WARNING WARNINGs point out dangerous steps in the procedures in this manual. Your safety depends on following the instructions included in all WARNINGs. Several general WARNINGs are included below: • It is important to properly clean your mask. A dirty mask will compromise its ability to provide maximum protection. • If you have not used your mask for 30 days or more, perform all PMCS prior to using your mask. • You must check your mask assembly for leaks when fitted and each time mask assembly is put on. A leaky mask assembly will not protect you from toxic agents. • Perform the steps for putting on your mask quickly. You must put the facepiece assembly on before you take another breath. DO NOT wear contact lenses. Contact lenses will over correct vision while wearing optical inserts. DO NOT change canister in a contaminated area. • DO NOT wear contact lenses with your mask assembly. • DO NOT wear contact lenses (soft or hard) while wearing CB protective masks. Inadequate oxygen supply to the corneal surface, exposure to dust, dirt, and smoke/gas may cause serious vision loss or eye damage. Warfighters requiring vision correction are provided optical inserts for their protective masks. • DO NOT use the mask assembly if outlet valve disk or outlet valve cover is missing or damaged. The mask assembly will leak.
a
WARNING (CONT.) • DO NOT use mask assembly if inlet valve body or inlet valve disk are missing. The mask assembly will leak. • DO NOT use tissue paper or a paper towel to remove dirt or moisture from outlet valve cover, outlet valve disk, or outlet valve seat. Paper may break up and lodge in outlet valve area, causing leakage. • DO NOT connect the drink tube to your canteen until all mating surfaces have been checked and are free of contamination. Chemical agents could be swallowed, resulting in sickness or death. • Fill your plastic water canteen before entering contaminated area, or, if in a contaminated area, fill canteen inside a protective shelter. • If resistance is not felt, drinking system is leaking. DO NOT drink. Replace canteen. If resistance is still not felt, notify CBRN NCO for maintenance. • If resistance is not felt, drinking system is leaking. Notify CBRN NCO to repair or replace mask. • To prevent possible leakage around mask assembly, DO NOT pull on external drink tube when removing canteen. • Care should be taken not to break the mask assembly seal while pressing in on the outlet valve cover. • When putting on your helmet, be sure not to break the seal between your mask and the side of your face. Toxic agents could leak into your mask. • The waterproof bag is to be used for waterborne operations only. b
• In cold weather, DO NOT clear mask by exhaling a large volume of air. Moist air will frost eyelenses and impair vision. • If you become overheated in extremely cold weather, do not remove your mask outdoors until your face and head have cooled and any sweat has dried. Frostbite may result if mask is removed while your face is still wet. • Any solid matter under outlet valve disk will cause leakage. • DO NOT allow dirt or foreign material to remain in carrier. Dirt or foreign material in carrier may get into valves, causing them to leak. • Make sure the gasket is present in the hose fitting before connecting the canister to the hose. A missing gasket will affect the seal and will allow the wearer to inhale contaminated air. • Star knob must be tight or movement of the hose may cause it to loosen and leak.
c
WARNING (CONT.) HEALTH/ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. There are two Mask Canisters, the C2 and the C2A1. • The C2 canister contains Chromium VI, and damaged or unusable canisters are considered Hazardous Waste. (Chromium VI is a known carcinogen if inhaled or swallowed.) • The C2A1 canister is chromium-free but must continue to be disposed of in accordance with State and Local Environmental Laws. • DO NOT throw away damaged or unusable canisters as ordinary trash. • DO turn in damaged or unusable canisters to your hazardous waste management office or Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office (DRMO).

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL The safest, easiest, and best way to use these CB Masks (M40A1/M42A2) is to follow the instructions in this manual. Knowing what is in this manual and how to use it will save you time and work, and will help you save your life when fighting in a Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear (CBRN) environment.
ORGANIZATION The table of contents on page iii provides easy access to the manual. Pages are numbered consecutively within each chapter; each page number is prefixed with the Work Package (WP) number. For example, page 2 of WP 0004 is numbered 0004-2. This manual is divided into five chapters. Chapter 1 contains general information, equipment description, and theory of operation. Chapter 2 provides operating instructions for the M40A1 and the M42A2 masks, including operation of the mask under usual conditions and unusual conditions. Chapter 3 provides a malfunction index and troubleshooting procedures. Chapter 4 provides instructions for operator maintenance procedures, including preventive maintenance checks and services (PMCS). Chapter 5 contains supporting information, such as the Additional Authorization List and identifies supplies used in maintaining these masks. Each section of the manual is further divided into three parts. The first addresses common procedures that are the same regardless of which mask you are using. The second addresses those tasks that are peculiar to the M40A1 and the third addresses those peculiar to the M42A2. Therefore, depending on which mask you are using, you must follow the instructions in the common procedures and the procedures that are peculiar to your mask. v
ORGANIZATION (CONT) For instance, if you have the M40A1 mask, you must do the Before PMCS checks under COMMON and those under the M40A1 PECULIAR. Those tasks listed under the M42A2 are not required. Those tasks which are considered to be COMMON and apply to either mask are illustrated using the M40A1. However, the differences between the M40A1 and the M42A2 do not impact on the task, and, in many cases, you will not be able to tell from the illustration which mask is being illustrated.
HOW TO FIND PROCEDURES If you are using the manual to perform Troubleshooting, go to (WP 0007) and read the instructions there. If you are going to do operator level scheduled maintenance, you can turn directly to Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS), (WP 0008), and proceed according to the instructions there. The PMCS table provides procedures for checks and services to be performed before (WP 0008-5 for M40A1/M42A2) (WP 0008-10 for M42A2 only), during (WP 0008-11 for M40A1/M42A2) (WP 0008-12 for M42A2 only), and after (WP 0008-13 for M40A1/M42A2) (WP 000833 for M42A2 only) using the mask. If you are performing a task under usual conditions, go to the table of contents and find the first page of that section. There is a secondary table of contents on the first page of that section. It will tell you the page in WP 0005 where your task begins. For example, if you wish to don your mask, proceed to WP 0005-1. On the first page of this work package you will find a table of contents that will tell you on which page the task begins. Turn to the page and follow the instructions to put on and use your mask under usual conditions. vi

EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION AND DATA
0002
EQUIPMENT CHARACTERISTICS, CAPABILITIES, AND FEATURES COMMON The lightweight, Chemical Biological (CB) masks (M40A1 / M42A2) are easy to prepare for transport and storage. The mask assembly is kept dry, when required by climate and mission, by a waterproof bag and stored in a carrier made of mildew-resistant, water repellent fabric. The facepiece is made of silicone rubber with an inturned sealing surface so it can provide protection to face, eyes, and respiratory tract from CB agents, toxins and radioactive particles. The mask assembly is not intended for use in an oxygen deficient environment. Neither is it intended to provide protection against carbon monoxide or ammonia. It forms a comfortable seal on a Warfighter’s face as it protects against adverse elements. The mask assembly is equipped with both front and side voicemitters for ease of communication and an outlet valve body with a drinking system. To ensure a comfortable fit, the mask assembly is issued in three sizes: small, medium and large which are marked with S, M and L on the forehead. It is also equipped with clear and neutral gray outserts to protect the eyelens from scratches, reduce sun glare and prevent fogging in cold weather. The masks have a second skin or universal second skin, which fits to the facepiece and protects the facepiece from liquid agents, and a quick doff hood (if applicable) made of lightweight, butyl rubbercoated fabric, which provides protection to the head and neck from liquid toxic chemical agents. The second skin or universal second skin is issued in two sizes: small and medium/large which are marked S and M/L on the exterior left cheek. 0002 - 1

THEORY OF OPERATION
0003
M40A1 THEORY OF OPERATION Air enters the CANISTER (1), which is screwed into the side of the mask. The canister filters out Chemical Biological (CB) agents, toxins, and radioactive fallout particles from contaminated air. Filtered air then passes over the AIRFLOW DEFLECTOR (2) which is located inside the facepiece and on the same side as the canister. The air then moves into the eye area of the facepiece. From the eye area, filtered air enters the NOSECUP (3) through NOSECUP VALVES (4). Filtered air from the nosecup is inhaled by the Warfighter. Exhaled air is passed through the nosecup area and out through the OUTLET VALVE DISK (5). The OUTLET VALVE COVER (6) protects the outlet valve body from contamination and damage, and enhances protection by surrounding the outlet valve disk with clean air. Provides a retainer for the external drink tube and QDC.

CHAPTER 4. OPERATOR MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS OPERATOR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS AND SERVICES (PMCS)
0008
INTRODUCTION TO PMCS TABLE GENERAL The Operator Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) table has been provided so you can keep your equipment in good operating condition. The PMCS table is arranged to provide procedures for checks and services to be performed before, during, and after operation of the mask. A thorough initial inspection to include sizing, fitting, fit testing, and after use inspection is critical to ensure it is providing you with maximum protection. If you have not used your mask for a lengthy period of time, specific checks are required in addition to the before checks to assure that your mask is ready to be used. Shortcomings which DO NOT limit the equipment operational capability (form, fit, or function) are not noted in this TM. These minor discrepancies should be attended to and maintained to prevent them from becoming deficiencies. The following paragraphs provide information on how to use the PMCS tables. Report any malfunctions or failures on DA Form 2404, or refer to DA PAM 738-750.
0008 - 1
INTRODUCTION TO PMCS TABLE (CONT) INSPECTIONS The most detailed inspection and PMCS of your mask is accomplished after each time you use it and when you first receive it. The BEFORE, DURING and AFTER PMCS checks are designed to assure that the mask is ready for use without causing you to spend a lot of time on your mask before beginning a mission. Therefore, it is vital, for your safety, that you perform all of the checks in the interval listed. BEFORE PMCS assure that all the parts of your mask are present and verify the most important components of the mask are operational. The DURING PMCS procedures check those items which are most readily checked while operating the mask. The AFTER PMCS procedures provide a detailed check of the mask to assure that any items which are not performing properly are repaired prior to any additional use. In the event that you have not used your mask for a lengthy period of time, perform all BEFORE, DURING, and AFTER PMCS prior to using the mask. This will allow you to correct any problems which may have occurred during storage.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS WARNINGs and CAUTIONs appear before the applicable procedures. You must observe all WARNINGs and CAUTIONs to prevent serious injury to yourself or others and to prevent damage to your equipment.
PMCS PROCEDURES The following paragraphs describe the information presented in each column of the PMCS table. 0008 - 2
ITEM NUMBER COLUMN Numbers in this column are for reference. Item numbers also appear in the order that you must do checks and services for the intervals listed. Record any faults that you discover before, during, or after operation. You DO NOT need to record faults that you fix.
INTERVAL COLUMN This column tells you when you must do the procedure in the procedure column. Do your BEFORE PMCS just before you operate the mask or deploy. Do your DURING PMCS while you are using the mask. Do your AFTER PMCS right after use or before you store it.
ITEM TO CHECK/SERVICE COLUMN This column identifies the item to be checked or serviced.
PROCEDURE COLUMN This column gives the procedure you must do to check or service the item listed in the Item to Check/Service column. This will tell you if the equipment is ready or available for the intended mission or for operation. You must do the procedure at the time stated in the interval column.
NOT FULLY MISSION CAPABLE IF: COLUMN Information in this column only tells you what deficiencies will keep your mask from being capable of operating safely. DO NOT use your mask if a check and service shows a fault listed in this column. Shortcomings or minor discrepancies which DO NOT limit operational capability or safety of use may require corrective actions and Continued surveillance, but does not “deadline” the mask. 0008 - 3
PMCS PROCEDURES (CONT) OTHER TABLE ENTRIES Be sure to observe all special information and notes that appear in your table.
NOTE Within each section of the PMCS table, tasks are divided into those which are common to both the M40A1 and M42A2, as well as those peculiar only to the M42A2. Perform all tasks which are common and peculiar to your mask.
