TM 9-2350-261-10 OPERATE CARRIER OVER ROUGH TERRAIN — Continued 0061 00 DRIVE CARRIER ON SNOW, ICE, OR MUD C A U T I O N Sharp turns on snow, ice, or mud can cause carrier to throw a track. Make a series of small wide turns instead of one sharp turn. NOTE Do not drive on snow-covered grades unless you have to. If you do, go as straight up and down the slope as you can. 1. Use a low transmission range that moves carrier smoothly without digging in. Drive slowly to avoid skidding. 2. Slow carrier smoothly before making a turn. 3. If carrier breaks through crust of deep snow or soft soil, steer carrier straight to get back on crust. 0061 00-4
