied safety professional or
industrial hygienist. Do not use this equipment if the user would be
endangered in any way through environmentally induced degradation
of the materials in the apparatus.
• Do not wear this respirator if a satisfactory t, as determined by a
qualitative or quantitative t test, cannot be obtained. See ANSI Z88.2,
latest issue, and OSHA CFR 1910.134, latest edition.
• If this respirator will be used during welding, it is the user’s responsibility to
obtain the proper equipment for protection against sparks, optical radiation,
and impact. This respirator will not protect you against these hazards.
• Do not use this respirator at temperatures above 130°F (55°C).
• This respirator does not protect exposed areas of the body. Some
contaminants can be absorbed directly through the skin while others
may irritate exposed areas.
• This respirator does not supply oxygen. Do not use the respirator in
atmospheres containing less than 19.5% oxygen by volume.
• Beards, stubble, or sideburns will prevent a good facepiece seal, and
facial hair may interfere with valve function. Do not use this respirator
unless you are clean shaven. Absence of one or both dentures can
seriously affect the t of the respirator.
• Immediately return to a non-contaminated area if you taste or smell
contaminants; your eyes, nose, or throat become irritated; breathing
becomes difcult; you feel nauseous or dizzy; the breathing air becomes
uncomfortably warm; the facepiece moves, slips, or leaks; or any of the
end-of-service-life indicators (ESLIs) on the mercury vapor cartridge
turns gray.
• Do not use respirators in environments where ying sparks or chips may
damage the speaking diaphragm. Do not use respirators with damaged
speaking diaphragms.
• Do not alter or modify any respirator product.
• This respirator facepiece assembly contains natural rubber latex, which
may cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Discontinue use if you
experience an allergic reaction.

5
WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS—Continued
• Discontinue use if you experience skin irritation or discoloration.
• For use by trained, qualied personnel only.
• This product may provide less than adequate protection if improperly
used, resulting in personal injury, illness, or death.
• Following is a list of contaminants for which these respirators must
not be used. This list is far from complete. Please contact SPERIAN for
information on other contaminants.

A. HOW TO INSTALL CHEMICAL CARTRIDGES AND PARTICULATE FILTERS
1. Particulate Filters
Before using a particulate lter, you must conrm the atmosphere is non-IDLH
and not oxygen decient, the contaminant is a particulate hazard, and you must
determine the hazard ratio (hazard concentration/exposure limit). If the hazard
ratio is less than 10, you may use a half mask respirator with a lter efciency of
95% or higher. If the hazard ratio is less than 20, you may use a full facepiece
respirator with a lter efciency of 95% or higher. If the hazard ratio is less than
100, you may use a full facepiece respirator with a lter efciency of 99% or
higher. If the hazard ratio is greater than 100, you must use another type of
respirator.
N-series lters must only be used for non-oil containing aerosols or particulates.
R or P-series lters can be used if the atmosphere contains oil (e.g., lubricants,
cutting uids, glycerin, etc.). An R-series lter used in an oil containing atmosphere
must be replaced after each 8-hour work shift. A P-series lter can be used for
more than one 8-hour work shift.
Refer to NIOSH Guide to the Selection and Use of Particulate Respirators
Certied Under 42CFR84 for additional guidelines on use limitations for lters.

WARNING
Filters improperly used or improperly assembled to the facepiece could
cause leakage, which could lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
2. Mercury Vapor Cartridges
Special or Critical User’s Instructions: The mercury vapor cartridges incorporate
4 (four) end-of-service-life indicators (ESLIs). Each ESLI, yellow in color when
new, turns to gray when exposed to mercury vapor. Do not use these cartridges
unless you can distinguish between the safe and discard colors of the ESLI. The
indicators must be visible when wearing the respirator without having to manipulate
either the facepiece or the indicator. If the indicator cannot be seen, do not wear
the respirator. The cartridges must be replaced when the ESLIs change color from
yellow to gray, when the ESLIs become dirty or damaged, after 30 days of use, or
if removed from their original packaging and not used within 30 days. Never enter
or remain in a hazardous atmosphere if one or more of the ESLIs is gray.
3. Cartridge/Filter Installation
a) Ensure that you have the correct cartridge and/or lter type for the contaminants
in your work area. If you are not sure, consult your supervisor or safety
professional. See paragraph A.2. for special user’s instructions if you are using
Mercury Vapor Cartridges.
b) Install cartridges or P100 lters by threading them onto the facepiece
connectors. Hand-tighten to ensure a good seal against the facepiece. Do not
overtighten.
c) If using lter pads, insert the appropriate pad into the lter retainers so that the
side stamped with the part number will face toward the facepiece when installed.
Completely snap the lter retainers onto the cartridges or lter holders.
d) Inspect the lter through the retainer to ensure that the entire edge of the
lter is making contact with the retainer and the lter is not bunched or folded.
The outer diameter of the pad must be compressed between the top lip of the
cartridge or lter holder and the inner sealing ledge of the retainer. Install the
lter holders in the same manner as the cartridges.

B. HOW TO DON THE RESPIRATOR
WARNING
Always read cartridge labels prior to use to be certain that you have
cartridges and/or lters that will provide the required protection. Filters
labeled for protection against particulates only shall not be used for
gases/vapors, and cartridges labeled for protection against gases/vapors
only shall not be used for particulates. Both cartridges/lters must be
of the same type. The failure to comply with this warning may lead to
personal injury, illness, or death.
1. Inspect the respirator as described in section G.
2. Install cartridges/lters onto the inlet ports. Hand tighten, but do not
overtighten. See inset 1.
3. Position the bottom of the facepiece as low as possible under the chin while
positioning the narrow portion of the facepiece on the bridge of the nose.
Position the cradle headband above the ears so that it straddles the crown
of the head. See inset 2.
4. Hook the lower headband straps below the ears and around the back of
the neck. Adjust the upper headband by pulling both straps at the same
time. Adjust the lower headband straps in the same manner. Adjust the
headbands for a leak-tight t, but do not overtighten the straps. See
inset 3. For the Blue 1 respirator, you must remove the respirator to
adjust the headband strap slides as necessary for a leak-tight t, but do
not overtighten the straps.
5. Perform a t check before using the respirator.

8
C. HOW TO FIT CHECK THE RESPIRATOR
You must perform the following t check each time the respirator is worn.
WARNING
If you cannot obtain a leak-tight t, do not use the respirator. Consult
your supervisor or safety professional. Failure to comply with this warn-
ing may lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
1. Positive Pressure Fit Check: Hold the palm of your
hand gently over the exhalation valve outlet. Do not
distort the natural shape of the facepiece. Exhale
gently and hold your breath to create and maintain a
slight positive pressure inside the facepiece. See inset
1. If air leakage occurs, readjust the facepiece and
headbands, then retest.
2. Negative Pressure Fit Check: Cover the inlet of
the cartridges and/or lters with the palms of your
hands or another suitable item, such as a thin sheet
of plastic or rubber. When the respirator is equipped
with cartridges, lter retainers may be used as an
aid. Alternatively, the cartridges may be removed
to perform the t check. If removed, SPERIAN
recommends someone other than yourself reinstall
them after a leak-tight t is achieved. It is difcult for
the user to reinstall the cartridges without disturbing
the facepiece-to-face seal and to determine whether
the cartridges are correctly seated against the
facepiece. It is your responsibility to ensure that
the facepiece-to-face seal is not disturbed when
reinstalling the cartridges and that each cartridge is
sealed against the facepiece. Inhale gently and hold
your breath to slightly collapse the facepiece. See
inset 2. If air leakage occurs, readjust the facepiece
and headbands, then retest. If lter retainers are used,
do not remove them after the t check is completed.
Removing the lter retainers may shift the facepiece
and break the facepiece-to-face seal.

D. HOW TO USE THE RESPIRATOR
To receive the maximum protection available from the respirator, you must read,
understand, and follow all the warnings, limitations, and instructions contained in
this manual and follow your employer’s instructions on the use and maintenance
of this respirator. Read and understand the following warning prior to using the
respirator.
WARNING
• Never remove the respirator for any reason while you are in the work
area.
• You must leave the work area immediately if the facepiece-to-face seal is
disturbed for any reason, such as:
a. Slipping due to excessive sweating or excessive head movement.
b. The facepiece becomes dislodged as a result of being knocked.
c. You sneeze or cough while wearing the facepiece.
d. You need to blow your nose or scratch covered areas of your
face.
e. For any other reason that would cause the facepiece seal to be
disturbed.
• You must restore the facepiece-to-face seal and perform a t check in a
non-hazardous environment before reentering the work area.
• Failure to comply with this warning may lead to personal injury, illness,
or death.
E. CHEMICAL CARTRIDGE SERVICE LIFE AND REPLACEMENT
WARNING
• OSHA allows the use of respirators for protection against contaminants
with poor warning properties such as isocyanates. To maximize
protection against isocyanates and other chemicals with poor
warning properties, it is important to replace the cartridges when the
end-of-service-life indicator (if so equipped) has changed color, or in
accordance with an OSHA compliant cartridge change-out schedule
based on objective information or data that ensures the cartridges are
changed before the end of their service life.
• You must immediately leave the contaminated area if you taste or smell
contaminants, or if your eyes or throat become irritated. Replace the
cartridges before reentering the contaminated area.
• You must replace the combination cartridges when breathing becomes
uncomfortable or difcult. As particulates collect on the lter surface,
the breathing resistance of the respirator increases. If you wait too long
to replace the cartridges, particulates may leak past the face seal instead
of being collected on the lter; therefore, SPERIAN recommends that
the cartridges be changed at least daily.
9

10
WARNING—Continued
• Establishing the cartridge service life for mixtures of contaminants
is a complex task, and one that requires considerable professional
judgment to create a reasonable change-out schedule. OSHA provides
a “rule-of-thumb” method for determining the cartridge service life for
mixtures. The method addresses two situations. The rst is where the
individual compounds of the mixture have similar breakthrough times
(i.e., within one order of magnitude). In this case, OSHA recommends
adding the concentrations of all the components of the mixture to
determine a “total concentration,” then determine the mixture service
life by applying the total concentration to the component with the
shortest service life. The second is where individual compounds have
breakthrough times that vary by two orders of magnitude or greater.
In this case, OSHA recommends the mixture service life be based on
the contaminant with the shortest breakthrough time. The OSHA rule-
of-thumb methods may no be applicable for all mixtures. In some
cases, the actual mixture service life may be much lower than the one
calculated. For this reason, SPERIAN recommends that the cartridge
service life for mixtures be determined using experimental methods. If
you are unsure how to determine the cartridge service life for mixtures,
please contact SPERIAN.
• Failure to comply with this warning may lead to personal injury, illness,
or death.
The gas/vapor service life depends on the user’s breathing rate, the characteris-
tics of the contaminant, and environmental conditions such as temperature and
humidity. Saturated cartridges will leak trace amounts of contaminants to the
wearer, which may be detected by odor, taste, and/or irritation. Replace the car-
tridges when the end-of-service-life indicator (if so equipped) has changed color,
or in accordance with an OSHA-compliant cartridge change-out schedule that is
based on objective information or data that ensures that cartridges are changed
before the end of their service life. Replace the cartridges earlier if you detect the
contaminant by smell, taste, or irritation, or if either cartridge shows any signs of
damage. SPERIAN recommends cartridges be replaced daily even if the end-of-
service-life indicator has not changed color, or the change-out schedule is de-
termined to be greater than 1 day. Always replace cartridges in pairs. Replace
cartridges as follows:
1. Return to fresh air.
2. Unscrew and remove the used cartridges from the facepiece and dis-
pose of the used cartridges in accordance with Federal, state, and local
guidelines.
3. Install new cartridges, taken only from sealed packages, as described in
section A.
4. Perform a facepiece t check as described in section C.

11
F. PARTICULATE FILTER SERVICE LIFE AND REPLACEMENT
The lter service life depends on the lter series type used, the user’s breathing
rate, the characteristics of the contaminant, and environmental conditions such as
humidity. All N- and R-series lters should be replaced whenever they are dam-
aged, soiled, contaminated with water, or cause increased breathing resistance
such that the respirator becomes uncomfortable to wear. In addition, when an
R-series lter is used in an oil-containing atmosphere, the lter must be replaced
after each 8-hour work shift. SPERIAN recommends, due to considerations of
hygiene, that all lters be replaced at least daily, and more often if necessary.
Whether used in oil-containing or non-oil-containing atmospheres, SPERIAN rec-
ommends the lters be replaced daily because the user may be unable to detect
small defects in the lter, resulting in a loss of lter efciency, and the determina-
tion of when breathing resistance becomes too uncomfortable is subjective. Filters
should also be replaced in accordance with schedules established by regulatory
agencies.
WARNING
Failure to properly assemble lter pads to cartridges or lter holders can
cause leakage. Failure to comply with this warning may lead to personal
injury, illness, or death.
Replace lters as follows:
1. Return to fresh air.
2. If using P100 lters, unscrew and remove the used lters from the face-
piece and dispose of the used lters in accordance with Federal, state, and
local guidelines.
3. If using lter pads, remove the lter retainers from the cartridges or lter
holders. Remove the used lter pads and dispose of them in accordance
with Federal, state, and local guidelines. Clean the lter retainer and car-
tridge or holder if necessary.
4. Install new P100 lters or lter pads (taken only from sealed packages) as
described in section A.
5. Perform a facepiece t check as described in section C.

12
G. INSPECTION
Inspect this respirator for defects as described below before and after each use
and at least monthly if not used. Repair as necessary, clean and disinfect after
each use, and store properly to assure that the respirator is maintained in satis-
factory working condition. See section H for repair instructions. Keep a record of
inspection and repair dates, and results.
WARNING
• Do not use the respirator with damaged or improperly operating valves.
• Failure to comply with this warning may lead to personal injury, illness,
or death.
NOTE
If the respirator is equipped with a speaking diaphragm, do not remove it from
the facepiece for inspection.
1. Inspect the facepiece skirt for cuts, gouges, punctures, tears, nicks, and
deterioration from age, heat, or contamination, and the face seal area for
distortion.
2. Inspect the headbands for abrasions, cuts, nicks, loss of elasticity, or dete-
rioration from age, heat, or contamination.
3. Inspect the inhalation and exhalation valves for nicks, cracks, tears, or
creases, and the exhalation valve seat for nicks, cracks, or dents.
4. Check the exhalation valve for proper operation by exhaling through the
respirator and pausing before inhaling. The exhalation valve must close by
itself before inhaling. Replace valves which fail to close.
5. If the respirator is equipped with a speaking diaphragm, inspect it for
holes or tears by holding it up to a light and verifying that no light shines
through.

13
H. MAINTENANCE
Respirators should be cleaned after each day’s use by washing with mild soap and
warm water. Then disinfect the respirators with a suitable sanitizing solution. ANSI
Z88.2, latest edition, also provides information and guidelines on the cleaning and
sanitizing of respirators.
1. Cleaning
WARNING
• Specialized processes are required to disinfect and decontaminate a
respirator. You must follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the
equipment and chemicals.
• It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the processes chosen pro-
vide adequate cleaning, disinfection, and decontamination, and do not
damage the respirator in any way.
• In the absence of a commercial sanitizing product, the hypochlorite so-
lution described below will eliminate many, but not all biohazards.
• Failure to comply with this warning may lead to personal injury, illness,
or death.
CAUTION
• Do not use solvent type cleaners to clean any part of the respirator.
• Do not use sonic cleaners on respirators equipped with a speaking dia-
phragm.
a) Remove the cartridges and/or lters.
b) Immerse the facepiece in warm, soapy water and gently scrub with a soft
brush.
c) Rinse thoroughly in fresh water to remove all traces of soap, especially
from the exhalation valve.
d) Disinfect the facepiece in a warm, 120°F (48°C) maximum, suitable sanitiz-
ing solution, such as “hypochlorite” for 2 to 3 minutes. A hypochlorite solu-
tion can be prepared by mixing 2 tablespoons of chlorine bleach per each
gallon of water. Rinse thoroughly with fresh warm, 120°F (48°C) maximum
water.
e) Dry with a clean, lint-free cloth or allow to air dry. Warm air may be used.
f) Carefully inspect the respirator as described in section G. Reinstall the car-
tridges and/or lters before use.
2. Repair (See the Table at the End of this Manual for Replacement Parts)
a. Threaded Connector Replacement
1) Remove cartridges, P100 lters, or lter holders from the facepiece.
2) Remove the damaged threaded connector from the facepiece by pressing
it inward.

14
3) Insert a new connector, threaded end rst, from inside the facepiece.
Push the connector until the threads are clear and the connector ange is
securely seated.
b. Exhalation Valve Seat and Cover Replacement
1) Remove the exhalation valve cover using the small tab on the cover.
2) Remove the exhalation valve.
3) Remove the valve seat by pushing inward to disengage the seat from the
