REMOVAL
WARNING
· Any automatic fire extinguishing system (AFES) unit in need of maintenance
or repair is more prone to accidental discharge. Accidental discharge could
lead to frostbite or other injury. Small parts or tools become dangerous
projectiles when propelled by Halon discharging at 750 psi (5171 kPa). Do not
strike cylinder bottles with tools and do not drop cylinder bottles. To prevent
accidental discharge, be careful when handling cylinder bottles.
· The engine AFES is designed to provide from two to four hours of fire
protection AFTER vehicle shutdown. Turning off the MASTER switch does
NOT deactivate the AFES. Working on the AFES when the system is active
may cause serious injury to personnel.
