HEMTT Tanker…
P
umping fuel is an M978 tanker’s business. Part of your business includes getting
the tanker ready for deployment and shipment overseas.
Here are some PM pointers to keep in mind.
Make sure all purging
solution is out of the
tanker before shipment.
Solution left in the tanker
gums up the tanker’s
plumbing, including the
hoses, pipes, valves and
filter separator. Eventually,
the tanker will not pump
fuel like it’s supposed to
when you need it.
So after purging, unload
the solution by following
the info in Para 2-15C in
TM 9-2320-279-10-1.
TM 9-2320-279-10
TM 9-2320-279-20-3
TM 9-2320-279-10-1
Those paragraphs have
the
lowdown
on drain-
ing solution from the
tanker’s plumbing.
getting your
tanker ready for
shipment involves
purging
the
tank. but
don’t
stop there!
First,
get the
attention
of the
person you
wish to
communicate
with.
Second,
deliver the
message
clearly.
Both of these
steps require
preventive
maintenance
to ensure they
are achieved.
Today, we
will examine
the history of
communications
and the
vital
role
that PM
played in the
process.
You’ll also need to
follow the word in Para
2-26A of TM 9-2320-2
7
9-10
and Para 25-3 of
TM 9-2320-2
7
9-20-3.
Communications
through the
ages has been
a
two-step
process.
