4.

Check level of water in batteries (WP 0085 00).

5.

Don’t drive in any transmission range below 1-3 when you don’t have to.

6.

Don’t let dirt, sand, or bugs build up in the radiator fins. Have unit maintenance clean fins with water pressure.

Lubricate frequently. Heat, sand, dust, humidity, and salt all have a bad effect on lubricants and moving parts

(WP 0075 00).

8.

Stop and fix any problem as soon as it comes up, or as soon as tactical situation allows.

9.

Keep carrier clean. Fungus and mildew can grow fast in conditions of high heat and humidity. Look carrier over and

clean it often.
