2.5 Taking the hood off
Leave the work area before taking the hood off.
• Release the neck strap by releasing the buckle. Grip the top part
of the hood with both hands and pull the hood upwards/forward.
In emergency situations, the neck strap can be released without
releasing the buckle: Grip the neck strap with one hand on each
side of the buckle and pull firmly.
Releasing the compressed air tube / breathing hose
Both couplings are of safety type and are released in two stages.
Fig 5.
• Push the coupling towards the nipple.
• Pull the locking ring back.
2.6 Warnings/limitations
Warnings
As a general rule, the user must ensure that he will always be able to
retreat to a safe area without risk if the air supply should cease or if
he must remove the equipment for some other reason.
The equipment must not be used
• If the ambient air does not have normal oxygen content.
• If the pollutants are unknown.
• In environments that are Immediately Dangerous to Life and
Health (IDLH).
• With oxygen or oxygen-enriched air.
• If you find that breathing is difficult.
• If you can smell or taste the pollutants.
• If you feel dizzy or nauseous, or if you suffer any other type of
discomfort.
• If the warning whistle comes into operation, which indicates
that the air supply is lower than recommended.
Limitations
• In explosive or flammable environments, follow the regulations
that may be in force for such conditions.
• The air supply system should be equipped with an appropriately
rated and adjusted pressure relief safety valve.
• If your work intensity is very high, a partial vacuum may occur
in the facepiece during the peak of the inhalation phase, and
pollutants from the surroundings may then be drawn into the
facepiece.
• Use of the equipment together with spiral hose SR 360 is
restricted to situations in which there is little risk of damage
to the hose and if the freedom of movement of the user can
be restricted.
• A risk assessment has to be done to avoid possible perilous
connections possible at the workplace, e.g. Nitrox.
• The SR 63 is not approved for use with a mobile compressed
air system.

4. Maintenance
Personnel who are responsible for maintenance of the equipment
shall be trained and well acquainted with this type of work.
4.1 Cleaning
Use a piece of soft cloth or a sponge dipped in a solution of water
and dishwashing detergent or the like. Rinse and leave to dry. In

temperature. Avoid direct sunlight.
4.3 Maintenance schedule
The schedule below shows the minimum requirements on main-
tenance routines to assure the user that the equipment will always
be in usable condition.
Visual inspection
Functional check
Cleaning
