Personnel Heaters…
M
echanics, when you send a Stewart-Warner heater with a bad burner to DS for
repair, chances are they’ll put in a new burner instead of repairing the old one.
That’s because the burner repair kit, NSN 2540-00-255-0777, was left out of TM
9-2540-205-24&P.
Let DS know the repair kit is still available and that it works with Stewart-Warner
models 10560C, 10560G, 10560M and 10560M24B1.

y
our combat vehicle’s air filters are going to have a hard time filtering if they get
wet and freeze up. The engine can’t get the air it needs and pretty soon you’ve got
a burned-out engine.
So keep those air filter ele-
ments as dry as you can when
Mother Nature throws a little
slop your way.
Start with the air cleaner
intake. When your vehicle is
sitting, cover the intake with
canvas or plastic to keep out
rain, sleet and snow. Make sure
you remove the cover before
starting, though.
During operation, keep a
close eye on the air cleaner
indicator or air filter clogged
light so you’ll know when the
element is plugged. Get a
plugged filter cleaned, dried
out, or replaced—whichever is
needed—as soon as possible.
Use tarp
to cover
air intake
Wet filters will freeze
and choke off air supply
