WARNING SUMMARY–Continued

WARNING

Vehicles exposed to NBC must have all air filters replaced with extreme caution by experienced and

trained personnel. Unprotected personnel may experience injury or death if residual toxic agents or

radioactive materials are present.

Servicing personnel must wear:

Protective mask

Hood

Protective overgarments

Chemical-protective gloves and boots

Damaged or unusable filters are considered hazardous waste. Do not dispose of them like common

trash.

Filters must be placed into double-lined plastic bags.

Filters must be moved to a temporary segregation area away from the work site.

Final disposal of contaminated air filters must be in accordance with local Standard Operating Procedures

(SOP).

The same procedure applies for radioactive dust contamination; however, the company NBC team

should measure the radiation prior to filter removal to determine the extent of safety procedures required

per the NBC Annex to the unit SOP. The segregation area in which the contaminated air filters are

temporarily stored must be marked with appropriate NBC placards.

WARNING

High voltage is used in the operation of some equipment. Serious injury may result if personnel fail to

observe safety precautions.

Learn the areas containing high voltage in each piece of equipment.

Do not contact high voltage connections when installing or operating this equipment.

Before working on electrical equipment, harnesses, battery cables, or starter cables turn MASTER switch

to OFF position and disconnect battery ground cables.

Keep one hand away from the equipment to reduce the chances of current flowing through your body.
