NO PLIERS, P1


 Pliers... ? They're strictly taboo on nickel-cadmium batteries. Never use 'cm.
Tightening those.metal plier jaws on the cell filler vent caps could cause the caps
to crack. Use the nylon wrench that's issued with the battery; it's FSN 5120-059-
4876 on Pg 3.312 of Fed Cat C5120-IL-A (Jan 69), if you need one.

 LANYARD LAMENT
 For the want of an eye the chassis was lost.
 No poet wrote it. That's a straight PM fact, taken from the pen which wrote
the last DA Form 2407 work request on an AN/PRR-9, AN/PRT-4 squad
radio lanyard eyelet.

 t LANYARD
 Some Joes force the lanyard snap
 through the eyelet on the receiver or EYET SNAP
 transmitter cases instead of looping the
 lanyard cord through the eyelets. Re-
 sult, regularly, is that the eyelet breaks
 off.
 Follow-up result: the whole chassis,
 or case, must be salvaged because the LOOP THE CORD
 eyelet can't be repaired. .
 'Nother method of breaking the eyelet is swinging the receiver or transmitter
 by the lanyard.
 So-o-o-o, keep the snap end of the lanyard away from the eyelet... and swing
 your partner.
