WARNING SUMMARY (cont)
WARNING
A towed carrier does not have steering until it reaches 3 mph plus. Personnel can be killed or
injured. Use tow bar or two tow cables and use brakes to stop carrier, when necessary.
WARNING
Filters and masks of the NBC system will not protect you against carbon monoxide, ammonia,
acid, or solvent fumes. Be sure the carrier is properly ventilated. Do not let any filters of the
NBC system get wet. Water will destroy their ability to take the deadly chemical and biological
agents out of the air. Contaminated filters must be handled using adequate precautions and
must be disposed of by trained personnel. If it is very cold outside, there is danger of frostbitten
lungs from inhaling the cold air. Do not connect the hoses to your M42 mask canister until NBC
system has been operating at least 15 minutes with the heater turned on.
WARNING
If it is very cold outside, there is danger of frostbitten lungs from inhaling cold air. Do not
connect the hoses to your M42 mask canister until heater has run for at least 15 minutes.
WARNING
Smoke grenades can explode and kill or injure personnel. Handle grenades with care. Do not
