solvent are inflammable and should not not be used near an open
flame.
Fire

These cleaners evaporate quickly and have a drying effect
on the skin.
If used without gloves, they may cause cracks
in the skin and, in the case of some individuals, a mild
irritation or inflamation.
The use of Diesel fuel oil, gasoline, or benzene (benzol)
for cleaning is prohibited.
Section Il. AIMING POST LIGHT M1 4
21. Genera l
Aiming post lights contain no moving parts and there are no adjust-
ments to perform internally that are essential to the maintenance
of a unit. For these reasons no aiming post light should be disas-
sembled unless the tests described in paragraph
15d
indicate the need
for further check or replacement of a part not accessible without
disassembly.
