Product

1Product

The MSA left/RIGHT series consists of a range of ear-muffs with a level-dependent facility designed to

improve safety and working conditions in noisy environments. It consists of the following versions:

This manual is applicable for all versions. If a function is only available for certain versions, it is mentioned.

left/RIGHT Wireless World and left/RIGHT Wireless World Dual provide an entertainment audio facility. For

optimum comfort, fit and function of the product, it is important to read the instructions carefully and save

them for future reference.

WARNING!

To ensure proper hearing protection, the ear-muffs must be fitted, adjusted and maintained in accor-

dance with MSA‘s instructions. If these instructions are not adhered to, the protection afforded by the

ear muffs could be severly impaired.

Do not disassemble the ear-muffs. If any unauthorized repair or modification has been carried out on

the device, warranty is no longer valid.

left/RIGHT Wireless World and left/RIGHT Wireless World Dual have an entertainment audio facility.

The audibility of warning signals at a specific workplace may be impaired while using the entertainment

facility. These versions limit the entertainment audio signal to 82 dB(A) effective at the ear.

Remember that hearing protectors may shut out external ambient sounds, such as warning shouts,

alarms and other important signals. The audibility of warning signals at a specific workplace may be

impaired while using the entertainment facility. The user must be especially attentive of the surround-

ings when wearing hearing protection.

Depending on the model, this ear-muff is provided with level-dependant attenuation and/or electrical

audio output. The wearer should check correct operation before use. If distortion or failure is detected,

the wearer should refer to the manufacturers advice for maintenance and replacement of the battery.

Performance may deteriorate with battery usage. The battery life time varies depending on the mode

of use and volume output. The typical period of continuous use that can be expected from the ear-muff

battery is:

- Surround and Bluetooth active: approximately 30 h

- Surround only and Bluetooth inactive: approximately 350 h

The output of the level-dependent circuit of this hearing protector may exceed the external sound level.

The output of the electrical audio circuit of this hearing protector may exceed the daily limit sound level.

Refer to the attenuation table for further details on noise reduction. Make sure to select the correct product

for the application.

These models of ear-muffs have satisfied the optional requirements of thermal resistance at -20 °C and

+50 °C.

Fitting

4Fitting

The cushions should snugly fit the head with no interference of the seal by any objects e.g. respirator head-

bands or spectacle arms, the cups should completely enclose the ears. Before putting on the device, brush

excess hair aside and remove any jewellery that could affect acoustic seal.

Headband version

(1) Ensure that the headband is positioned correctly before putting it on.

The inside of the headband is marked with a letter L on the left hand side and a letter R on the

right hand side.

(2) With the headband over the head, adjust the height of the cups by sliding them up or down so they

completely enclose the ears (see Fig. 1).

Helmet version

These ear-muffs should be fitted to, and used only with, the following industrial safety helmets:

3 sets of adapters are provided with the device. Before the ear muffs can be attached to the helmet, the

adapters have to be installed.

(1) Attach the correct adapter (see Fig. 11) to the helmet (see table above).

(2) Ensure that the cups are mounted on the correct side of the helmet. The cup marked with L must be

put on the left hand side of the helmet and the cup marked with R must be put on the right hand side

of the helmet.

(3) Pull the ear cup down the fork as far as possible.

(4) Push the attachment clip firmly into the slot on the side of the helmet until it clicks into place

(see Fig. 2).

(5) Detach the head harness at two places at the rear of the helmet (see Fig. 3) and place the cord from

the cups above the harness attachment.

(6) Reattach the harness.

Ensure the cord is not tangled.

(7) For the working position, press the cups toward the ears until they click into place. Adjust the height

of the cups by sliding them up or down so they completely enclose the ears (see Fig. 4).

The grommet of the cable and the antenna is positioned inside the fork (see Fig. 12).

(8) Stand-by position: Pull the cups away from the ears until they lock into the stand-by position

(see Fig. 5).

(9) Parking Position: From the stand-by position, move the cups to the rear of the helmet until they click

into place. In this position, the cushions do not get damaged or dirty and the cups can dry

(see Fig. 6).

Ear Muffs

NOTE: Do not press the cups onto the helmet shell as this will lock the spring in the ear-muff arm, and

damage the attachment slots on the side of the helmet.

(10) Storage Position: When the helmet is not in use, lower the ear-muffs and push them inwards until

they click into place (see Fig. 7).

WARNING!

In noisy environments, the ear-muffs must be worn in the working position at all times.

The fitting of hygiene covers to the cushions may affect the acoustic performance of the ear-muffs.

5 Ear Muffs

Sizes

All ear-muffs of this series are ‘Medium size range’ ear-muffs and will fit the majority of wearers.

6Storage

When the ear-muffs are not in use, store them without stretching the headband and without compressing

the cushions. Keep the ear-muffs dry and clean, store them at normal room temperature and do not place

them in direct sunlight.

If the product is to be stored for a prolonged period, remove the batteries to avoid damage.

7 Maintenance

Inspect the ear-muffs regularly for serviceability. Ear-muffs, and in particular cushions, may deteriorate with

use and should be examined at frequent intervals for cracking and leakage, for example at the start of every

work shift. Clean and disinfect the cups, cushions and inserts with mild soap and water only. The ear-muffs

must not be immersed in water. This product may be adversely affected by certain chemical substances.

Further information should be sought from the manufacturer. Do not subject the product to rough handling,

which can damage the electronics.

Dispose of the product and batteries in accordance with national and local regulations.

7.1 Hygiene Kit

The cushions and inserts are replaceable. Always replace worn or damaged parts. Remove the cushion by

pulling it straight out (see Fig. 8). Replace the old cushion and insert with new ones from the hygiene kit

(see Fig. 9). Use only hygiene kits from MSA.

7.2 Batteries

Only use batteries with 1,5 rated voltage (rechargeable or non-rechargeable). The use of rechargeable

batteries such as NiMH 1.2 V or NiCd 1.2 V will significantly reduce operating time.

Replacing the Batteries

Turn the device off during battery replacement.

The battery compartment is located in the left cup (see Fig. 10). To install new batteries, remove the lid and

insert the batteries, starting with the upper battery. Make sure that the + and – poles are correctly aligned.

Replace the lid.
