M32 Lightweight Handheld
Mortar Ballistic Computer
(LHMBC)
If your M32 won’t be used for
a while, place it in SHELF mode.
That
helps
conserve
the
M32’s
internal battery. And don’t forget
to fully charge the battery every 90
days. If the internal battery fails,
the entire M32 computer must be
replaced. For info on M32 storage
and charging, see TM 9-1220-252-
13&P, TM 9-1220-254-13&P, and
TM 9-1220-255-13&P.
If you have any mortar ±re control
questions, contact TACOM’s Kevin
Horn at DSN 786-1219, (586) 282-
1219, or email:

M150/M151 Mortar Fire Control Systems-dismounted
If you’re turning in or transferring the HMMWV and trailer the M150/M151 is
mounted on, ±rst remove the ±re control system’s components. That includes the ±re
control computer mount, 9W8/9W6 cables, ²op cover and associated hardware. If
you don’t, you probably won’t get them back. And they’re expensive to replace.
Remember
Acesory

Mortars…
Remember
Acesory
RuleS
What the… this
truck
won’t start!
What’s going on
here?
This
5-tonner
was
running
just fine
the other
day.
I don’t
get
it.
GAH!
GET
BACK!
WHAT
TH—?
Now it won’t start and
we’re supposed to have a
foot
of snow by nightfall.
I gotta get
moving!
Remembering
these
two rules
for your mortar
system’s accessory
equipment will make
your life
easier!
Remove M150/M151 equipment
before turning in HMMWV
If M32 isn’t
going to be
used, put it in
SHELF mode
and remember
to charge
battery every
90 days
