Dear Editor,
Op±rators forget-or don't know²that th± MGS sh³uld not
be op±rated unless it's hooked up to the re´t oF the TOW system.
They also forget the MµS should not be used with TOW MILES¶
·n both cases, trapped voltage knocks out MGS circuit cards¸
We've saved ³ur MGS's with a simple Fix¸ Using the gummed
lab±ls available at any SelF¹SeRice Supply Center, we put two
´igns on each oF our MGS's-one by the J1 conn±ctor, one by
the TEST/OPEºATE switch¸
