c TM 5-2410-241-10 FOR INFORMATION ON FIRST AID, REFER TO FM 4-25.11. GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS DESCRIPTION 0000 WARNING COMPRESSED AIR 0000 Compressed air for cleaning or drying purposes, or for clearing restrictions, should never exceed 30 psi (207 kPa). Wear protective clothing (goggles/shield, gloves, etc.) and use caution to avoid injury to personnel. WARNING HEARING PROTECTION 0000 Hearing protection is required when standing within 26 ft (8 m) of the machine while it is operating. Failure to wear hearing protection may result in hearing loss. WARNING HOT COMPONENTS 0000 Components with metal parts can cause severe burns at operating temperature. Allow components to cool before performing maintenance on them. Wear insulated gloves, long sleeves, and eye protection when working with heated parts.

d TM 5-2410-241-10 MACHINE OPERATION 0000 Use of seat belt while operating machine is mandatory. Failure to follow this warning may result in injury or death to personnel in the event of an accident or machine overturn. PRESSURIZED COOLING SYSTEM 0000 • DO NOT service cooling system unless engine has cooled. This is a pressurized cooling system, and escaping steam or hot coolant will cause serious burns. • DO NOT remove cooling system radiator cap when engine is hot. Allow engine to cool down. Loosen cap to first stop and let any pressure out of cooling system, then remove cap. Failure to follow this warning may cause serious burns. • Wear effective eye, hand, and skin protection when handling coolants. Failure to follow this warning may cause injury to personnel. WARNING SLAVE STARTING ENGINE 0000 When slave starting the engine: – Use NATO slave cable that does NOT have loose or missing insulation. – DO NOT proceed if suitable cable is not available. – DO NOT use civilian-type jumper cables. – DO NOT allow disabled machine and booster vehicle to come in contact with each other at any time during slave starting. Failure to follow these warnings may result in injury or death to personnel. GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS DESCRIPTION — CONTINUED 0000 WARNING

e TM 5-2410-241-10 0000 • DO NOT operate arctic heater when machine is running. • DO NOT operate arctic heater in confined spaces due to exhaust gases. • Avoid exposure to hot exhaust gases. • Failure to follow these warnings may result in injury or death to personnel. WARNING DO NOT operate winch without safety screen installed protecting rear cab window. Failure to follow this warning may result in injury or death to personnel or damage to equipment.

f TM 5-2410-241-10 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS WARNINGS DESCRIPTION 0000 WARNING BATTERIES 0000 • To avoid injury, eye protection and acid-resistant gloves must be worn when working around batteries. DO NOT smoke, use open flame, make sparks, or create other ignition sources around batteries. If a battery is giving off gases, it can explode and cause injury to personnel. Remove all jewelry such as rings, ID tags, watches, and bracelets. If jewelry or a tool contacts a battery terminal, a direct short will result in instant heating or electric shock, damage to equipment, and injury to personnel. • Sulfuric acid contained in batteries can cause serious burns. If battery corrosion or electrolyte makes contact with skin, eyes, or clothing, take immediate action to stop the corrosive burning effects. Failure to follow these procedures may result in death or injury to personnel. – EYES. Flush with cold water for no less than 15 minutes and seek medical attention immediately. – SKIN. Flush with large amounts of cold water until all acid is removed. Seek medical attention as required. – INTERNAL. If corrosion or electrolyte is ingested, drink large amounts of water or milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or vegetable oil. Seek medical attention immediately. – CLOTHING/EQUIPMENT. Wash area with large amounts of cold water. Neutralize acid with baking soda or household ammonia. • CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead components. These chemicals are known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

g TM 5-2410-241-10 CARBON MONOXIDE (EXHAUST GASES) CAN KILL!!!! 0000 • Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, deadly poison which, when breathed, deprives the body of oxygen and causes suffocation. Exposure to air containing carbon monoxide produces symptoms of headache, dizziness, loss of muscular control, apparent drowsiness, and coma. Permanent brain damage or death can result from severe exposure. • Carbon monoxide occurs in the exhaust fumes of internal combustion engines. Carbon monoxide can become dangerously concentrated under conditions of inadequate ventilation. The following precautions must be observed to ensure safety of personnel when the engine is operated. – DO NOT operate engine in enclosed areas. – DO NOT idle engine without adequate ventilation. – BE ALERT for exhaust poisoning symptoms. They are: • Headache • Dizziness • Sleepiness • Loss of muscular control – If you see another person with exhaust poisoning symptoms: • Remove person from area. • Expose to fresh air. • Keep person warm. • DO NOT permit physical exercise. • Administer Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) if necessary. • Notify a medic. – BE AWARE. The field protective mask for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) protection will not protect you from carbon monoxide poisoning. • CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Engine exhaust and some of its constituents are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm. The Best Defense Against Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Is Good Ventilation! HAZARDOUS MATERIALS WARNINGS DESCRIPTION — CONTINUED 0000 WARNING

h TM 5-2410-241-10 CARC PAINT 0000 • Take the following precautions before grinding, cutting, or welding any equipment that has been CARC-coated: – Wear protective equipment (e.g., goggles, gloves, apron) when grinding or sanding CARC-coated equipment. Do not leave any skin exposed. – Use high-efficiency air purifying respirators when grinding or sanding CARC- coated equipment. – Never weld or cut CARC-coated equipment; grind or sand off CARC paint completely before welding. – CARC paint contains isocyanate (HDI) which is highly irritating to the skin and respiratory system. High concentrations of HDI can produce itching and reddening of the skin, a burning sensation in the throat and nose, and watering of the eyes. In extreme concentrations, HDI can cause coughing, shortness of breath, pain during respiration, increased sputum production, and chest tightness. • Failure to follow these warnings may result in injury or death to personnel. WARNING HAZARDOUS WASTE DISPOSAL 0000 • When servicing this equipment, performing maintenance, or disposing of materials such as engine/ hydraulic oils, coolant, and fuel, consult your unit/local hazardous waste disposal center or safety office for local regulatory guidance. • Engine/hydraulic oils, coolant, and fuel can be very slippery. Immediately wipe up any spills. • Failure to follow these warnings may result in injury to personnel. WARNING HYDRAULIC SYSTEM PRESSURE 0000 • DO NOT disconnect or remove any hydraulic system line or fitting unless the engine is shut down and hydraulic system pressure has been relieved. Tighten all connections before applying pressure. Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin, causing injury or death to personnel. • Use a piece of cardboard, newspaper, or wood to check for pressurized leaks to prevent fluid from penetrating the skin. Failure to do so may cause injury or death to personnel. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS WARNINGS DESCRIPTION — CONTINUED 0000 WARNING
