INITIAL SETUP: M a i n t e n a n c e L e v e l Operator P e r s o n n e l R e q u i r e d Driver R e f e r e n c e s TB Med 507 E q u i p m e n t C o n d i t i o n Engine started (WP 0013 00) DRIVING PRECAUTIONS WARNING When a track carrier gets out of control and overturns, it is safer to stay in the carrier than to try to get out while the carrier is still moving. You may receive slight injuries from being thrown against metal parts; but if you try to leave the carrier, it may roll over and crush you. Once the carrier stops moving, get out as fast as possible because spilled fuel and oil may catch on fire. The first thing the driver should do in such an emergency is shut off the engine and turn off the MASTER SWITCH to minimize the fire hazard. 1. Use 1-2 range until you get used to driving carrier. 0020 00-1
