  1. Equipment Training WINTER Supplies EADY “We were too busy getting the job done to get it right the first time!” A. Loser

  2. Set antifreeze protection level to between –20 and –40 for Europe. Coolant is a mixture of antifreeze and water. Only add coolant! 1 Gall coolant = $8.75 Worn belts = $5.75 (Each) Slightly worn hose = $11.75 1 Small Engine = $ 6,386.03 (Plus repair time!) TM 9-8000 Principles of Automotive Technology http://autorepair.about.com/mbody.htm Technical Manuals –10 & -20

  3. PMCS Repair Prepared Not - Prepared Mission Ready??? Prevention Time Readiness = Standards are posted Technical Manual -10 Key Knowledge Terms Technical Manual Torque Value Measurement Gage Special Tools

  4. $5.60 • 15 minutes • Common tool Loose cable or clamp means 600 amp arc welder!!! Terminal Cleaner ? • $75.58 • 30 minutes installation • + Time, transport, labor • - If readily available 1 Battery = 600 Amps (Times how many in your system!!!) $9,069.60 6140-01-446-9498 $75.58 Each 5 ton = 4 each = $302.32 per Truck Average unit with 30 trucks = httm://www.4unique.com/battery/battery_tutorial.htm LEARN MORE HERE –FREE!!!

  5. -10 -10 Publications Publications Supervision!!! Slave Starting Requirements Reminder: A discharged battery will freeze at +32F and may explode if a load is placed against it!! Live Vehicle Serviceable Slave Cables When possible, use the charger from the common tool set! It’s there for this! Dead Vehicle Slaving does not mean you skip PMCS! Slaving means you started your engine from other batteries, Now to recharge your batteries, use this rule of thumb. Divide your capacity (M923 has 4 X 600 amp batteries) by your capability (M923 has 60 amp alternator) thus; 600 X 4 = 2400 divided by 60 = 40 ‘running hours’ to recharge

  6. What holds you on the road? Try CTA 50-970, Appendix A Recovery doesn't need the practice!! Put your chains on when needed! If the roads ‘might’ go red, you should already have chains on board and be able to install them. Correctly! If the roads ‘might’ go red, you should already have received annual training on cold weather operations. If not you are unsafe!
