5 Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, deadly poison which, when breathed, deprives the body of oxy-gen and causes suffocation. Exposure to air containing carbon monoxide produces symptoms of head-ache, dizziness, loss of muscular control, apparent drowsiness, and coma. Permanent brain damage ordeath can result from severe exposure. Carbon monoxide occurs in exhaust fumes of internal combustion engines. Carbon monoxide canbecome dangerously concentrated under conditions of inadequate ventilation. The following precautionsmust be observed to ensure safety of personnel when engine of RTCH is NOT operate RTCH engine in enclosed NOT idle RTCH engine without adequate NOT drive RTCH with inspection plates or cover plates ALERT for exhaust poisoning symptoms.

6 They are: Headache Dizziness Sleepiness Loss of muscular you see another person with exhaust poisoning symptoms: Remove person from area. Expose to fresh air. Keep person warm. Do not permit physical exercise. Administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), if necessary. Notify a AWARE. The FIELD protective mask for nuclear-biological-chemical (NBC) protection will not protect youfrom carbon monoxide Best Defense Against Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Is Good Ventilation!TM 10-3930-675-24-1dWARNINGBATTERIES To avoid injury, eye protection and acid-resistant gloves must be worn when working around NOT smoke, use open flame, make sparks or create other ignition sources around batteries.

7 If a bat-tery is giving off gases, it can explode and cause injury to personnel. Remove all jewelry such as rings, IDtags, watches, and bracelets. If jewelry or a tool contacts a battery terminal, a direct short will result ininstant heating, damage to equipment, and injury to personnel. Sulfuric acid contained in batteries can cause serious burns. If battery corrosion or electrolyte makescontact with skin, eyes, or clothing, take immediate action to stop the corrosive burning effects. Failureto follow these procedures may result in death or serious injury to Flush with cold water for no less than 15 minutes and seek medical attention Flush with large amounts of cold water until all acid is removed.
