TM 9-2320-260-10 WARNING SUMMARY
After Nuclear, Biological, or Chemical (NBC) exposure of this vehicle, all air filters shall be handled with extreme caution. Unprotected personnel may experience injury or death if residual toxic agents or radioactive material are present. Servicing personnel will wear protective overgarments, mask, hood, and chemical protective gloves and boots. All contaminated air filters will be placed into double lined plastic bags and moved immediately to a temporary segregation area away from the work site. If contaminated by radioactive dust, the Company NBC team will measure the radiation before removal. The NBC team will determine the extent of safety procedures required. The temporary segregation area will be marked with the appropriate NBC signs. Final disposal of contaminated air filters will be in accordance with local SOP: Do not touch hot exhaust pipes with bare hands. Do not perform fuel system checks and inspection while smoking, or while near flames or sparks. Smoking, open flames, and sparks can cause battery gases to explode. Stay clear of dump body and cab protector at all times during loading and unloading operations. Never perform PMCS checks under raised dump body unless safety braces are properly positioned. Do not let vehicle coast downhill with clutch pedal depressed. Vehicle can go out of control. On dropside trucks, make certain forward end of dropsides are engaged before lowering tailgate. Dump body control lever in cab must be locked in "N" (neutral) position when dump truck is used as personnel carrier. Always chock vehicle wheels if operating site is on a grade, no matter how slight. After fording operations, do not rely on service brakes until they dry out. Pump brakes gradually when stopping vehicle on wet or slippery roads to avoid losing control of vehicle. Extreme care should be taken when removing surge tank filler cap if temperature gage reads above 175 F (79 C). Add coolant to cooling system only when engine is running. Add coolant slowly. This vehicle has been designed to operate safely and effciently within the limits specified in this TM.

TM 9-2320-260-10 2-22. OPERATION OF FRONT WINCH
WARNING HIGH INTENSITY NOISE Hearing protection is required for all personnel working in and around this vehicle while vehicle engine is running. a. General. Specified 5-ton, 6x6 trucks covered in the manual are equipped with front winch extension and front winch. The front winch is mounted on front of vehicle on support brackets attached to vehicle frame. Power for winch operation comes from a power takeoff mounted on the right side of the transmission. The power takeoff has high, low, and reverse gears, with neutral points between these gear positions. An internal automatic safety brake is used to hold winch load when power takeoff is being shifted. M816 and M819 vehicles have a level winding device and a cable tensioner assembly mounted on the top of front winch. When rewinding winch cable, the level winding device causes the cable to be wound tightly and evenly on the drum. When rewinding winch cable without a load on cable the cable tensioner assembly places tension on winch cable. This helps prevent kinks in winch cable.
Do not operate winch with a shear pin other than the aluminum pin shown in the parts list for the winch being used. Always stand clear of a winch cable under load. A snapped cable can cause serious injury. Do not wind out cable when attached to a load. Load must be wound in only. b. Preparation for Use: (1) Start engine; refer to paragraphs 2-12 and 2-13.
