DEMOLITION PROCEDURESTM 60A-1-1-31

NONELECTRIC DUAL FIRING SYSTEM

1. Perform test burn:a. Tie slip knot on end of time fuse roll, cut and discard 6"from

the other end. b. Cut a 3' length of time fuse and move 25'

downwind from explosives, and attach fuse igniter. Function igniter and time the burn.

c. Compute burn rate: Burn time (in seconds) /3 feet = time (in seconds) per foot.

2. Squarely cut required lengths of time fuse consistent with time needed to reach safe area, but not less than 6'.

3. Attach fuse igniter to one end of each length of time fuse, and, if necessary, install priming adapters.

4. Ensuring that you are 25' downwind from all explosive materials, remove a blasting cap and inspect the open end for foreign matter.

5. If the cap is good, insert and carefully seat it firmly until the flash charge is in contact with the end of the fuse.

6. Crimp cap 1/8" to ¼" from the open end of the cap.7. Repeat steps 4-6 above for second cap. Barricade /

sandbag firing systems until ready to prime into explosives.

TRANSPORT ITEMS TO DISPOSAL AREA:Note: 25' Separation between Caps and HE while transportingdownrange

1. Make cap holes, place charges.2. Ensuring that all nonessential personnel are a safe

distance away, prime into the explosives.3. Lay out time fuse in straight lines; secure as necessary

to prevent movement.4. If necessary, advise area commander to prepare for a

high order detonation, and ensure that all personnel are properly protected.

5. Yell "FIRE IN THE HOLE" three times in different directions.

6. Initiate igniters (ID Smoke) and return to the safe area.


ELECTRIC DUAL FIRING SYSTEM1. Conduct continuity checks on the following:

a. Test Setb. Firing Wirec. Blasting Caps (as follows):

(1) Ensuring you are 25' from all explosives, place caps under sandbag or other suitable barricade.

(2) Ground yourself and remove shunt. Connect to test set and check.

(3) Re-shunt(1) Repeat steps 1-3 for second cap.

2. Wire caps together by splicing one lead wire of each together, and repeat for the remaining set of lead wires.

TRANSPORT ITEMS TO DISPOSAL AREA

1. Lay firing wire back to safe area.2. Place charges and make cap holes.3. Test firing wire back to safe area.4. Prime in to explosives.5. Return to safe area.6. Check firing circuit.7. If necessary, advise area commander to prepare for

high order detonation, and ensure all personnel are properly protected.

8. Yell FIRE IN THE HOLE.9. Attach blasting machine to the firing wire and function.


MISFIRE PROCEDURES - GENERALAs a general rule, all misfires will incur a minimum 30 minute wait time.

NONELECTRIC MISFIRES1. Observe 60 minute wait time (from latest possible

elapsed time of expected detonation).2. When practical, insert a new non-electric dual firing

system into the charge without disturbing the other caps. Otherwise, place a secondary charge as close as possible to the original charge to ensure both detonate.

ELECTRIC MISFIRES

1. Make several successive attempts to fire.2. Check connection of firing wire to blasting machine

and try again.3. Try different blasting machine, or alternate power

source, if available.4. If misfire still exists, disconnect and shunt the firing

wire and begin the 30 minute wait time unless it can be ascertained that the blasting cap failure is strictly electrical.

5. Remove and disconnect old blasting caps and shunt wires.

6. Test, make a parallel circuit, and attach new blasting caps. Re-prime the charge and proceed with normal firing procedures.

BOMBS

UNIDENTIFIED INTERNAL FUZINGIf a US bomb with unidentified internal fuzing is found, the most hazardous fuze(s) must be assumed to be installed. In all cases, nose and / or tail, retarded or unretarded, the most hazardous fuze is the fuze, bomb, nose or tail, electronic, long delay, anti-disturbance, FMU 72/B. If evidence leads one to believe the fuze(s) are armed, you must choose between disposing of the bomb in place, or waiting a specified period and then performing an RSP.

If you choose either of the disposal procedures, proceed to 60B-2-2-3, para 5.b., regardless of the type of bomb.

If you choose to wait the specified waiting period, the hazard must be re-evaluated after the specified waiting period. If the bomb utilized a retardation device, and there is evidence that there is a tail fuze, then the most hazardous fuze at this time would be the fuze, bomb, tail, FMU 54/B. The reason for this is that the hazard posed by the possible FMU 72/B has passed after the wait time has elapsed, but the hazard still exists for the possible FMU 54/B. Therefore, the procedure in 60B-2-3-22 must be performed to remove the tail closure plug.

If, after this procedure, it is determined that the tail fuze is NOT the FMU 54/B, then this procedure must be discontinued, and the remainder of the correct procedure for the particular fuze encountered must be started.

If it is determined that the tail fuze is the FMU 54/B, then the remainder of the procedure for the FMU 54/B must be performed prior to attempting the removal of the nose closure plug if there is evidence of a nose fuze. The removal of the nose closure plug should be accomplished IAW 60B-2-3-41, for the FMU 72/B.

If after this procedure, it is determined that the fuze is NOT the FMU 72/B, then this procedure must be discontinued, and the remainder of the correct procedure for the particular fuze encountered must be started.

If it is determined that the fuze is the FMU 72/B, then the remainder of the procedure for the FMU 72/B must be performed IAW 60B-2-3-41.

If the fuze closure plug(s) can not be removed, or the fuze(s) can not be identified after the removal of the fuze closure plug(s), then the bomb must be disposed of IAW

60B-2-2-3, para 5.b.

BOMBS

UNIDENTIFIED INTERNAL FUZING (Continued)

If the fuze closure plug(s) can be removed and the fuze(s) identified, but the RSP cannot be performed for any reason, such as the fuze well being deformed, the bomb should be disposed of IAW 60B-2-2-3, or the specific bomb publication, or the specific fuze publication, depending on the circumstances that prevail at the time.

MINEFIELD OPERATIONS

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONSDo not spill any powder from the cartridge case after extracting the bullet. The powder is a potential fire and explosive hazard. Powder spilled between the cartridge case and cartridge holder of the extractor may make removal of the cartridge case difficult as well as dangerous.

Observe the safety summary and EOD procedures in the specific fuze manual concerning deviations from these procedures.

Ensure that the lead wires of the cartridge are shunted, unless testing or connecting to other leads or firing wire.

Ensure that the wrench can be properly fitted to the component to be removed before attempting its installation. This may include removal of parts, earth, or debris as a preliminary step.

Review EMR hazards and precautions and electrical grounding procedures prior to utilizing impulse cartridges or electric blasting caps.

WARNINGDo not jar, jolt, or otherwise mishandle a fuze after its removal by the impact or rocket wrench. The fuze may have become more sensitive as a result of wrench removal.

CAUTIONSBefore installing the jaw slide assembly, when using the conical jaws, ensure that the teeth of the jaws and the small concave side of the conical jaw assembly faces outward (toward the smaller end of the component to be removed).

Tighten the bolts of the jaw assembly until the jaw teeth sink slightly but firmly into the fuze body. Ensure that the jaws are attached to the fuze only and not to any part of the ordnance (bomb or projectile).

Only cartridges with the same color lead wires should be used.

TAPE AND LINETM 60A-2-1-1, 18 NOV 92, w/cg 1


SAFETY PRECAUTIONSStake, sandbag, or otherwise secure the ordnance to keep it from moving when fuze or hexagonal base plug removal is attempted. The force exerted by pulling on the line, plus the leverage produced by the wrench handle, may cause small and medium size ordnance to roll or pivot on their axis.

Keep the line leading away from the fuze perpendicular to the fuze body or the handle of the modified FRA unless called for in the procedure. Tightening the jaws may prevent the wrench from disengaging after the fuze is broken loose.

Do not pull on the line after it is attached to the pipe wrench until all personnel are in a safe area. The initial pull to break the fuze loose may function the fuze. However, slight tension on the line may be required to prevent the wrench from falling off the fuze before personnel return to the safe area.

WARNINGObserve EOD procedures in the specific fuze manual concerning deviations from the procedures herein. Failure to comply with any deviations may function the fuze.

GAGGING/IMMOBILIZATIONTM 60A-2-1-60

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONSCAUTION

Follow manufacturer's directions for preparing epoxy mixtures and make all required preparations for application before mixing the epoxy. Epoxy mixtures will normally begin to set up and become difficult to work within a few minutes after mixing.

WARNINGSWear goggles and rubber gloves, and avoid breathing epoxy fumes during all mixing and application operations.

Do not remain in the area while POP or epoxy is curing. POP and epoxy release heat when curing.

Do not strike or jar ordnance during the external gagging procedure.

Do not permit unnecessary movement of the item being gagged.

Perform initial movement of all gagged items remotely.

Be aware that heat producing gagging materials such as foams, epoxies, POP, etc., used on chemical delay action fuzing systems can accelerate the delay times causing the fuze to function before their predetermined delay times.

NOTEKeep gagging techniques as simple as possible. For the most part it is left to the ingenuity of the person performing the gagging procedure. The material used for gagging is usually chosen from that on hand. Gagging is at best a temporary measure providing an additional degree of safety for the transport of hazardous ordnance.

INCENDIARY GRENADE PREPARATION

EMR AND SHIELDINGTM 60A-1-1-12, DTD 10 MAY 89, W/CG 1

GENERAL NOTES

h Proximity fuzes are most susceptible to EMR.

h The most sensitive portion of a bomb is the fuzing mechanism or device.

h Two areas on rockets are considered EMR (RF) hazardous. The fuze and the rocket motor.

h Cartridges, without firing leads, but with electrical primers, are also sensitive to EMR.

h Electrical blasting caps, shunted or not, are also susceptible to EMR. Stretched out lead wires act as a dipole antenna. When coiled they can act as a closed loop antenna. Keep blasting caps in a sealed metal container until ready for use.

h Always shield munitions and loose wires, from the effects of EMR, do NOT short.

h Metal foil tape, not less than 1" wide, used to seal a seam between two sheets of metal foil is as effective as folding the edges together to form a watertight seam.

h All metal containers do not provide total shielding of the contents from the RF environment, but such comprehensive protection is not required. Placing aluminum foil around the top of metal ammo cans (so it will engage the lid when closed) will provide sufficient protection.

h All exposed firing bands, buttons, rings, electrical contacts, and plug prongs should be covered with electrical insulating tape.

EMR AND SHIELDINGTM

WRAP IN FOIL (WIF) PROCEDURESIn Safe Area

1? Improvise a standoff with non-static producing material, such as cardboard or a paper cup (do NOT use plastics, styrofoam, or other static producing material).

2? Construct single layer of foil, with edges overlapping and mating edges folded together to form a watertight weal. RTV can be used within the fold to ensure fold stays in place. An aluminum can, with the top cut off, can be used, provided that it will fit over the fuze and standoff. Multiple layers of foil increase the strength of the wrap and reduce the possibility of the shield being compromised by tear or punctures.

Transport Items to Incident SiteThe orientation of the ordnance should NOT be changed until the shielding application is completed.

1? Tape all jagged edges, as required.2? Do not touch any exposed wiring.3? Emplace standoff, and secure with tape, if necessary.4? If necessary and possible (or practical), remove any

paint, oil, corrosion, or any other non-conductive material from the ordnance surface to ensure good metal to metal contact between foil and ordnance. A file can be used to remove paint.

5? Emplace shielding material, ensuring a tight wrap around the ordnance skin, as flat as possible. Seal with metallic tape, if available. If not available, use electrical tape. The width of the tape should be wide (several tape widths), and the wrap as smooth as possible.

6? Cover ordnance holes, if present, in the same manner.7? Essentially must be waterproof.

MK 32 X-RAYTM 60A-2-1-42, DTD 14 JUL 89


Safety Precautions

Film badges will be worn by all personnel present during x-ray operations.

Safety is one of the most important considerations when using x-ray equipment. Unnecessary exposure to radiation, no matter how small, is too much.

All personnel will stay at least 15' from the apparatus (or at the fullest extension of the remote control cable) when it is in operation.

Be aware that the x-ray apparatus incorporates printed circuits, capacitors, and other electronic components which generate high voltage and x-rays. Misuse or carelessness during operation could cause death or injury.

Warnings

When handling and processing film, keep developer pod chemicals away from the eyes and mouth and off the skin. Immediately wipe off any chemicals that get on the skin and wash the affected area with plenty of water.

Remove all electrical power to the x-ray apparatus before removing the x-ray tube.

Cautions

When operating the x-ray apparatus under normal operating conditions, wait 4 minutes after each series of 99 pulses.

Before operating the x-ray in the AC mode, ensure that the voltage selector switch inside the battery compartment is set to the appropriate voltage setting (before connecting the AC power cable to electrical power source). Protect film packets from direct sunlight. Do NOT press or squeeze the developer chemical pods in 10x12 film packets. When checking a battery in the battery charger, do not press the battery test button for more than 2 seconds. This will result in battery discharge.Do not charge a battery for more than 12 hours in the x-

ray apparatus.Wear surgical gloves when handling an x-ray tube.


GENERAL PROCEDURES1. Ensure all necessary equipment is available.2. Conduct survey of IED location and note size, shape,

placement, and density of IED.3. Determine the following:

a. Placement of the film in relation to the IED, and film packet preparation method.

b. Placement of the x-ray apparatus and its mode of operation.

c. Placement of shielding if scatter is likely to occur.d. Number of exposure pulses.

4. Return to safe area and prepare equipment.5. Return to IED location and place cassette or film

packet behind and as close as possible to the IED and position shielding material.

6. Position x-ray and connect to external power source, if necessary.

7. Actuate x-ray apparatus.8. Move at least 15' away from the x-ray.9. After x-ray has functioned, return turn off x-ray and

move cassettes and other equipment to the safe area.10.Process film and interpret radiograph.


X-RAY HINTSShielding: Construction materials, such as plasterboard, wood, and concrete, can all cause scatter. Polyvinyl-lead shielding should be placed near the film and target to absorb scatter and protect the film.

(Source to Film Distance SFD): When x-raying a high density object, such as a pipe bomb or projectile fuze, a standard SFD of 24" has been established as a baseline.

Clarity: If a print has poor definition or appears fuzzy, the film was too far away from the IED, or the x-ray is too close to the IED. Decrease the film-to-IED distance, or move the x-ray farther away form the IED. If a print has poor definition and the image appears enlarged, the film was too far away from the IED. Decrease the film-to-IED distance.

Exposure: Taking several x-rays of a target object initially and varying the exposure may increase the probability of obtaining a readable radiograph. Exposure may vary when x-raying items which appear alike. This depends entirely upon the density and composition of the materials of which they are made. Two galvanized pipes of the same diameter and thickness may require different exposures. One manufacturer may use slightly different materials in the pipe than another manufacturer. If an exposure estimation is based on x-raying an object when an intensifying screen is used with the film, exposure without the screen must be increased. The lowest possible exposure with the x-ray is 1 pulse of radiation. The methods of reducing this exposure are to increase the SFD, to expose the film without an intensifying screen, or to use a radiographic filter. A polyvinyl-lead sheet can be placed over the forward end of the x-ray when exposure of less than 1 pulse is desired.

Exposure Correction: If the print is too light, it is over-exposed. Increase the number of pulses, or reduce the SFD. If the print is too dark, it is under-exposed. Reduce the number of pulses or increase the SFD.
