TB 9-2300-422-20 Section I. INTRODUCTION 1-1. Purpose. This bulletin is published to provide security of tactical wheeled vehicles. These instructions are based on requirements established by directive (AR 190-51 Security of Army Property at Unit and Installation Level). 1-2. Scope. a. This bulletin establishes minimum requirements needed to achieve the protection required for tactical vehicles of all classes. b. If vehicles are equipped with devices that attain a degree of security equal to that provided by those described in this TB, vehicles need not be modified solely to make them exactly compatible with the devices illustrated. 1-3. Installation Level. Organizational Maintenance shall perform the installation of security devices described within the bulletin.

Section II. PROCEDURES

TB 9-2300-422-20 CAUTION Follow all safety precautions when welding. Tack-weld only. Some steering column tubes are only 0.065-inch thick and could be damaged by excessive welding. DO NOT weld adjacent to steering column bushing. NOTE Approximately 18 in. (45.7 cm) of chain will be required to reach around steering wheel spokes to secure padlocks. b. The nuts are to be tack-welded (TM 9-237 Welding Theory and Application) to the screws for a permanent installation. In some cases, the clamp may not have a close fit on the steering column. If this occurs, it is permissible to tack-weld the clamp to the column itself to prevent rotation. WARNING Store chain by winding around column and securing with padlock. Failure to do so could cause chain to interfere with drivers feet. c. When vehicle is in use, chain will be stored by winding the chain around column and securing with padlock. If chain is left unsecured, it could interfere with driver s feet, causing driver to lose control of the vehicle. d. Steering wheel must be turned all the way to the left or right before securing vehicle with chain or cable. 2-3. Procedure for M880 series, 1 1/4 Ton Truck. WARNING During vehicle operations the chain should be stored beneath the drivers seat, looping chain upon itself, and securing it with a padlock to prevent entanglement with drivers feet. Do not allow additional locks to remain on the security chain, as this may impair proper stowage. CAUTION Welding is not allowed on these vehicles due to the potential fire hazard of the seats and floor mats. 4

TB 9-2300-422-20 a. The design of the steering column on the M880 vehicle will not permit the use of a standard clamp as a chain attachment. The following procedure should be utilized. b. Attach fixed end of chain with a 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) machinescrew, lockwasher, and nut into manufacturers hole that is located in the rear of seat riserplate on the operators side of vehicle. Fasten the chain on the inboard side of riser (Fig. 3). The nut is to be located on the outboard side of riser and, after securing, the screw should be staked to prevent removal.

WARNING During vehicle operations the chain should be stored beneath the drivers seat, looping chain upon itself, and securing it with a padlock to prevent entanglement with drivers feet. Do not allow additional locks to remain on the security chain, as this may impair proper stowage. a. Drill a 27/64 inch hole in front end of left hand seat riser bracket. Locate hole 9/16 inch from top of bracket and 5/8 inch from outboard edge of bracket. Insert screw threaded area forward into hole, attach end of chain with washer and nut, then tighten. After tightening, the nut should be staked to prevent removal (Fig. 4). Position chain around steering wheel spokes and secure with padlock. b.
