Perform a positive and/or negative pressure fit check each time the
respirator is donned.
Positive pressure Face Fit check (all Filters except 3M™ 6035,
6038 / 2000 Series Filters).
1. Place the palm of the hand over the exhalation valve cover
and exhale gently.
2. If the respirator bulges slightly and no air leakage between the
face and the respirator is detected, a proper fit has been
achieved.
3. If air leakage is detected, reposition the respirator on the face
and/or readjust the tension of the strap to eliminate the
leakage.
4. Repeat the above face fit check.
5. If you cannot achieve a proper fit, do not enter the
contaminated area. See your supervisor.
Negative pressure face fit check (3M™ 6035, 6038 / 2000
Series Filters)
1. Push the filter cover down or press your thumbs into the
central indentation of the filters, inhale gently and hold your
breath for five or ten seconds.
2. If the respirator collapses slightly, a proper fit has been
achieved.
3. If air leakage is detected, reposition the respirator on the face
and/or readjust the tension of the straps to eliminate the
leakage.
4. Repeat the above face fit check.
5. If you cannot achieve a proper fit, do not enter the
contaminated area. See your supervisor.

PART
Before assigning any respirator to be worn in a contaminated area,
we recommend that a qualitative or quantitative fit check be
performed before entering the workplace.
Fitting instructions must be followed each time the respirator is
worn.
1. Place the respirator over the mouth and nose, then pull the
harness over the crown of the head.
2. Take the bottom straps in both hands, place them at the back
of the neck and hook them together.
3. Tighten the top straps first by pulling on ends to achieve a
comfortable and secure fit.
4. Tighten bottom straps using either front or rear adjustments.
(Strap tension may be decreased by pushing out on back side
of buckles).
