The electric winch, part
number 50-0203, and the
low-voltage control boxes,
part numbers 50-0043A and
50-0043B, shown on Pages
3-67 and 3-68 of TM 10-
5410-232-14&P, have been
replaced with the double
drum winch upgrade kit,
•
When using the double drum electric winch, keep tension on the cables. That way
you won’t wind loose cable off the winch drum and get it tangled. When you lower
the end door, stop the door about two or three inches above ground before the cables
go slack. Then secure the door with six tiedown straps. Always remember to release
the straps before raising the door.
•
Never replace just one
cable on the double drum
winch. Instead, replace both
cables at the same time. And
make sure both cables are the
same diameter. NSN 5410-
01-476-8675 brings a button
end cable 170 feet long and
1/4 inch in diameter.
For technical assistance, contact Robert Abruzzese,
Fabric Structure Team, at the Natick Soldier Center.
