-For 2-rescuer BLS, you will use the bag-mask device.
-A bag-mask device is used to provide positive-pressure ventilation to a victim who is not breathing or not breathing normally. It consists of a bag attached to a face mask. If the bag is self-inflating, a bag-mask device may be used with or without an oxygen supply. If not attached to an oxygen flow, it provides about 21% oxygen from room air. Some bag-mask devices include a 1-way valve. The type of valve may vary from on device to another.

question
2-Rescuer Adult BLS Sequence
answer
Step 1: verify scene safety
Step 2: Check for responsiveness, if unresponsive shout for nearby help. First rescuer remains with victim, second activates emergency response system and retrieves AED and emergency equipment.
Step 3: look for no breathing/gasping and check for pulse (simultaneously). If there is normal breathing and a pulse, monitor until emergency responders arrive. If there is no normal breathing but a pulse, provide rescue breathing.
Step 4: If there is no breathing or only gasping and no pulse, begin CPR (cycles of 30 compressions and 2 breaths). Use AED as soon as available.
Step 5: When AED arrives check the rhythm. Is the rhythm shockable?
