Donning the Protective Suit

When donning the protective suit a second person (assistant) is required to help.
Suspenders can be supplied by MSA as an option including a supplementary sheet
for donning. They keep the suit held in position better.
The suspenders do not form part of the supply of the EC prototype test!
