described below provide protection to

EN 12941, OptiHood Demi and

OptiHood Full TH2, OptiTop TH3.

Hoods are designed for use by

competent personnel familiar with

workplace hazards and only in

conjunction with the OptimAir 3000

blower unit.

Do not use in atmospheres with

modified oxygen content [permissible

range 19 – 23 % see local regulation]

or if contamination levels are likely to

be immediately dangerous to health.

Do not use the equipment if the head

cap or air hose is damaged, check for

cracks splits and tears, which will

cause leakage.

Protection will only be obtained if the

unit is fitted correctly; hair, spectacle

side arms etc must not intrude into

the face seal.

Protection levels may be reduced if

wind speed exceeds 2 meters per

second and at very high work rates

pressure in the device may become

negative at peak inhalation flow. In

such event other forms of respiratory

protective should be considered.

2. Pre Use

2.1 OptiHood Demi and Full

Prior to first use the head harness

must be adjusted to fit by sliding the

nap strap clip to the appropriate snug

fit and the hose connection made.

2.2 OptiTop

Assemble hood to helmet & air

management ring (see sketches).

Then assemble connector to rear of

management ring trapping and

sealing hood to ring, finally tighten

clamp on hose with the correct

orientation between the hood and

blower unit.

Always check airflow from the blower

prior to use.

3. Wearing

3.1 OptiHood Demi (Fig.1 - 3)

Pull the face piece over the head so

that the visor is in front of the face

and arrange the elastic face seal

under the chin. If necessary adjust the

over head [1] and nape straps [2] for

a comfortable gapless fit between the

face and the hood, it must be ensured

that the elasticated edge of the hood

fits snugly against the skin particularly

down the sides of the face adjacent to

the ears.

3.2 OptiHood Full (Fig. 4 - 6)

Don the face piece as for the

OptiHood Demi then adjust the

drawstring for a comfortable snug but

not tight fit around the neck always

ensure that you can place your

fingers under the drawstring against

your throat without force or

discomfort.

3.3 OptiTop (Fig. 7 - 9)

Adjust the headband such that the

hood fits comfortably and adjust the

drawstring for a comfortable snug but

not tight fit around the neck always

ensure that you can place your

fingers under the drawstring against

your throat without force or

discomfort. The visor, eye protector,

conforms to EN 166:1995 and is only

suitable for the uses marked on the

lens. (see Table 1) If the lens

becomes scratched or damaged the

hood should be replaced. The helmet

system consists of a shell and

suspension which work together as a

unit conforming to EN 397:1995

(options as indicated on the helmet

and in Table 2) and must not be

modified. Place helmet on the head

and push down until comfortable

wearing height is reached. The

suspension size can be adjusted

between sizes 52 and 64 by turning

the knob. The Helmet provides limited

protection. It reduces the effect of

objects striking the top of the shell but

does not provide significant protection

against lateral impact. Avoid contact

with live wires. Do not place objects

between the suspension, shell or

wearers head.

3.4 General

Arrange the breathing tube so that it

trails freely down the back and is not

kinked or looped and cannot be

inadvertently pinched. After use do

not remove the face piece until clear

of the hazard zone. Remove the

hood, disconnecting hose and if

necessary use a moist rag to clean

and sanitise the face piece and hose.

Care should be taken to avoid

scratching the visor. Any damaged

components should be replaced.

4. Cleaning

The devices should be cleaned with

mild soap (no detergents) in

lukewarm water or approved sanitizer

and rinsed thoroughly in clean water.

Use only soft clean cloths to polish

the visor. Avoid skin infections by

regularly cleaning the helmet and

suspension. The air distribution

system should only be cleaned on the

outside. Ambient air-dry only.

OptiHood Demi and Full are

disposable items without user

replaceable parts. It must be stored in
