8.1 OVERLAP
You must make sure that there is adequate overlap between the coat and the trousers, including the outer shell, the thermal liner and the moisture barrier, before using the Garments. You will need the assistance of a fellow fire fighter to check these key areas.
8.1 上衣覆蓋
您在使用前必須確定上衣與褲子之間有足夠的覆蓋,包括外罩、隔熱層和防水層。您需要同伴幫您檢查關鍵區域。
A Fire Fighter’s Height Affects Overlap
Fire fighters who are taller than 5’8" (1.73 meters) MUST wear a coat that is 32" (81 cm) or GREATER from the back of the neck at the collar down the back to the bottom of the coat hem. Special care should be given to long-bodied fire fighters of any size to ensure that overlap requirements are met.消防人員的身高影響覆蓋程度
身高達5呎8吋( 1.73公尺 )以上的消防人員必須穿著背長(從領口下方到上衣下擺的長度)32吋( 81公分 )或更大的尺寸。要特別注意上半身較長的人員,要確認上衣有必要的覆蓋。
To check overlap, the following tests should be performed while wearing your complete protective ensemble, but without wearing an SCBA:為確認上衣覆蓋是否足夠,請完整著裝(不需要戴SCBA),然後進行下列測試:
A. NFPA 1500 Standard Position A (Fig. 10A). While standing, reach over head as high as possible with your hands together. The inner liner of the coat must overlap the top of the trousers by no less than 2 inches (5 cm).A. NFPA1500標準姿勢A(圖10A,emma說:請自行看PDF檔原圖)。站立,將雙手同時舉高過頭部,盡力往上舉。上衣內襯層必須蓋過褲頭至少2吋(5公分)。
B. NFPA 1500 Standard Position B (Fig. 10B). While standing with your hands together and reaching overhead as far as possible, bend forward to a 90o angle, to the left or right, and backward. The inner liner of the coat must overlap the top of the trousers by no less than 2 inches (5 cm).B. NFPA 1500 標準姿勢B(圖10B,emma說:請自行看PDF檔原圖)。站立,將雙手舉高交叉過頭部,往左往右及往後彎90 o。上衣的內襯層必需蓋過褲頭至少2吋(5公分)。
C. The lower edges of your trousers must overlap the tops of your boots by 4-6 inches (10-15 cm). Gloves and wristlets must overlap each other by 3 inches (7.5 cm) and leave no gaps where wrists might be exposed.C. 您褲管的下緣必須蓋過您的靴子的頂部至少4-6吋(10-15公分)。手套和袖口必須重疊至少3吋(7.5公分),同時不能有缺口已避免腕部的暴露。
8.2 CHECKING PROPER FIT
All Garments must have adequate looseness in the torso, arms, and legs to ensure that insulated air spaces are maintained. If the Garment bunches at the shoulders or binds in the shoulders, arms, thighs or crotch area, it is probably too small. Garments also should not be too loose, as this could hinder mobility or dexterity and place stress at the wrong places in the Garments. Upon receiving new or replacement Garments, make sure that there is at least a small amount of loose material around the arms and shoulder area. Then test the mobility by climbing stairs and crawling or duck walking.
8.2 檢查適當的鬆緊度
所有的消防衣均和軀幹、手臂以及大腿有適當的寬鬆度以確保有足夠的隔熱空氣的空間。如果消防衣在肩膀處有縐褶或是在肩膀、手臂、大腿或任何分叉處有緊的感覺,那尺寸可能太小了。消防衣組也不能太寬鬆,可能會影響行動力或是靈活度並在消防衣組不適合的地方產生壓力。接到新的或更新的消防衣組,要確認在手臂及肩膀區域有足夠的寬鬆度。之後再利用爬梯和慢步或行走測試行動力。
8.3 CHECKING THE SIZE
Coat. The chest size shown for a coat should NEVER be smaller than the circumference of your own chest, measured under your arms. Coats are designed with an 8-10 inches (20-25 cm) overage for better fit over clothing. For example, a "size 44" coat will be labeled as "size 44" and measure 52-54 inches (132-137 cm) around the chest depending on the coat model. The end of the sleeve should reach beyond your wrist when arms are at rest.=
8.3 檢查尺寸
上衣:上衣所標示的胸圍尺寸,絕對不可以小於您實際的胸圍(量測於手臂下方)。上衣一般設計加寬8-10吋(20 -25公分 ),以利穿著。例如44吋的上衣雖然標示為44吋,實際上為52-54吋(132 -137公分 ),視上衣款式而異。當您的手自然下垂時,袖口應蓋過您的手腕。
Trousers. The waist size shown for a pair of trousers should NEVER be smaller than the circumference of your own waist, measured at your navel. The actual waist dimension of the trousers should be approximately 2-3 inches (5-8 cm) larger than the waist size ordered and labeled on the trousers. Make sure the lower edges of your trousers overlap the tops of your boots by 4-6 inches (10-15 cm)./褲子:褲子所標示的腰圍絕不可小於您的實際腰圍(在您肚臍高度量測)。真正的腰圍會比標示的大約2-3吋(5 -8公分 )。請確認褲腳蓋過您的靴子至少4-6吋(10 -15公分 )。
If the garment does not seem to fit properly, you should check the size in the label to make sure it is your size as measured, and to make sure it is your Garment.word,如果您的消防衣組並不太適穿,您應檢查尺寸標籤以確認您的尺寸是否正確,並確認該防護衣組是否為您所有。
DANGER
危險
Never wear a Garment that fits improperly. If you have a question, or there is a problem with the fit of the Garment, contact your safety officer for assistance. Wearing a Garment that does not fit properly could reduce protection and result in severe burns, cuts, or abrasions, or dangerously restrict your ability to avoid injuries in an emergency situation.絕對不可穿著不適穿的防護衣執勤。如果有任何問題,或合身度有問題,請接洽您的安全部門。穿著不適穿的消防衣組,可能會降低保護效果並導致嚴重的燒傷、割傷或擦傷或嚴重影響您在緊急狀況時之應變作為。
8.4 PROPER FIT OF THE DRAG RESCUE DEVICE (DRD)
Before using your DRD, check to make sure that it is installed properly and that it does not bind or constrict your arms or torso in any way from the ability to have a full range of motion. If you feel tightness in any way, remove your coat, check for twisting of the webbing between the shell and the inner liner, adjust the DRD, and recheck the fit to assure that the problem has been resolved.
8.4 拖拉設備
使用DRD之前,請確認已安裝妥當,並且不管從任何方向都不會拖拉到您的手臂或軀幹。如果您覺得有緊的感覺,脫下上衣,檢查外罩與內襯層之間的織帶,調整DRD,再重新確認鬆緊度,直到一切符合要求。
