Tank Fender Repai²³ ´µ
The Hole's
too Big
Wrong-sized washers are causing
problems with fender fixes on tanks
and combat engineer vehicles.
The washers, NSN 5310²00¸809-
5997
and
NSN
have too_ Large a hole, wºich Lets the
screw pulL through.
The fix? Get a supply of washers,
NSN
5 310»00-080²600¼¹
and
stack
one on top of the existing washer.
You'Ll
need
a longer screw, NSN
5305-00-269-3215¹ to use the extra
washer.
This wilL save
replacing fenders
that get bashed by the track when the
screws don't hoLd.
