The following are general safety precautions that are not related to
any specific procedure and, therefore, do not appear elsewhere in this pub-
lication. These are recommended precautions that personnel must under-
stand and apply during many phases of operation and maintenance.
Operator and maintenance personnel should be familiar with the
safety requirements before attempting installation or operation
of the equipment covered by this manual.
Failure to follow requirements and observe safety precautions
could result in injury or damage to the equipment.
For the successful execution of methods of equipment destruction
involving the use of demolition materials, all personnel should
become thoroughly familiar with the pertinent provisions of
FM 5-25.
