n. 1. Office employees and other personnel who work days. 2. The side of a planet facing the sun. day shroud covers can damage the TADS/PNVS if they're forgotten and left on during operation. Leaving the covers on while operating the TADS will damage the day side subassembly shroud, the covers and the shroud's internal anti-ice card. Instead of tying a string around your finger as a reminder, do a walk-around to ensure all the covers are removed before rotating the TADS. A useful idea is to tie all the covers together with some elastic cord, 830500-276-7575, so they can be removed at the same time before TADS/PNVS operation. That'll also keep covers together. The TADS/PNVS contain some expensive LRUs. The bore sight protective cover, if left on, is usually the culprit that damages or scrapes the sensitive optics when the TADS turrent is rotated. So whenever you operate the TADS/PNVS, take off the protective covers to prevent jamming the turrent. But when you remove any of the LRUs oil the TADS/PNVS for storage or shipment, keep your fingers off the optic lenses and use the covers to give the lenses the best protection. 'Course, when shipping or storing TADS/PNVS LRUs, use the shipping containers outlined in TM 1-5855-265-20 to protect the unit from damage. |
