TM  5-3895-376-14&P Section  VII.  PREPARATION  FOR  STORAGE  OR  SHIPMENT 4-41. GENERAL This section provides instructions for preparing the compactor for short term and intermediate storage or shipment. 4-42.  ADMINISTRATIVE  STORAGE Administrative storage shall be in accordance with AR 750-1. 4-43. SHORT TERM STORAGE (30 days or less) W A R N I N G Do not smoke or use an open flame in the vicinity when filling fuel tank. Fire and/or explosion may result in damage to compactor and injury to personnel. a. Fill the fuel tank with W-F-800 diesel fuel. W A R N I N G Carbon monoxide occurs in the ex- haust fumes of internal combustion en- gines and becomes dangerously concentrated under conditions of inade- quate ventilation. Observe the following safety precautions whenever the engine is  running: Operate engine in a ventilated area only. Do not idle the engine for long peri- ods without maintaining adequate ventilation. Be alert at all times for exhaust odors and exposure symptoms. Be aware: the field protective mask for chemical biological radiological (CBR)  protection  will  not  protect  you from carbon monoxide poisoning. b. Start  the  engine  (Para.  2-5)  and  operate  the  com- pactor  for  2  minutes  at  full  load  speed. c. Shutdown  the  engine  (Para.  2-7). NOTE Do  not  drain  the  fuel  system  after  this  run. d. Check  oil  level  in  engine  and  fill  to  maximum mark  on  dipstick. e. Service  the  pre-cleaner  (Para.  3-6). f. Stow  the  compactor  on  level  surface  in  an  area protected  from  the  elements. 4-44. INTERMEDIATE TERM STORAGE (more than  30  days) a. b. C. d. W A R N I N G Carbon monoxide occurs in the ex- haust fumes of internal combustion en- gines and becomes dangerously concentrated under conditions of inade- quate ventilation. Observe the following safety   precautions   whenever   the   engine is   running: Operate engine in a ventilated area only. Do not idle the engine for long peri- ods without maintaining adequate ventilation. Be  alert  at  all  times  for  exhaust odors   and   exposure   symptoms. Be  aware:  the  field  protective  mask for chemical biological radiological (CBR)  protection  will  not  protect  you from carbon monoxide poisoning. Start  the  engine  (Para.  2-5)  and  operate  the  com- pactor  for  10  minutes  at  full  load  speed  to  bring engine  to  normal  operating  temperature. Shutdown  the  engine  (Para.  2-7). Drain  the  engine  oil  (Para.  4-12),  and  fill  crank- case to proper level with preservative lubricating oil  (MIL-L-2160,  Grade  2,  or  equivalent). Drain  the  fuel  tank  (Para.  4-30),  and  refill  tank with 1 pint (0.5 liter) mixture of 9 parts W-F-800 diesel fuel and 1 part preservative lubricating oil (MIL-L-2160,  Grade  2,  or  equivalent). 4-74
