How to use F2 full face mask - 6 step visual guide
1

Attach the upper straps

Clip the upper ends of the headgear strap onto the top connectors of the mask frame before putting it on.

2

Position the mask on your face

Lower the headgear over your head and rest the mask cushion gently over your nose and mouth, centering it before tightening anything.

3

Attach the lower straps

Holding the mask steady with one hand, clip the lower headgear straps to the bottom connectors on either side of the frame.

4

Adjust the lower straps

Pull the lower strap tabs evenly on both sides until snug. It should feel secure but not tight — you shouldn't see red marks after removal.

5

Fine-tune the seal

Press lightly around the cushion edge to check for a full seal. Adjust the top strap if there's a gap near your nose bridge.

6

Connect the air hose

Attach the main air hose to the front connector port. Turn on your device and confirm air is flowing freely with no leaks.

Tip: If you notice persistent air leaks or red pressure marks, the strap tension is usually the culprit — loosen slightly and re-check the seal before over-tightening. Cushions also lose their seal over time; most manufacturers recommend replacing them every 1–3 months.
