O
perators, Step 2 in WP 0008-7 of TB 9-3950-253-13&P (Jul 09, w/Ch 1, Jun 12)
says to push the locking handle on the enhanced-container handling unit (E-CHU)
toward the container to secure the slide lock when transporting a container.
But when transferring a container to an M1076/M1076A1 trailer, there’s no safe
way to reach and unlock the slides so you can detach the E-CHU. The ladders in your
PLS and HEMTT BIIs aren’t tall enough, so you have to lower the container to the
ground, undo the slide locks, and then place the container on the trailer.
The slides should be locked
only
when you’re raising a
partially submerged container
or picking up a tipped-over lift
frame like it says in WP 0009
of the TB.
Dear Master Sergeant M.C.,
I sure can!
TACOM LCMC
has a new, fre-
resistant door
Foam that is
precut For doors
on the Following
HMMWV
models:
These are the only NSNs available now. So For doors on HMMWV
models other than those listed, you’ll need to order the Foam in bulk,
NSN 2510-01-575-4233. Then cut it to ft your doors.
Dear Half-Mast,
My unit needs thermal insulation kits, or foam padding, for our M1151A1
HMMWV’s front and rear doors. I’ve searched, but can’t seem to find any
NSNs. Can you help us?

To Lock or Not to Lock
E-CHU Slide Locks
Do not use slide locks
unless raising partially
submerged container
or picking up tipped-
over lift frame
Any other
time, leave the
slide locks
alone.
There’s a
right time
and
a
wrong time
to lock my
E-CHU slide locks.
Make a note
until the TB is
corrected.
