3.5 INSTALLATION OF KIT COMPONENTS AND REMOVED ITEMS

The following sections describe the installation of the Kit components and reinstallation of

selected items removed in Section 3.4. The Kit components should be installed in the order

presented. This will prevent having to remove previously installed armor to install additional

armor pieces, and will ensure that components are properly aligned when fastened together.

WARNING

THE EDGES OF THE METAL ARMOR PANELS HAVE BEEN DE-BURRED.

HOWEVER, PROTECTIVE GLOVES SHOULD BE WORN BY THE

INSTALLATION TEAM TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY.

THE PLS ARMOR COMPONENTS ARE HEAVY ITEMS THAT REQUIRE

MORE THAN ONE PERSON AND / OR APPROPRIATE MATERIAL-

HANDLING EQUIPMENT (HOIST, FORKLIFT, ETC.) FOR HANDLING. THE

WEIGHTS OF THE COMPONENTS BEING INSTALLED ARE SUFFICIENT TO

CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. CARE MUST BE TAKEN

DURING INSTALLATION TO PREVENT INJURY.

HOISTING OPERATIONS HAVE INHERENT HAZARDS THAT CANNOT BE

MECHANICALLY SAFE-GUARDED. PERSONNEL ARE REQUIRED TO

WEAR HARD HATS AND SAFETY SHOES DURING INSTALLATION TO

PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY.
