REMOVE TRANSMISSION FROM MAINTENANCE STAND
(SHEET 5 OF 7)
WARNING
When rotating transmission from horizontal to vertical position, weight of
transmission is transferred from three-leg sling to two-leg sling. When
transmission center of gravity shifts, transmission may suddenly tilt, thrusting
heavy momentary stress on two-leg sling and hoist. TO avoid bodily injury or
death:
Check condition of slings; replace as necessary.
Stay clear of slings
Do not get under transmission.
CAUTION
Either sling, or both slings, should be raised as necessary to maintain at least
one-foot clearance between transmission and floor. Transmission will be
damaged if it hits the floor when weight shifts from one sling to the other.
15 One soldier slowly raise two-leg sling. Other soldier
raise three-leg sling as necessary to maintain proper
clearance between transmission (21) and floor.
16 Slowly raise two-leg sling until entire weight of
transmission (21) is on two-leg sling.
17 Using 9/16 inch socket, remove three-leg sling from
transmission (21).
18 Using two-leg sling, slowly lower transmission (21) to
work table or floor. Remove hooks of two-leg sling
from transmission.
