WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS CONTINUED
• Some individuals are sensitive to chemicals (e.g. isocyanates, latex, oil mists, etc.)
or may have some type of respiratory disorder (e.g. asthma, chronic obstructive
airway disease, etc.). If you are sensitive to any chemical or have a respiratory
disorder, you may have a severe reaction at contaminant levels well below accepted
health levels, such as the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL), AHIA Threshold
Limit Value (TLV), or the NIOSH Recommended Exposure Limits (REL). Many
chemicals (e.g. isocyanates, mercury, etc.) have no physical warning properties and
you cannot taste or smell the contaminants even though they may be present in the
respirator facepiece. This respirator will reduce, but will not eliminate the possibility
of contaminates entering the facepiece and causing a severe reaction.
• For use by trained, qualified personnel only.
• This product may provide less than adequate protection if improperly used, resulting
in personal injury, serious illness or death.
• Following is a list of contaminants for which these respirators must not be used.
