RESPIRATOR FROM THE INSIDE!
5. Push the sampling probe through the respirator until the end of
the tool point is visible from the outside of the respirator. Leave a
few millimeters of the tool point visible.

7. Position the anvil tool, with the loaded push nut, over the
protruding point. The respirator should now be pinched between
the two tools.
