M9 ACE…
A
step in the wrong spot can mean disaster for your armored combat earthmover.
What gives? Some
well-meaning mechanic
pulls the vehicle’s rear
access panels for main-
tenance and uses the
master relay’s protec-
tive box as a step. All
that weight breaks the
box’s mounting bracket,
shorting the master
relay. The end result is
your earthmover is dead
in its tracks!
O
perators, high daytime temps and cool nights in the Iraqi desert cause condensa-
tion to form in your ACE’s air brake system.
To keep the earth-
mover’s brakes braking,
drain the air tank daily.
Hold the valve open
until air stops escaping.
That keeps moisture
from stopping your
ACE in its tracks.
keep your boot
off
the relay’s
protective box!
hey!
watch
where you’re
steppin’, fella!
