Water Tanks…
fill-line reminder
y
ou’ll end up with wet boots and a burst 3,000-gal onion tank, GTA-Z60 TPW,
NSN 5430-01-469-8744, if you follow the info on Page 0002 00-2 of TM 10-5430-
237-12&P.
That’s because the water fill level says 45 inches. That’s wrong—it should be
32 inches!
Filling the onion tank to 45
inches is almost the equivalent of
5,000 gallons of water. The tank
will rupture and break at that
level. It’s only designed to hold
3,000 gallons of water.
Play it safe with no more
guesswork. Use a yardstick to
mark a line at 32 inches around
the tank with a permanent marker.
In the meantime, make a note of
the error until there’s a change or
revision to the technical manual.
