See TM 9-2350-261-10, TM 9-2350-300-10, or
TM 9-2350-259-10 for proper operating
instructions. Become familiar with all controls
and instruments before you road test.
Drive a new or reconditioned carrier at least 5
to 10 miles (8 to 16 km).
Make sure carrier operates normally.
Don’t start out too fast, or drive too fast. You’ll
overload the engine or power train.
Stop at least every mile. Look for overheated
hubs, loose parts, and fuel or oil leaks.
After the road test, the earner is ready for
regular soldier use.
