ment. Clean the sealing rib around battery compartment and sealing face
of the cover, shown in FIGURE 7, by wiping with a clean damp cloth to
remove any dirt or foreign matter which might prevent a proper seal. Check
cover gasket for tears or cuts. If damage is found, remove respirator from
service and tag for repair by authorized personnel.

tabs on the battery compartment and tighten the cover screw. The cover

condition (cylinder valve closed with no ashing green LED on the control
console).

console indicates sufcient battery power and that the batteries are
properly installed.

that the batteries are properly installed. If the batteries were properly
installed, remove the batteries and replace with a new set of six (6)
batteries.
c) If another set of properly installed batteries will still not produce a
GREEN light on the battery test, remove the unit from service and mark
for repair by authorized personnel.
AFTER REPLACEMENT OF BATTERIES, PERFORM A REGULAR
OPERATIONAL INSPECTION BEFORE RETURNING RESPIRATOR TO
