Self-Load (M967, M967A1, M969, and M969A1).
Use the following procedure when it is necessary to use
the onboard engine and pump to load fuel from the
storage facility to the semitrailer (fig. 2-26).
(1) Review instructions in paragraph 2-8.
(2) Ensure that all valves are closed.
(3) Connect static
reel to storage facility
(fig. 2-7). Remove fire extinguishers and bring to point of
operation.
(4) Start engine (para 2-10). When engine is
warm, adjust to idle speed (1000-1200 rpm).
(5) Remove 4-inch bulk fuel hose from hose
trough (para 2-13).
(6) Remove dust cover from outlet B and connect
bulk fuel hose to outlet and storage facility.
(7) Put valve E (fig. 2-11) in LOAD position.
(8) Open valves A (para 2-11), B, and G.
(9) Adjust engine throttle for desired flow rate
(table 2-2).
WARNING
When filling tank by means of bottom loading,
a test of the precheck system is mandatory. If
this system is not functioning, stop all
operations. Determine the problem and have
It corrected by a qualified technician. Failure
of automatic shut-off to function may result In
uncontrolled fuel spillage and danger of fire
and explosion.
(10) Shortly after flow has started, open valve D to
precheck the shut-off float. If float is functional, flow
should stop after about 20-25 seconds (para 2-11g).
(11) Close valve D. Flow will resume in about 20
seconds.
WARNING
In an emergency, close valve A or pull
emergency valve shut-off on opposite side of
semitrailer.
(12) When tank is full, flow should stop automati-
cally.
(13) At end of operation, idle down engine. Close
all valves. Disconnect 4-inch bulk fuel hose(s) and put
them in hose trough. Secure hose trough latches.
