manual shall observe the following warnings.
Disregard of these warnings and precautionary information
can cause serious injury or death.
WARNING
STARTING ENGINES
Coordinate all cockpit actions with ground observer.
Insure that wheels are chocked (if applicable), rotor
and blast areas are clear, and fire guard is posted.

GROUND OPERATION
Engines will be started and operated only by authorized
personnel.
WARNING
ROTOR BLADES
Beware of moving rotor blades, particularly the
blades of the forward rotor system.
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
All ground handling personnel must be informed of
high voltage hazards when making external cargo
hook–ups.
WARNING
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
Exposure to high concentrations of fire extinguishing
agents or decomposition products should be
avoided. The liquid should not contact the skin. It
may cause frostbite or low temperature burns.
WARNING
ARMAMENT
Loaded weapons or weapons being loaded or unloaded,
shall be pointed in a direction which offers
the least exposure to personnel or property in the
event of accidental firing. Personnel shall remain
clear of the hazardous area of all loaded weapons.
WARNING
VERTIGO
Turn the anti–collision lights off during flight
through clouds. This will eliminate light reflections
from the clouds, which could cause vertigo.
WARNING

When smoke, suspected carbon monoxide fumes, or
symptoms of anoxia exist, the crew should immediately
ventilate the aircraft.
WARNING

RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS
Instrument dials on CH–47 series aircraft contain
radioactive materials. If an instrument is broken or
becomes unsealed, avoid personal contact with the
item. Use forceps or gloves made of rubber or polyethylene
to pick up contaminated material. Place the

and dispose of it as radioactive waste in accordance
with AR 385-11 and TM 3-261. (Refer to TB 43-0108).

to ALE calls automatically without operator action.
Anytime local flight directives forbid HF emissions,
such as ordinance loading or refeuling, or
when personnel are working near the aircraft, ensure
the radio set control function switch is set to SILENT,
STBY, or OFF.
