PAPR Assembly
1. Insert the charged battery into the bottom of the blower.
2. Verify the filters are tightly seated (finger tight plus at least 1/8 additional turn)
3. Initial assembly, slide the hose cover to the desired location on the hose and
secure and trim the hose cover ties.
4. Attach the air hose to the blower.
5. Attach the air hose to the head piece.
Check before each use
Fully charge the battery before first use.
Before each use, make sure that:
• all the components are intact, with no damage. Do not use the blower if it has any
cracks, holes or leaks. Change the damaged or worn parts before use. Maintain
air hoses and sealing elements in good condition.
• the hose is properly and tightly connected to the blower and to the headpiece.
• air is supplied to the headpiece after the blower is turned on.
• there is a sufficient level of air flow from the blower.
Powering blower on and off
The blower unit is turned on or off by pressing the button on the unit's control
panel for at least 2 seconds.
Adjust air flowrate
Once the blower unit is on, it can be toggled between low (160 lpm) and high (210 lpm)
flowrates by briefly pressing the power button. The maximum air flowrate
mode provides the user with more cooling and additional airflow for strenuous
work, but at reduced battery life. At low temperatures, the higher air flow may be
uncomfortable.
Displays and Alarms
The R60 AIRMAX ELITE blower is equipped with an advanced control system which
®
maintains the selected air flow at a constant rate throughout the charge of the
battery and regardless of the level of filter clogging. In case the system is not able
to maintain the high air flowrate, it automatically switches to the low flowrate mode.
In case of a further decrease of the air flow (under the minimal limit of 160 lpm),
audio and vibration alarms go off and the display flashes. In this case, the user
must stop working immediately, leave the contaminated area and change either
the filters or the battery (or, if necessary, to charge the battery).
