You can send support the change on a DF IDA Form 2-069. a memo. b) letter. or w hatever written notice .our sup. port prefers. C_ WORKING THE Like was said, to find the parts for your PLL you check your manuals, TM- 20P's (and any other manual listing organizational repair parts, along with -7, -7-8 supply manuals), and TM 9- 2300-223-20P (Oct 64), "Consolidated Authorized Organizational Stockage List of Repair Parts for Tank-Auto- motive Materiel," (CAOSL for short.)/ 1. Rerenw the allowance note in the intloducion section of your parts manuals--and check lor ony rre-nl hingess (ii a manual doesn't quote allowances, look for a note in that section telling you where to go for your authorized allowances.) 2. On repair ports common lo two or more different typei of equipment, you base your initial allowance on the overall total of equipment you have that will use the port. Also, in figuring up allowances for common parts you make your selection from the parts manual covering the type of equipment having the greatest density. 3. In the case of tank-auto equipment you use the CAOS1 instead of the equipment's individ- ual parts manual if most (the greatest number) of the different kinds of equipment you have are authorized parts in the CAOSL. (THE TM-TYPE PARTS MANUALS~ In some TM-type parts manuals for specific equipment you find the initial 15-day allowances quoted per 100 items. To find your allowance, you multiply the total number of equipment that will use the part, times the figure shown in the allowance column, and then divide by 100. The answer is your 15-day initial allowance for that part. For example, if: Multiply y" y5_5 Multiply 30 by 5.9 I. x 30 S E N ---- 177. Divide by 100 . 1.77 y u 100 [ 177 ge FORMULA NOTES If your answer sits anywhere between 0.5 and 2.4, you're authorized to stock 2. And, if you end up with less than 0.5, forget it... you can't stock it. You'll get the part as you need it for immediate replacement. When the formula gives you on answer consisting of a whole number plus a fractional value of .5 or higher you round the onswel to the next higher whole number. For instance, if you come up with a 2.5 you stock 3. \ \ 3f When your answer gives you fractional values of less than .5, you round the total to the next lower whole number. That is, a 3.2 answer gives you an allowance of 3. is Between Allowance i 0 and .4................................. 0 .5 and 2.4 .................................2 2.5 and 3.4 ............................. ..3 3.5 and 4.4............. ............... 4 etc. HERE'S A HANDY G1UIlE!D REMEMBER, YOUR ANSWER MAUS TOTE UP TO AT LEAST 0.5 BEFORE y OU CAN STOCK AN , fITEM. So, your minimum stockage allowance is 2. This'll leave something in the bin when you issue one, and will help tide you over till your replacement request comes in. AOSL? WITH THE CAOSL CONSOLOIDTEp Setting-up your allowances per TM -'i 4AUTHORIZED OR6AN- 9-2300-223-20P (tank-automotive re- v i IZATIONAL STOC AGE S L IST OF REPAIR pair parts) is fairly simple. This parts PARTS FOR TANI'- manual provides a practical PLL work- SMATERIEL / sheet. 8 CAOSL WORKSHEET Along with each part listed it identifies the specific equipment (by SNL or model identification), the part is authorized for. And, its four allowance columns (headed a, b, c, d) list the number of parts authorized for density totals of equip- ment supported, like this: 1-5, 6-20, 21-50, and 51-100. You simply enter how many of each major item you have in the equipment nomenclature (SNL or model) slot provided (for each part) in column 3; add up your density total; select the allowance column which covers your equipment density and total; circle the allowance you're authorized. I,- ,; Each iem listed alphabetically : -' '" with FSN on left. ! E l____ Z Sour allowance columns. 1~*p ... .... .. ... Enter lotal of major item here. If you have OTHER major items that aren't LISTED in the CAOSL ... but their maintenance requires parts which are listed in the CAOSL you can add the major item's SNL or model info in the CAOSL nomenclature column (column 3) and include the item in your density total when you figure up your allowance. PARTS LOCATOR The CAOSL lists repair parts alpha- betically by Noun Nomenclature. It also lists parts by FSN in numerical sequence in an index in the back of the book. The FSN index also gives you the CAOSL page number where the part is listed. And, if a part applies to only one kind of equipment, you find the SNL listed along with the stock 253o-71-0o53a i ,.. .......... T .AL ...: ..-'" ........ .... ......... ......... ... number in the FSN index. If you gain or lose equipment you simply cross-out the old total in the nomenclature column and its related entry in the allowance column. Then you note the new info in both columns and send the change info to your supply support. "1 mSg MEifa ||g;;o;> KINDS OF PARTS Parts manuals identify repair parts you're authorized like this: Combor Essei i' I t (C! )-Parts shown in parentheses () are CEI's, and once a (El goes on your PLL, you stock it in the exact quantities authorized by the manual ... never less. Any- one can increase stocks of CEI's, of course, if demand info (after six-months use of the part) proves the manual's 15-day allowance isn't enough. But, the quantity authorized by the manual (for whatever total of equipment you support) is the least amount a TOE outfit can carry of that item (para 31e, AR 735-35 and DA TWX 42928 DCSLOG/C 2). ) TO RECAP * Your initial PL isn't an iron-clad contract with your repair part support outfit. Your unit's demand for repair parts is your authority to increase your allowances for any part that's been on your PL for six review periods (180-days). You can even reduce your allowances of other- than-CEI's to zero, and you can also change your range of stocked items by proving your need for "as required" items (See Change 4, para 29c, AR 735-35). You can do all this with your PL. All it takes, like was said at the beginning, is complete, accurate demand records.

It's a simple form, easy to keep and best of all it tells all at a glance... you make a card out for each item on your approved PLL. THE CARD'S TEAMED UP WITH A TITLE INSERT, SPA rORM 1543, ANPD EPT INA VISIBLE I NPE PILE. You record all demand info on the card so it'll give you (and all others con- cerned-like inspectors) complete, up-to-date info on repair parts usage. For convenience, easy handling, etc., the card's teamed up with a title insert, DA Form 1543, and kept in a visible index file which gives you a finger-tip index of your PLL. On this record combination you record parts info as follows: THE TITLE INSERT Equipment it s used an and (El identifcation allowance its inlerchangeability, applicable shown in parenthees).

At the end of each month you draw a line under the last cumulative entry for the month. If you've recorded three separate demands, or more, within the last six monthly :review periods (180-days) you readjust your authorized allowance. All you do is total-up the (last six) separate cumulative totals and divide the amount by 12. 13 MORE OCTOBER . NOVEMBER DECEMBER JANUARY FEBRUARY MARCH CUMULATIVE TOTALS .................. ....

(DA TWX 42928 DCSLOG/C2). REVISING PLL STOCKS DIVIDING LINE * I- In the future, anytime your outfit needs the item you can get it from support as an "as required" item. However, each time you have a call for the item, you record the demand on its card (which you kept in your visible index file when you turned-in the excess parts) and if ever the card shows up with three separate demands within the six current review periods, you can figure up your new authorized allowance for the part and it goes back on your PLL. Again you give support written notice on the change. DUST CATCHERS When your outfit is no longer au- thorized a specific type of equipment and it's turned-in, any repair parts you have (which are used only with that equipment) you turn-in also. In this case you can toss out the cards on the parts and just cross the parts off your PLL. And, of course, you write support a note on the change, so they'll correct their list. 15 )MORE ROD CARD INVENTORY Your record of demand cards are due a periodic inventory-informal, and as called for by the Old Man. Count slips and adjustment reports aren't needed on these informal checks. You can use colored sig- nals behind the title insert windows as a visual check on the status of your parts. For example, one color to show due-in's, another to show zero balance, an- other to flag CEI's, etc. FRINGE (*-PEGGED) ITEMS You set-up a DA Form 2527 for each "as required" item you request. You fill the cards out just like a ROD card for your PLL parts, but you don't make a title insert for 'em, and you file the cards separately (in a file folder, box, cabi- net, etc., just so's they're safe and handy), and you keep 'em in FSN sequence. You review each card each time you make an entry, and anytime you've accumulated three separate demands on a card, the repair part can go on your PLL immediately ... with the Old Man's OK, of course ... and support's knowl- edge. spcdayw ya llwti sxm nhl cren)rvew pros.Yu nl ii i h i ' NO SWEAT/ YOUR.

Not authorized for initial stockage 'k1 - WHEN THE H YOUR Any time you get a hankering to let the bolt on your M60 machine gun fly forward (with the barrel out)-DON'T! You could be asking for a pack of trouble. Why, even with the barrel in there you could have problems. Figure it this way. With the barrel in, you have a forward moving bolt entering the barrel socket like it ought to, right? But, when you're dry firing, you won't have a live round or dummy cartridge in there to soften the blow as steel meets steel. As a result, wear on the bolt locking lugs and the barrel socket locking recesses will be increased. With the barrel out of the receiver, the situation's much worse. Then if the bolt's released and goes forward under force, the actuator cam roller'll hit the rear of the cartridge feed tray. S Tcxo much battering of the bolt stops like this will bang up the recesses or stops This. in turn, will let the actuator cam roller strike the cartridge feed tra% during firing. Ho some t r. if you get in a bind with the barrel removed and the bolt in the forward position, and you can't retract it by the operating handle, here's how .ou can straighten it out without sweat or damage: 1. Hold the machine gun like 2. Press straight down like this. 3.Retract the bolt by using the so *ith the operating rod This'll make the operating cocking handle, like so: on a wooden surface to keep rod turn the bolt to its un "- \ -- ornm damaging it or thi locked poiliion Be sure you forearm press STRAIGHI DOWN You I don I have to slam II, eith . Not that much lore is needed Il'A 1 If this system won't work for you, get your sup- port to lend a hand. Whatever you do, DON'T try to force the bolt Forcing the bolt back /MOT i' agin the receiver guideways can cut a piece off the . bolt lug. So, in future, whenever you have to remove the barrel, do it this way: Retract the bolt till it's seared. Then move the safety to the safe position and raise the barrel lock lever to the vertical position. Then remove the barrel. But don't stop there. Next, put the barrel lock lever in the horizontal position, retract the operat- ing handle fully to the rear. Place the safety in the fire position. Pull the trigger and then E-A-S-E the bolt forward. Doing it this way will lessen your chances of dry firing and prevent damage to your M60. This'll damage or break the reinforcement bar. And the base of the actuator cam roller will strike the bolt stop on top of the receiver. BONG, BONG!... DR. ARMORER! ...IN M60 SURGERY! HO E IT... ,60HONE IT... MAYBE? , So these guys come knocking on your arms room door, i carrying an M60 machine gun that's suffering with a chipped bolt and a burred operating rod yoke. And they want to know can they keep on using this weapon. Well, before you snap an opinion- I best take a good look at the patient. TANT Depends on what surgery's possible. HO For instance, if WHERE S the bolt's only I IT 'rE chipped at the left CHI front corner of the (' upper locking lug, _~ ^ chances are you can cure it by smoothing out the rough sur- faces with a fine sharpening stone. This treatment will work every time-as long as you have at least half of the cam surface of the radius left when you're through honing. Once half of the radius is gone, of course, the bolt's unserviceable. But, if the rear surface of one or both lugs gets chipped, the bolt's auto- matically beyond help. Replace it. AN... ER... GULP.. DOC, I BEFORE YOU OPERATE IF YOU GOT ANY DOUBTS... WH NOT CONSULT SUPPORfT FILL THIS WHOLE NEW DEAL, JOE$SAN. Don't be surprised if you can't get repair parts for your 105-mm towed howitzer's recoil oil gun, , even though it's listed in TM 9- 1015-203-20P (20 Mar 61). Under a new deal, if any of these parts give out, you requisition the whole k! \ item. Uncle's found it's cheaper to 7 , Y replace the gun than to stock its " parts. So, if you need any repair parts listed in the -20P, ask for this instead: Gun, Fluid, FSN i&04933-550-6661. WATCH YOUR BRASS Ow! Ooh! Ouch! My achin' .. !

The brass comes spit- ting out and bounces off the ballisic shield and into anybody or an thing that's in the way. Man and breech mech- i' anism parts can get hurt. DRY DRY- DRY -'~"'" Sure, Joe, you know about keeping grease, oil and moisture off the firing contacts and insulators in your M60 tank's gun cannon breechblock. Could short-circuit the electrical system, right? Well, the same deal goes double for the firing pin. The firing pin MUST be dry-or else! Here're two special times when you want to keep this in mind: When you're reploaing or doing PM on any of the breechblock group ports-take on extra second to see that the firing pin has no oil or grease on it. 1., After a rain or fog or a sudden change from warm to cold weather 4 -take out the firing pin and wipe it dry with a dean rag. Mois- ture, y'know, can sneak in the openings in the retaining plate. IING PIN KEEP ON USING IT WANNA SAVE -, , A GIG ? d ni- re.is,,n .re [Ii capon uncrll, .

HOW MANY you wANr? r. -- CLSEOUT ON CROSS CH "iP S Winter's gone and might as well be forgotten-but don't forget those tire chains that gave you a fighting' chance with ice and snow. They'll be rarin' to go at a moment's notice next winter if you put 'em in good shape before storing 'em away. Busted or worn-thin cross chains are no reason for chuckin' out the whole chain assembly. Too many guys have been takin' the easy-and expensive- way out, so supply's got cross chains in stock clear up to the ears. SYou'll find FSN's for the right size cross chains in TM 9-2300-223-20P (Od 64), pages 263-264. ,l After you've got your chains repaired, give the whole works a good slathenn' of used engine oil and hang 'ern out of the way. Or you con leave ernem sitting' in a can of used oil, like it says in S TM 9-1870-1. Pages 111-117 tell all about in- saollation and rore of tire chains. 6 i And if you don't already have tire chains, now's the time to be thinking- AND DOING-something about that, too, or you'll be sitting' out in the cold in more ways than one come next winter. TM 9-2300-223-20P also gives the FSN's for chain assemblies-and tells who gets 'em and how (see pages 260- 263). M35A1 DIPSTICK... ROUNDIN' THE CORNERS When you're slippin' the dipstick to your M35A1 2V2-ton truck, be mighty careful or you'll chew up the threaded top of the dipstick tube. The sharp corners where the double layer of the stick ends can play hob with the threads so the cap won't screw on. Better yet, get rid of those sharp corners by rounding 'em off with a file or grinder. Do it careful-like, tho, so you don't cut into the part of the dip- stick that goes on down into the crank- case. CORNERS I ROUND WRECK 'EM THREADS O FF START BY BLEEDING The secret's in the bleeding when your M35A1 2/2-ton truck runs out of fuel and-doesn't want to start with a new load in the KiJ tank. The fuel lines have to be bled BEFORE starting is attempted. It's a simple job with a crescent wrench, but it's strictly for organizational mechanics-not drivers. If you try starting without the bleeding, chances are you'll just run the bat- tery down. *i ,i7 t v , If you have an M37, an M37Bl-or any other member of /K =NO T the G741 3-ton truck family-you'll want to know that the COPECT GAP ON HIS PLUG. correct spark plug gap is 0.028 to 0.033 inch like it says on page 181 of TM 9-8030. If there's any question on this, check with your Support. They've been given the latest word from i the national maintenance point. - If any of your tactical wheeled vehicles have the older type ignition switch -the one with a resin potting material around the wire leads-you've gotta keep an eye on 'em. TB Ord 634 (Oct 61), says to inspect the old switch (FSN 5930-776-0409) at every periodic maintenance ("S") service for cracks and scorched insulation. When the potting metal cracks, moisture seeps thru and shorts the unit- makes for a fire hazard. Replace all cracked switches with a new Switch, Rotary, Ignition, FSN 5930- 699-9438. This is the ignition switch that's listed in your copy of TM 9-2300- 223-20P. To put this metal encased switch in your truck for the first time, you'll need Kit, FSN 2920-796-2655 to make the installation. The TB gives the hook-up NEW HORN NOTE Do any of your 4-ton G758 or 21-ton G742-series trucks need a new horn? If so, requisition Horn, Electrical, FSN 2590-678-6140. This horn super- sedes the one given in both vehicles' -20P' s. When you mount this new horn on G742 vehicles after serial numbers 121098 and M31098 that have the old type horn, you'll need additional elec- trical connectors. You can get 'em in a kit under FSN 2590-766-7722. ON PRESSURIZED FUEL SYSTEMS... You'll have a mean ole' tiger lyin' in wait for you if you don't keep tabs on the filler cap of your vehicle's pressurized fuel system. That ornery cat's apt to come tearin' out of the filler pipe right into your face. Or, if he can't wait for you to let 'im out, he may reach down into the engine and raise hob. This terror of the fuel tank is pressure-too much pressure, that is. He can drench you with fuel (bad stuff in the wrong place) when you take the filler cap off. He's a double threat when he shoves gas right through the engine into the crankcase, diluting the oil and making a perfect set-up for an explosion. To keep that temp'r'mental tabby dozin' peacefully in the tank: CHECK THE CAP There're three different filler caps: 41MORE DON'T CROWD HIM Another way to keep from annoying that cat-under-the-cap is to leave room for some expansion and pressure build- up when you're filling your tank. A good reminder is a line painted across two inches from the top of the tank, with this warning-' CAUTION: DO NOT FILL ABOVE THIS LINE." Leave a couple inches for expansion. This is for fuel tanks that are in full view. If your gas tank can't be seen, stencil near the fill pipe-"CAUTION: DO NOT OVERFILL-ALLOW FOR EXPANSION." TB 746-93-1 (26 Oct 64), Color and Marking of Military Vehicles, Construction Equipment and Materials Handling Equipment, has the full scoop on this.These warnings are re- quired no matter which of the three gas caps you have.

SP5 J. C Dear Specialist J. C. N., Maybe you're better than most guys in running that steam outfit, but the truth is, there's an awful lot of damage done by men who don't know how to operate the steam cleaner right. The guys in direct support do a lot of cleaning with steam and know what to watch out for. Since the various truck TM's don't say you can do steam cleaning, the best and safest bet is to stick with the tools your outfit has. As you know, only support units have steam cleaners authorized. TM 9-8024 says to: USE DRY CLEANING SOLVENT VLATLE S O VOLATILE MINERAL MINERAL SPIRITS TO CLEAN OR / C IAN SPIRITS SWASH GREAS OR OIL / LVEN PROM ALL PARTS OF 0E If you're interested in your own safety (speaking of that green stuff in your billfold), you're not going to have the TM to back you up on steam cleaning when your CO hands you a statement of charges for damage to equipment- and, believe me, it has happened. TOW CHAIN Dear Half-Mast, What became of the tow chain that used to be a part of the OEM for G742- series 2' 2-ton trucks with winches? The winch-equipped trucks have blocks. But a block's not much use without the chain. And the chain's not listed with other OEM in Change 5 to TM 9-8022. Sgt. R. B. W. F I r Dear Sg. R. B. ..

If you crew members on an M60-series or M48A3 tank fluff off on that "after operation" check of the air cleaner blower motors you're asking for big troubles. A dead blower motor causes clogged up air filters, which means loss in power and lets dust into your engine. When dust gets into the cylinders, it acts like sandpaper and grinds away at the rings, pistons and walls shorter engine life. Regardless of which blower motor you have-earlier model (FSN 6105- 801-8716) or later ones (FSN 6105- 873-5379) the check gets made. Find a "dead" motor? OK, let your sergeant know so he can get a me- chanic to look at it. Your mechanic can make a check for loose connections. If it's not in the con- nections, then he'll hafta replace the dead motor with a good one. FILTER POOP Your dry-type filters (made of dacron felt) will do a good filtering job for 1500 miles under normal operation. After this the mechanic should inspect 'em and clean 'em up like's called out in the -20 TM's. - .i; The crew checks 'em every 750 miles S. you pull out the filters and check them for damage and see to it the gas- ket's in good shape. Your -10 TM's have all the poop. O'course, you check more often when you operate in dusty areas. INTAKE SCREENS They've got to be kept clean. Re- cently, an outfit with M60's let a screen in the engine area clog up. Natch, with the intake screen clog- ged, the engine had to get air some- where else. Like a big bully, it picked on the blower motor. The blower motor which normally exhausts the air parti- cles overboard was forced to reverse and suck the air inward. You can guess the rest. Soon the filters were filled up and likewise the engine-with dust. A snafued engine. S-o-o-o-o, the few seconds you take to check out the motors or screens is like putting money in the bank. It helps to make sure your tank will go when you get the word. K IS IN YOUR HANDS ! f g REPLACING THE BLOWER MOTOR S Like we said in PS 134, there's a new improved blower motor in supply i- for the M60, M60A1, and M48A3 tanks. Ask for it as FSN 6105-873-5379. Here's how you identify the new and old blower motors: NOTE: RECESSED GROOVE FOR PREFORMED PACKING <, AIR CLEANER BLOWER MOTOR. "NEW TYPE" PART NO. 10905006 FSN 6105-873-5379 NOTE: NO RECESSED GROOVE FOR PREFORMED PACKING AIR CLEANER BLOWER MOTOR. "OLD TYPE" PART NO. 8395503 FSN 6105-801 8716 L Fir-l. when you order the motor, that's just what you get the motor alone without the cover or the fan housing. So hang on to these non- supply parts when you disassemble the motor, because you're not going to get new ones when supply gives you a new motor. Second, dust and dirt can get into the motor housing unless the two pre- formed packing are installed. Requi- sition 'em as FSN 5330-585-7864 and FSN 5330-805-8165 when you order the motor for your M60 series tanks. They're listed on page 55 of TM 9- 2350-215-20P (Nov 62). Install 'em when you put in the motor and you won't have to worry about gook in the housing. IThirl. if you have an M48A3 tank, you need the same two preformed pack- ings. So order 'em by the same FSN's like above. That way you won't get the wrong ones. F.'ourth, if you have the impulse to save, put some money in the bank or buy some bonds but don't try to save the blower motor cover or the fan hous- ing when you have to evacuate your tank to support for repair. If you do, they'll deadline your tank until you turn in the missing parts. REMEMBER FOUR LITTLE THINGS ~:;: : I--i g~' Dear Half-Mas:, W Our M21 2 2 2-fon cargo trucks w/winch had their winches yanked, leaving the front bumper bare. Is there a plate that'll cover this gap and how can we get it? Dear Sergeant R. D. K., There sure is. What you need is Shield, splash, front bumper, center. The shield is a support item and it's listed in Ord 8 SNL G749 (Apr 57). It's identified with manufacturer's number 2289169. Although the SNL doesn't list the FSN, your support can get it with FSN 2540-567-3251. You install the shield like it says in paragraph 285 of TM 9-8024. 7;L,.'

NO 48 Well, it's'causethere's less angular action at the transmission-transfer end than at the axle end, making for less wear on the slip joint. Then, should the shaft ever pull apart at the joint, it'd be the short- end that'd whip 'round-less dam- age done. USE YOUR OWN TIMES Dear Sergeant D. D. C., Your own past experience is the best judge on how long it takes to pull a periodic inspection, Sarge. There is no published manhour guide right now on average periodic inspection times for any aircraft. Besides, there are too many differences that have to be taken into account from aircraft to aircraft . and from inspection to inspection. So your only way to find a guide is to make your own ... by keeping manhour records on the most recent periodic for each ship. / HOT WEATHER OTTER FIX ...

Reducing flight fatigue automatically increases the flight safety factor.) B, "c~;' r~ 3 EXIT THE EXCESS There's no such thing as an irresistible force meeting an immovable object -something has to give! Take the lag dampers on the rotor hub of your Shawnee (CH-21). Suppose you fill the old-style dampers, FSN 1560-092-3382(P/N 22R2013-2) or FSN 1650-313-5767 (P/N 5517188), to the brim. These are the types that don't have a sight gage to fill by, or a relief valve to vent excess fluid. During operation the fluid heats up and expands. Then that irresistible force (hydraulic pressure) partially separates the damper body from. the reservoir cover 'tain't a healthy situation. That's why you want to follow the poop in TM 55-1520-205-20, Chapter II, Section I, Paragraph 1-97 when you fill those oldies. The action to focus on is just after the hydraulic fluid overflows the filler opening. FLUID EXPANSION CAUSES SEPARATION HERE To get rid of the excess fluid you simply rotate the damper until it rests on the -- face of the mounting lug DAMPER opposite the open filler RESERVOIR BODY hole. Then you put the (OVER filler plug back, torque it to 10-15 inch-pounds and make with the lock wire. EIR THE MESSAGE S Dear Windy, One of our birds came to rest in a not-so-normal posi- tion so we fired off a message to AVCOM according to the accident reporting rules spelled out in AR 385-40 (23 Sep 63). Included in the message was info about suspected ma- teriel failure, as required in paragraph 23d(9) of AR 385-40. Does this mean that we do not have to follow-up with an EIR? -_ Lt R. O. W. Dear Lieutenant R. O. W., Negative! The engineer-types at the head hangar are looking for a follow-up EIR. Small wonder, when Para- graph 12f of AR 750-5 (3 Aug 64) on maintenance policies S says to make with a DA Form 2407 (Part III) when bird equipment fails.

One good way to insure a peep from your Pipsy is to be extra careful with the VOLTAGE ADJ switch. That's "1" to remember. Although there's a big, fat decal on the control panel of the AN/PPS-4 radar set warning not to connect the battery unless the VOLTAGE ADJ switch is in Pos. 1, some Joes do it. Naturally, pffftt!! goes the set and you cart it off to the shop. Maybe they're bleary from the one they tied on the night before, or maybe dream dust from last weekend's babe is still in their eyes. But, maybe again they're gonna need that set real bad .and they won't have it because of a couple' blown power converter transistors. Maybe it would been better if they'd forced their eyeballs open and con- centrated on the job at hand. SNO MAT E. STANDBY- ,TRANSMIT WHAT ELS-E 1 9 ON 1 MIND ORANGE 71) Be sure the Pow 4 5 POWER switch is off o and the VOLTAGE 2- 6 ADJ is at Pos. 1 I ) before you connect VOLTAGE the battery. AD. A fully charged battery jolts your set when you hook it up with the VOLT- AGE ADJ feeding more juice than the set can handle. S One forgetful minute can send you packing: The "1" spot on the Pipsy's panel can keep you cracking. CG FOR AN RT fOU'C NEEEMKNOJ 1. sT THE 9UILT DIFFERENT. Not only that, but they act different ... even though they look as much alike on the outside as identical twins. You're with it. They're the antenna cables (RF cable assemblies) used in the AN/GRC-3 thru -8 series radio sets. You've got two-the CG-530/U and the CG-568/U. Because they fit each other's couplings, some Joes have been known to switch 'em around. This doesn't work so hot, since the CG-5681U is just not built to do the job of the CG-530/U. So why? Well, the single wire con- struction of the CG-568 makes it little more than an extension of the antenna -a real simple gadget built to do a simple job. The CG-530 features braid- ed RG-62/U cable. It's more compli- cated; built to put out on, and pull in, the higher frequencies. Which clues you that the CG-568 is for low frequencies only, like those in the RT-66 receiver-transmitter. And, naturally, you use the CG-568 only on the RT-66. So wot's with the CG-530? Is easy. The CG-530 is always used on the RT-70. And, since the RT-67 and RT-68 have the higher frequencies, it's always used with those two receiver- transmitters. Which means, too, that you never use the CG-568 with those three RT's. Telling the cables apart is no sweat.r--, Before you attach 'em to the RT, grab a look at the nomenclature band which is clamped on the cable. The "CG- 530/U" or "CG-568/U" is stamped in the band. .BAN.S . !' CG-530/u If the nomenclature's missing, your support can let you know what you have by backing off the nut of the con- nector jack. .. ori,-.( ABOUT Next time you're putting' together the Like, just because it's an antenna MP-65( ) mast base for your AN/ base, don't assume a grounding ring GRC-19, AN/GRC-46 or whatever, automatically comes with it. don't be a groundhog about grounding Some Joes, used to living with the rings. AB-15 and its grounding ring, go so MP-65 GETS far as to scrounge the ring off an AB-15 NO GROUND and put it on the MP-65. RING SWell-intentioned as that may be, they're not doing anybody any favors. The MP-65 doesn't get the ring. Give it one and ground it, and the antenna won't load. What's more, a couple' parts in the AB-15 HAS equipment may do a slow burn just GROUND RING long enough to burn out. SOLDERING GUN SWITCH M. To tET A REPLACEMENT FOR. THAT TIRED TL-650/U, USE , FPSN 3439-729-6770. A fizzled fusing gun got you frothing at the mouth? Lay off the rabies shots. Help is on the way. SB 11-593 (14 Oct 64) is your authority to turn in that beat TL-650/U solder- ing gun and ask for a new soldering gun by using FSN 3439-729-6770. This SB applies to all field users of the TL-650/U soldering gun, providing the gun is defective. Nosireee, and no indeedy! Don't flip that AM-65 selector switch!!! I II d 101 1( 1 C I- tIoL-r tp [ i ifie . That ol' message is stenciled right over your AM-65 switch. Unfortu- nately for the amplifier, familiarity can blind a guy to a message like that. Even though it's under your nose, you don't see it... and you forget it. That kinda' forgetfulness leads to all kinds of interesting damage to the amplifier parts. That's why the re- minder. Do like the stencil says: "DON'T SWITCH TO RT-70 WITHOUT RT- 70 CONNECTED." It'll pay to remember. 'Nother power point on the ampli- fier: Turn the juice off before you re- place any tubes. When you locate a bad tube, turn the power off and then take it out. With the juice on, you can burn out the tubes that remain in the AM-65. When it comes to switching on your AM-65 amplifier, you can stay one jump ahead by pausing one jump behind. In other words, when operating the OFF-INT-RT-70 switch, slow down for a couple-three seconds at INT before jumping over to the RT-70 position. When you go from OFF to RT-70 in one quick switch, a sudden shot of voltage is applied to the filaments of the tubes in your RT-70. And this can burn 'em out in short order. PUT THE SCREWS TO IT... GENTLE-LIKE Next time you're about to put the screws- to the front panel of your AN/URM-105 .. multimeter, remember this: AND DolrN " PUT TOO MUCH Be sure the washers us ,5 M UCLE Soie on Ih ew\ ,' TO THE' ale on Ihe strews t (a, If 3ou forge hr th ashers, or o\eriighctn the mounting scr .%, ), u stand a good chance of breaking the edges of the panel at the mounting holes. Since you can't get another front panel, you either cannibalize one or rig up some over-sized washers that may be able to hold down what's left of the edges. To avoid those kinda problems, make sure the original washer's on, and just snug up the screw finger-tight. You don't have to exercise your arm muscles.

In the shop, you find your Davey with its innards pretty badly torn up. Second stage rotor's busted rotary vanes're cracked, broken ... a hunk of vane's jammed between the rotor and stator. Could be caused by several things engaging the clutch running metal particles in the air compression chamber . eating oil. M-210-RP THE CURE Here's the best way to keep sour Dave\% health . Give it the cure: GX Engage the clutch permanently. This will prevent accidental movement of the clutch when the engine's running. It's a minor operation and won't affect the performance of the M-210-RP in any way. Fact is, all you're doing is coupling the compressor directly to the engine. 'Course, there'll be some new starting info for you to follow, but other- wise your set will operate the same ... or better than ever. Do it like this: 1. Engage the clutch. 2. Now, unscrew the hex head 3. Slip the lever off .mark mounting screw. it and stow it away. I NEW INSTRUCTION PLATES Once you've removed the lever, you'll need some new operating instruction plates. You can come by them by contacting the HERE'S U. S. Army Mobility Equipment Center you Post Office Drawer 58 CAN Attention: SMOME-MML-C / N.E St. Louis, Missouri 63166 Be sure to include the serial number of each of the rigs for which you need plates. Meantime, here's the word. 61 Il MORE) OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Follow the Before Starting info in TM 5-4310-229-10. Then: STARTING 1. Turn the fuel tank shutloff valve counter- dodrwise to the "OPEN" position. "III A CLEAN FILTER Remove the cover basket and filter element. 4. Push reset button on engine oil pressure 2. Pull out the choke control, being careful /1 o not to overchoke. 5. Open one service valve. 3. Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position. 6. Push ster utt WKi l th d 1s wIllii* unr~~~a~a W f 'w^^^S 1. Turn the ignition switch to the "OFF" position. 2. Close the fuel shutoff valve by turning it dokwise. GO WITH THE LO Another item in the "stay healthy" prescription for your Davey is: Follow LO 5-4310-229-15 all the way. This means that the only lubri- cating oil you'll use in the com- pressor oil chamber is 2190 T (FSN 9150-235-9061) or 2110T-H (FSN 9150-985-7234). Nothing else will do. WHEN THERE'S A HEAT-WAVE HULA... CALL FOR GH Ilk - GH is the Grease, aircraft, high temperature, Mil-G-3545, that's specified for the ignition cutout switch and clutch points on your IHC TD-24 tractors, f'rin- stance, or the magneto cutout switch on your Unit Rig 4262 intrenching machine. You can read about the use of it IGN in LO's-such as LO 5-2410-205-20-1 (UT-OUT (8 Jan 60) or LO 5-3805-212-20-2 (13 .1- SWITCH Nov 61). The main thing to remember ... USE is that GH is effective where GAA GH won't do. It's good for temperatures .-.- up to 300F, where GAA's effective ".-.,. only up to about 1750F. ,' But if you figure it's hot enough to ( use this much, maybe you'd better head for the shade till the heat-wave hula's over. You'll find these FSN's listed in Fed- eral Supply Catalogs C9100-ML and C9100-IL, both dated 1 Dec 64, and their changes. GENERATORS, COMPRESSORS Grab a copy of Change 1 (5 Oct 64) to DA Cir 725-5, "Removal of Compo- nents from Assemblages and Sets of Equipment." It's got some important poop on recording separate components in your property book. These are the components, such as compressors, generators, and such, that used to be issued with sets, kits and the like. They are now issued as separate items. Change 1 to the circular also tells you how to report the separate compo- nents on your AR 711-5 report. UPSNUFFED DATEWISE? If you need to up-date your periodic maintenance services, you need DA Cir 750-6 (16 Dec 64) to get the latest list of TM changes covering services for your equipment. This circular supersedes DA Cir 750-3 mentioned in PS 148. KEEP OUT THE FOGGY DEW Is your equipment log book getting damp from the foggy dew? Then try this for protection: Envelope, transparent, visible thru both sides, side opening, 17-in Ig, 11-in w, FSN 7510-272-3172, price 174 each. It's listed on page 4.6 of C7510-IL-A (1 Dec 64). Would You Stake the Condition of BATTERIES BITE, TOO Like the flesh-eating piranha fish, any unleashed and unwanted battery juice'll chew and devour your battery-operated electronics equipment during storage or lay over for repairs. So, remember, take that bitin' battery out of your idle equipment. MEET MEC IN ST. LOOOEE Here's an address change for Ap- pendix II of your TM 38-750. The Mo- bility Support Center listed there for Engineer and QM-type equipment is now in St. Louis and is called the USA Mobility Equipment Center. Make the address: Commanding General, US Army Mobility Equipment Center, ATTN: SMOME-MML, P.O. Drawer 58, St. Louis, Missouri, 63166. MASK SPECS When you swap your M9A1 protec- tive mask for an M17 protective mask don't try to force your old prescription glasses on the new mask. They won't fit the new mask, and you could harm it. Specs for the M17 are specially designed to fit the contour of the mask's eyepiece. AR 40-3 (26 Mar 62) "Medical, Dental and Veterinary Care," covers the scoop on special specs.
