TM 9-2320-280-10 d. Cargo Shell Door Emergency Service. NOTE Should both ends of the cargo shell door open at the same time, a safety catch built into the rear latch mechanism will normally engage the rear strikers and prevent the door from slinging forward. Should this occur, procedures to reinstall the door are provided in steps 1 through 8. If door has separated from all four strikers, notify unit maintenance. (1) Inspect the rear latch mechanism and ensure the rear strikers (2) have engaged the safety catch (3). (2) Turn locking device (9), pull the cargo shell door forward latch (6) from inside the vehicle, and completely raise door (5). (3) Release rear door latch locks (1), if locked. (4) Grasp raised door (5) from rear of vehicle with both hands and pull right side of door (5) straight down. A distinctive latching sound should be heard. 2-186
