Printer:
If the GFCI circuit
breaker trips, the printer won’t
work.
If
the
printer
doesn’t
respond, try resetting the circuit
breaker (it’s for the 110 inverter)
before calling for a repairman.
Air conditioning:
It is critical when running the A/C to have the overpressure
turned on and the hatches closed. Otherwise, so much condensation collects that
water can start blowing out the vents in the suite. That moisture can ruin some very
expensive electronic components.
Probe safety:
Before you replace the
sampling wheels, ±rst store the probe.
The probe can reach a temperature of
446°F. It’s not something you want to
accidentally bump into!
M88 ACADA:
If you leave the ACADA
intake and exhaust valves open all the time,
that
will
eventually
foul
up
the
detector
cells. At shutdown, close both valves. Check
the diagram on the ceiling that shows the
ACADA’s open and closed positions to make
sure you have the valves closed.
i
f you follow some of the illustrations in the M26 decon’s TM 3-4230-238-10 and
-23&P, you can end up installing the fuel can wrong.
With the fuel can in the
wrong
position,
the
metal
braided fuel lines touch the
burner assembly. The rubber
interior of the fuel lines melt
and leak, which could lead to
a major ±re.
To prevent a ±re, install the
fuel can so that its lid is on the
opposite
side of the burner.
That way the fuel lines don’t
touch the burner.
The TM will be corrected, but in the meantime, cross out the incorrect references.
If you have any M26 questions, contact TACOM’s Emily Santiago at DSN 786-
1702, (586) 282-1702, or email:

are you
sure I’m
putting
this in

shouldn’t the lid

the burner?
well, the TM shows
the can going in the
way you have it.
hold on,

that’s the
