M872A4 Semitrailer TM Note Change
A caution sticker on your M872A4 semitrailer says, “Do not connect the 12-volt and 24-
volt cables at the same time or damage to the tractor electrical system may occur!” It’s
found on the right side of the intra-vehicular (IV) receptacles. So the note shown in WP
0004 00 and WP 0007 00 of TM 9-2330-331-14&P (Dec 05) that says, “During blackout
operation, both the 12-volt and 24-volt power cables are required,” is wrong. The note
should read, “During blackout operation, only the 24-volt power cable is required.”
Make a note until the TM is updated.
M939/A1/A2-Series Truck
Hot Water Heater Blower Motor
A new blower motor for the M939/A1/A2 5-ton’s personnel water heater comes with
It replaces NSN 6105-00-512-9225, which is shown as Item 27 in
Fig 549 of TM 9-2320-272-24P-2 (Feb 99).
The new blower motor includes an impeller
fan, mounting hardware and instructions.
Install it just like you did the old fan by
following the procedures starting on Page 3-782 of TM 9-2320-272-24-2 (Jun 98).
Turn In All Towbar Parts
When it’s time to turn in your wheeled vehicle towbar, NSN 4910-01-365-9304, make
sure you include all of its components.
Too often, towbars are arriving at Red River
Army Depot, TX, without the clamp assembly, NSN 5120-00-624-0556.
That increases
costs and adds to the time it takes to repair and reissue the towbars.
Behind the Hull
In
another
case,
a
battery
cable behind the hull shorted out
against the Roxtec armor cover.
This
fre
occurred
behind
the
hull, directly above the Front oF
the Fuel tank!
Plain and simple—a damaged
or chaFed battery power cable
renders the M-ATV NMC.
The headshed is working on
a
solution
to
stop
these
fres
with
added
wire
insulation
or
re-routing. But until they do, tell
your mechanic about any chafng
or damaged cables
PRONTO!
