rewmen, heading out to the feld means taking a
lot
oF gear. So make sure your
bustle rack is equipped to handle everything you’ll need.
Get an adjustable cargo net made especially For your M1’s bustle rack with NSN
3940-01-503-8210. The net hooks into place over the bustle rack and is easily
adjustable For a snug ft.
A three-position molded nylon clamp locks a clinching rope, which goes around
the entire net. Each net comes with a bag For storage and instructions on how to
attach it to the rack.
Also, iF you fnd that you have more gear than your M1’s bustle rack can handle,
order an extension kit, including the hardware, with NSN 2590-01-496-4092. The
extension kit will ft all M1-series tanks’ bustle racks, including ones equipped with
an external auxiliary power unit.
A missing or damaged O-ring means you
won’t get a good seal and the hub can leak. IF
the leak’s bad enough, the hub goes dry and
the bearings can burn up.
Replace missing or damaged O-rings with
NSN 5330-12-156-4524. IF the old O-ring is
undamaged, wipe it oFF beFore reinstalling
the plug. IF there’s a lot oF dirt or sand on the
O-ring, it won’t seal properly and you’ve got
leak problems all over again.
