Planning

• Thoroughly understand procedures and equipment required before

beginning work.

• Arrange for minimal disruptions, such as room traffic or entry into the

room while the hood is in use.


Start-up

• Turn on exhaust system and accessory light if so equipped.

• Only raise the sash for loading.

• Check the baffle air slots for obstructions.

• Allow the enclosure to operate unobstructed for 1 minute.

• Wear a long sleeved lab coat and rubber gloves. Use protective

eyewear. Wear a protective mask if appropriate. Consult your Safety
Officer for additional personal protective equipment
recommendations.


Loading Materials and Equipment

• Only load the materials required for the procedure. Do not overload

the hood.

• Do not obstruct the air foil, or rear baffle slots.

• Large objects should not be placed close together and should be

elevated above the work surface to permit airflow to sweep under the
equipment.
