TM 10-4930-241-13
Section III. OPERATION UNDER USUAL CONDITIONS
2-16. ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION FOR USE.
NOTE
Eight personnel are required to safely assemble the AFSSP.
a.
Site Selection. Select a firm, level installation area large enough to contain all system components. Melting and
refreezing soil, ice, and blowing snow present special hazards that must be anticipated before setting up the
Arctic Fuel System Supply Point (AFSSP). The site must provide access to the fuel system for resupply by
trucks, train and aircraft and provide adequate clearance for approaching equipment at the refueling points.
For additional information on selecting a site for the AFSSP, refer to FM 10-69.
After selecting the installation area, position all AFSSP components near the site.
b.
Unpacking.
(1)
Remove AFSSP components from the transport vehicle.
(2)
To aid assembly, separate components into groups of similar parts during removal. For example, group all
the collapsible hose, noncollapsible hoses, reducers, adapters, elbows, nozzles, fueling manifolds, valve
sections, grounding rods, and ball valves.
(3)
Unpack fuel tanks. Refer to TM 10-5430-231-12.
NOTE
Each Arctic Fuel System Supply Point (AFSSP) module can accommodate three tank (3,000, 10,000, or
20,000) assemblies in any combination. The quantity of each size of the tank assemblies is dependent
upon the amount of fuel authorized the user.
(4)
Unpack 600 GPM pumps. Refer to TM 10-4320-342-10.
(5)
Unpack the filter separators. Refer to TM 10-433-23613.
(6)
Unpack the accessory items.
c.
Position Components.
(1)
Using rough terrain forklift or suitable lifting device, position fuel tanks, filter separator, fueling manifolds, 600
GPM pumps and accessory items within the installation site.
(2)
Position bundled noncollapsible and collapsible fuel hoses next to the fuel tanks.
(3)
Position fueling manifolds and valve sections next to fuel tanks.
(4)
Assemble and prepare fuel tanks for use. Refer to TM 10-5430-231-12.
(5)
