11. Preliminary
Instructions
a. The
instructions outlined in
paragraphs 11 and
12 are preparatory to the
calibration
process. Personnel should become familiar with the bulletin before beginning the
calibration.
b. Items of equipment used in this procedure are referenced within the text by common
c. Unless otherwise specified, verify the result of each test and, whenever the test
requirement is not met, take corrective action before continuing with the calibration.
Adjustments required to calibration the TI are included in this procedure. Additional
maintenance information is contained in the manufacturer's manual for this TI and
TM 55-6670-201-13&P.
d. Unless otherwise specified, all controls and control settings refer to the TI.
NOTE
Units having transfer equipment will use the transfer
technique. If calibration above 15,000 pounds is required, the
reference technique will be utilized. If transfer equipment is
not available, use reference technique pending availability of
transfer equipment. All TI's certified by transfer technique
will have a DA Label 163 affixed stating that each cell was
certified to 15,000 pounds only. When transfer technique is
used and TI cannot be adjusted to within tolerance, TI will be
forwarded for reference calibration and repair.
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE is used or exposed during the performance of
this calibration.
DEATH ON CONTACT may result if
personnel fail to observe safety precautions.
REDUCE
OUTPUT(S) to minimum after each step within the
performance check where applicable.
a. Connect three TI
cell cables to
proper cell observing and matching proper color coding.
b. Connect TI indicator to a 115 V ac power source.
c. Position controls as indicated in (1) through (5) below:
(1) Set POWER switch to 115 V position and allow 15 minutes for warm-up.
