SECTION II. SERVICE UPON RECEIPT
4-4. SITING.
a. Transport. The AFARE is designed to be packaged and transported by truck or aircraft. Secure
AFARE components to the transport vehicle before movement.
b. Site Selection. When selecting a site for installation of the fuel system, consider the overall operating
area Siting must include access to the aircraft staging area and provide adequate space to set up the system
and space for movement of tankers (minimum space required 100 x 300 feet). Site should be level, free of
overhead obstructions and provide good drainage to prevent water damage. Avoid low areas where fuel
vapors can collect. To prevent a hazard to personnel and equipment, site must be located downhill or
downstream from other installations. For addition siting information, refer to FM 10-68 and FM10-69.
4-5. SHELTER REQUIREMENTS.
The fuel system does not require special sheltering during normal operation. Store unused fuel system
components in a storage van or shelter to prevent damage and minimize routine maintenance.
4-6. CHECKING UNPACKED EQUIPMENT.
a. Unpacking Fuel System Equipment. Components of the AFARE are packaged and shipped in
cardboard boxes or crates. Where possible, save packaging materials for reuse. Use care when unpacking to
prevent damage to fragile components. This manual addresses installation and use of all components, but you
may not need to unpack all of them to perform your mission.
