M2/M3 BRADLEY FIGHTING VEHICLE: TURRET - OD1609 LESSON 3/TASK 3
NOTE
During the test procedure, the STE set communicator
(SETCOM) may display instructions referring to one of
several indexes. The contents of these indexes will not be
reproduced in this subcourse.
Instead, reference will be
made to the technical manual in which the index can be
found, when needed.
NOTE
During the test procedure, several pathways develop,
depending on the results obtained for individual tests
being run.
Not all pathways will be covered in this
subcourse. One typical pathway will be used as an example.
When actually performing the test on the vehicle, be sure
to have the TM 9-2350-252-20-2-1 on hand and respond to the
actual test results observed during testing.
