Exposure to air contaminated with carbon monoxide produces symptoms of headache, dizziness, loss of muscular control, apparent drowsiness, or coma. Permanent brain damage or death can result from severe exposure. Carbon monoxide occurs in the exhaust fumes of fuel-burning internal combustion engines and can become dangerous under conditions of inadequate ventilation. The following precautions must be observed to insure the safety of personnel: A. DO NOT operate the engine of a vehicle in an enclosed area unless it is ADEQUATELY VENTILATED. B. DO NOT idle the engine for long periods without maintaining ADEQUATE VENTILATION in the personnel compartments. C. DO NOT drive any vehicle with inspection plates, cover plates, or engine compartment doors removed unless it is necessary for maintenance purposes. D. BE ALERT at all times during vehicle operation for exhaust odors, and exposure symptoms. If either are present, IMMEDIATELY VENTILATE the personnel compartments. If symp- toms persist, remove affected personnel from the vehicle and treat as follows: (1) Exposure to fresh air. (2) Keep warm. (3) DO NOT PERMIT EXERCISE. (4) If necessary, administer artificial respiration (see FM 21-11). THE BEST DEFENSE AGAINST CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING IS ADEQUATE VENTILATION. COMPRESSED AIR Compressed air used for cleaning purposes will not exceed 30 psi. Use only with effective chip guarding and personal protective equipment (goggles/shield, gloves, etc.). WINCH HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR (M916 AND M920) Do not remove fill cap when hydraulic fluid is hot. The hydraulic tank is pressurized to 5 psi. Remove the fill cap slowly. c TM 9-2320-273-20 COOLING FAN When working in the engine compartment with the engine running, stay clear of the cooling fan. The fan may engage automatically at any time and could cause serious injury. PUSHER AXLE (M917, M919, AND M920) When the pusher axle is in the up position it freewheels. DO NOT USE THE PUSHER AXLE AS A STEP. You can fall and be injured. Always lower the pusher axle when the vehicle is parked. FILLING THE RADIATOR Let the radiator cool before removing cap. Remove radiator cap in two steps. First, place a thick cloth over the cap and slowIy rotate cap left to its first stop; pause, and let pressure escape from cooling system. Then rotate cap farther left until you can remove it. Failure to follow this procedure can re- sult in serious burns. LIFTING THE TRUCK Improper use of lifting equipment and attachment of cables to the truck can result in serious person- nel injury and equipment damage. OBSERVE ALL STANDARD RULES OF SAFETY. HOOD SAFETY LATCH After raising hood, insert the S-shaped safety hook through two matching holes in the prop channels to prevent the hood from falling accidentally. EXHAUST PIPE AND MUFFLER During normal operation the exhaust pipe and muffler can become very hot. Be careful not to touch these components with your bare hands. Do not allow your body to come in contact with the pipe or muffler. Exhaust system components may be hot enough to cause serious burns. d Change 2 TM 9-2320-273-20 C5 Change HEADQUARTERS, DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY No. 5 WASHINGTON, DC, 30 December 2005 TECHNCIAL MANUAL ORGANIZATIONAL MAINTENANCE TRUCK TRACTOR, LINE HAUL, 50,000 GVWR, 6x4, M915 (NSN 2320-01-028-4395) TRUCK TRACTOR, LIGHT EQUIPMENT TRANSPORTER (LET), 56,000 GVWR, 6x6, W/WINCH M916 (NSN 2320-01-028-4396) TRUCK TRACTOR, MEDIUM EQUIPMENT TRANSPORTER (MET), 75,000 GVWR, 8x6, W/Winch M920 (NSN 2320-01-028-4397) TRUCK CHASSIS, 75,000 GVWR, 8x6, FOR 20-TON DUMP TRUCK M917 (NSN 3805-01-028-4389) TRUCK CHASSIS, 56,000 GVWR, 6x6, FOR BITUMINOUS DISTRIBUTOR TRUCK, M918 (NSN 3895-01-028-4390) TRUCK CHASSIS, 75,000 GVWR, 8x6, FOR CONCRETE- MOBILE MIXER TRUCK M919 (NSN 3895-01-028-4391) DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT A- Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.
