3.1 Main body of PRF-101 has two choices of filters. Those are 101D and 101G.（refer to 6.2）
3.2 This product has four choices of air-supply hood
A2 air-supply helmet.、M1 air-supply hood、M2 air-supply hood、M3 air-supply hood（refer to 6.3）
4、Installation
Ready for use after tightly connecting the breath tube, main body and air-supply hood(refer to Fig 1).
5、Application
5.1 Tightly connect the battery with the main body by using spring wire.，put the main body and battery into the bum-bag， adjust the belt according to each person’s instance，put the hoop of air-supply hood in a suitable place，put the respirator on，turn on the power，it will then work. The powered respirator is equipped electronic warning system, when battery energy is low, electronic warning system will buzz, and then power will be off automatically.
5.2 Attention
5.2.1 Before the product is put into use, the battery must be charged up. In duration of operation, this product must be switched on; otherwise no dust control may be gained. It is prohibited to short connect the product or put it into fire. The battery must be recharged up if it doesn’t work for at least two months. Main body（battery is charged up）can work for 8 hours continuously. If it works for more than 8 hours, standby battery must be prepared.
5.2.2 Prior to entering contaminated operating conditions, please wear this product and switch on the power supply.
5.2.3 There may be a tiny gap in the sections between head cover and face or neck. Please do not worry about it. Because it remains positive pressure within the facial mask, outside dust particles and gases could not get in.
5.2.4 It shall be avoided damaging the air pipe tube or exposure to open flame or sparks. However, if such exposure in operating conditions is unavoidable, the air pipe shall be covered with a flame-resistant lag.
5.2.5 Enough care shall be given to the cleanness of both individual head and bonnet. The bonnet may be washed with water but glasses damage shall be avoided during bonnet washing.
5.2.6 After each work the product must be taken away from the work area and conserved airproof. Otherwise the filter will continue to work so that the life will be shorted.
5.2.7 This product is unsuitable to anoxic (i.e. oxygen content less than 18%) or explosive operating conditions, or IDLH concentration (Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health).
5.3 Replace for filter and gasket:
5.3.1For 101D、101G high efficiency particulate filter：Filter changing is necessary when you feel much less or no fresh air get in even with enough power supply from the battery, resulting from the fact that the filter may have been filled with fine particles in such case. Take out the filter and knock the windward side so that much dust could be knocked out. Use the soft dry cloth or paper wipe the filter. Put the filter into main body thus it can continue to work.. After used time after time the filter may be full of dust, thus may change the filter.
5.3.2 In duration of filter changing, if the purified cavity in the main body kit was contaminated by fine dust from the edge of the filter, the cavity shall be cleaned, otherwise, the dust control effects may be diminished. Subsequent to filter changing, due attention shall be paid to tighten the back cover of the main body kit and secure the filter.
5.3.3 The aneroid chamber and filter member were cleaned up prior to use the respirator, or a new filter, reeking out an unpleasant odor and dust from the breathing tube while using process, that would be likely the gasket in aneroid chamber of service life too long to lose its elasticity resulting of poor sealing, here it is necessary replacing a new gasket to ensure well sealing of respirator.
5.3.4 The filter 101D、101G shall not be exposed to water or moisture. If any such exposure, please change in time either.
5.4 Charging
5.4.1 When you feel much less or even no air get in with a new filter or a filter before the expiration date, when the battery energy is low, electronic warning system will buzz, then the batteries need to be changed accordingly.
5.4.2 The aperture in the battery compartment is for power supply or charging use. In charging, please make sure to switch on the battery, otherwise no charging could be made.
5.4.3With the power switches on, insert the charger plug into the aperture in the battery compartment (socket), and connect the charger to 100 ~ 240V alternative current power supply and the charging is in progress.
5.4.4 When the charger begins operation, the indicator will turn red indicating the initiation of charging and then turn green indicating the completion of it.
5.4.5 With first use, more than 12hrs charge is needed and with routine use thereafter,5hrs charge is enough. The intelligent charger may avoid batter damage resulting from overcharge.
