EQUIPMENT OFF-LOADING ARMY UNIT
EQUIPMENT OFF-LOAD
This section provides instructions for setting up the flat rack and off-loading equipment. As items are off-
loaded, place them in the general locations where they will be deployed, as determined by the site
selection and component location procedures in WP 0004 00. Once the flat rack has been set up,
equipment can be off-loaded from the operator station, equipment area, and generator area at the same
time if enough personnel are available.
NOTE
The figures in this work package show typical packout arrangements of the
various areas. Some items may not always be packed out exactly as shown.
A-TWPS Placement
Place the A-TWPS unit on the ground as follows:
1. Using an appropriate lifting device, lift the A-TWPS unit off the transportation unit (e.g. truck or
trailer) and set it on the ground in the desired location.
2. Remove the left, back end panel from the flat rack and remove the protractor (level) provided with
the unit from its holder on the frame at the operator end of the TWPS unit (see Figure 2).
3. Place the protractor (level) on any horizontal surface of the TWPS and check the following levels:
a. No more than 2 degrees cross-wise (front to back) (see Figure 2).
b. No more than 1 degrees length-wise (side to side) (see Figure 2).
4. If the levels exceed the recommended values, the site must be graded or the TWPS unit moved
to a site that meets the level requirements.
