Instructions on using the fastener system

The fastener system has been developed especially for the
chemical protective suits. Generally, the additional seals make
mobility more difficult in comparison to zip fasteners on normal
clothing. To prevent creases in the fastener system, the
protective suit wearer must grasp and pull the fastener system
to the hood, while a second person pulls the trouser leg with
the fastener system down using both hands until the fastener
system is free of creases. The protective suit wearer should be
standing upright when opening and closing the fastener
system.
CAUTION
!
To avoid damage to the fastener system, both halves
of the zip must be parallel and unstressed. Do not use
force when opening and closing the fastener system or
jerk the zipper.
Fastener systems without sufficient lubrication are
more difficult to operate. This can result in damage to
the fastener system. Lubricate the fastener system
using the grease stick supplied by Dräger.

4.2.2 Closing the fastener system
When closing the fastener system, avoid diagonal forces

Preparation for use

4.3.1 Preparing the chemical protective suit
NOTICE
i i
Dräger recommends that you keep the flat bags in
which the chemical protective suit was delivered for
later storage purposes.
1. Check for leaks before using the suit for the first time in
order to detect any damage due to transport. Observe the
maintenance intervals thereafter (see Chap. 6.1 on
Page 26).
2. Place the chemical protective suit flat on the ground and
examine visually (see Chap. 6.2 on Page 27).
WARNING
!
Do not use a damaged chemical protective suit. If you
do, you risk death or serious injury.
3. If fitted, check the function of the ventilation unit and the
connection to the compressed air breathing apparatus. If
there are no compressed air hoses are connected, seal the
connections of the air supply unit to protect against dirt.
4. Treat the full face mask visor from outside using "klar-pilot"
anti-fogging gel. Use the spray "klar-pilot" Comfort for
coated mask visors. If the suit is not fitted with an antifog
visor, also treat the inside of the visor.
