Editor's Notes
- (CLASS DISCUSSION ON WHY MAINTENANCE IS EVEN MORE CRITICAL DURING ADVERSE WEATHER: WHAT SPECIAL CONCERNS DO YOU HAVE WHEN PERFORMING PMCS ON YOU VEHICLE IN ADVERSE WEATHER?) (SHOW SLIDE) CHECK WITH YOUR MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL TO DETERMINE THE PROPER MIX FOR YOUR AREA OF OPERATIONS. IT WILL VARY BY LOCATION. FOR EXAMPLE HUNGARY/CROATIA/BOSNIA REQUIRE A DIFFERENT RATIO THAN FT BENNING, GA.
- ASK , WHAT MORE CAN YOU DO DURING EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER TO ENSURE PROPER UTILIZATION AND CARE OF YOUR VEHICLE? ( SHOW SLIDE ) ( DISCUSES SLIDE )
- (CLASS DISCUSSION ON UNIQUE SAFETY CONCERNS WHILE PERFORMING PMCS IN COLD WEATHER) (SHOW SLIDE) DON’T TOUCH COLD METAL WITH YOUR BARE HANDS BECAUSE YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF STUCK. ALWAYS USE THREE POINTS OF CONTACT WHEN CLIMBING ON VEHICLES. (CLASS DISCUSSION: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO MAINTAIN THREE POINTS OF CONTACT?) YOU’RE AT GREATER RISK OF SLIPPING OFF OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO ICE AND/OR SNOW BUILD-UP.
