TM 9-2320-272-24-1 WARNING SUMMARY Hearing protection is required for the driver and passenger. Hearing protection is also required for all personnel working in and around this vehicle while the engine is running (AR-40-5 and TB MED 501). If required to remain inside vehicle during extreme heat, occupants should follow the water intake, work/rest cycle, and other stress preventive measures (FM 21-10, Field Hygiene and Sanitation). If NBC exposure is suspected, all air filter media should be handled by personnel wearing protective equipment. Consult with your unit NBC officer or NBC NC0 for appropriate handling or disposal instructions. This vehicle has been designed to operate safely and efficiently within the limits specified in this TM. Operation beyond these limits is prohibited by IAW AR 70-l without written approval from the commander, U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command, ATTN: AMCPEO-CM-S, Warren, MI 48397-5000. Never work under dump body unless safety braces are properly positioned. Failure to do this will result in injury to personnel. During winching operation, never stand between vehicles. Assistant must remain in secondary vehicle to engage service brake if cable snaps or automatic brake fails while towing vehicle. Failure to do this may result in injury to personnel. Accidental or intentional introduction of liquid contaminants into the environment is in violation of state, federal, and military regulations. Refer to Army POL (para. l-7) for information concerning storage, use, and disposal of these liquids. Failure to do so may result in injury or death. Cleaning solvents are flammable and toxic. Do not use near open flame and always have a fire extinguisher nearby when solvents are used. Use only in well-ventilated places, wear protective clothing, and dispose of cleaning rags in approved container. Failure to do this will result in injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment. Eyeshields must be worn when cleaning with compressed air. Compressed air source will not exceed 30 psi (207 kPa). Failure to do so may result in injury to personnel. Extreme care should be taken when removing surge tank filler cap if temperature gauge reads above 175°F (79°C). Steam or hot coolant under pressure will cause injury. Alcohol used in the alcohol evaporator is flammable, poisonous, and explosive. Do not smoke when removing alcohol evaporator or adding fluid, and do not drink fluid. Failure to do this will result in injury or death. Do not perform electrical circuit testing fuel tank with fill cap or sending unit removed. Fuel may ignite, causing injury to personnel. When performing battery maintenance, ensure batteries are seated and clamped down, all rubber boots are installed, clamps are well down on battery posts, and all battery cables lie flat against the top of the batteries. Failure to do this may result in injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment. Ensure companion seatbelts are not caught inside battery box. This will cause belts to rot which may lead to iujury of personnel. On M938/Al/A2 model vehicles, remove spare tire prior to changing tire and install tire in spare tire carrier after tire change is complete. Operation of crane and/or vehicle engine while vehicle is on jacks may result in injury to personnel or damage to equipment. Never assemble or disassemble tire and rim assembly while inflated, use inflation to seat lockring on split rim or tire on two-piece rim, or inflate a tire without a tire inflation cage. Injury to personnel may result. Do not disconnect air lines or hoses, remove safety valves or CTIS components, or perform brake chamber repairs before draining air reservoirs. Small parts under pressure may shoot out with high velocity, causing injury to personnel. Warning b
TM 9-2320-272-24-1 WARNlNG SUMMARY (Contd) Remove all jewelry when working on electrical circuits. Jewelry coming in contact with electrical circuits may produce a short circuit, causing extreme heat, explosions, and fling particles of metal. Failure to do so will result in injury or death and damage to equipment. Use eyeshields and follow instructions carefully when performing assembling, disassembling, or maintenance on this device. Components of this device are under spring tension and may shoot out at a high velocity. Failure to do so will result in injury to personnel. Do not remove hoses with engine running or start engine with hoses removed. High-pressure fluids may cause hoses to whip violently and spray randomly. Failure to do so may result in injury to personnel. Keep hands out from between metal surfaces when removing heavy components. Failure to do so may result in injury to personnel. Keep personnel out from under equipment and components of equipment when supported by only a lifting device. Sudden loss of lifting power or shift in load may result in injury or death. Do not drain engine, transmission, or radiator fluids, or remove lines containing these fluids, when hot. Doing so may result in injury to personnel. Vehicle will become charged with electricity if it contacts or breaks high-voltage wires. Do not leave vehicle while high-voltage lines are in contact with vehicle. Failure to do so may result in injury to personnel. Wear hand protection when handling lifting and winching cables, hot exhaust components, and parts with sharp edges. Failure to do so may result in injury to personnel. Do not perform fuel system procedures while smoking or within 50 ft (15.2 m) of sparks or open flame. Diesel fuel is highly flammable and can explode easily, causing injury or death to personnel and/or damage to equipment. Ensure drainvalve on aftercooler is open when filling cooling system. Failure to do so may result in injury to personnel. Turbocharger intake fins are extremely sharp and turn at very high rpm. Keep hands and loose items away from intake openings. Failure to do so may result in injury to personnel. Do not place hands between frame and radiator when removing screws from trunnion or lifting radiator. Sudden changes in support may cause the radiator to shift, causing injury to personnel. Air pressure may create airborne debris. Use eye protection or injury to personnel may result. Air system components are subject to high pressure. Always relieve pressure before loosening or removing air system components. Wear safety goggles when using a hammer. Ether is extremely flammable.
