Personnel. Two persons can prepare and rig the M1037/M1097 HMMWV in 15 minutes. Two
persons can prepare and rig the howitzer in 10 minutes.
z
Procedures. Attach the howitzer to the truck by placing the lunette on the pintle hook and
securing the latch with tape or Type III nylon cord. Secure the safety chains. Position the
vehicle on level ground so both the truck and howitzer are in a straight line. The following
procedures apply to this load:
Preparation. Prepare the load using the following steps:
─
Fold mirrors inward and tie together with Type III nylon cord. Remove the doors and
secure to the seats with Type III nylon cord.
─
Secure all equipment and cargo inside the truck with tiedown straps, tape, or Type III
nylon cord.
─
Ensure the fuel tank is not over 3/4 full. Inspect the fuel tank cap, oil filler cap, and
battery caps for proper installation.
─
Engage the vehicle parking brake and put the transmission in neutral.
─
Ensure the front wheels are pointed straight ahead. Tie down the steering wheel, using
the securing device attached under the dashboard.
─
Place the howitzer in the folded-towed position. Ensure the knock-off hub is in the
horizontal position. Engage the right wheel parking brake (wheel with knock-off hub)
only.
─
Ensure the lunette is in the extended position. Install the towing eye stop (C-clamp) on
the lunette and secure in position with its retaining pin.
─
Secure the brake light cable to the trails with tape or Type III nylon cord.
─
Secure the sight cover to the dial sight with tape or Type III nylon.
─
Secure the firing platform, hand spike, and jack to the trail assembly with Type III
nylon cord.
─
If the detachable field spade is attached to the permanent spades, ensure the two
locking pins are installed and locked in place. Route and tie a length of Type III nylon
cord through the key ring of the safety cable and around the other end of the locking
pin.
─
Position a Type V platform clevis assembly in the tiedown provision located on the
outboard side of the truck frame above the left rear wheel. Ensure the bolt end of the
clevis is facing toward the howitzer. Route the free end of one tiedown strap under the
howitzer left trail, through the Type V platform clevis, and connect it to the hook on
the ratchet.
─
Route a second strap under and around the trail tube, aft (closer to the gun wheel hub),
of the triangular brace on the M119 trails, through the Type V platform clevis, and
connect it to the hook on the ratchet.
─
Repeat the procedures in the previous two steps on the right side of the load.
─
Position padding between the strap and the angled bracket (gusset) located forward of
the rear lift provision on the truck.
─
Tighten all CGU-1/B tiedown straps at the same time. Secure the excess strap and
safety the ratchet handles in the closed position with tape.
CAUTION
Do not attach the tiedown straps to the rear wheels. The wheels may
rotate in flight and the straps may become loose.

firing platform of the howitzer and places apex fitting 2 onto the aft cargo hook. The hookup team
then carefully dismounts the load and remains close to the load as the helicopter removes slack
from the sling legs. When successful hookup is assured, the hookup team quickly exits the
area underneath the helicopter to the designated rendezvous point.
Note. Advise the aircraft commander to release the sling set apex fitting on the side of the
howitzer away from the gun sights to prevent damage.
Derigging. Derigging is the reverse of the preparation and rigging procedures.
RIGGING STEPS
Note. The sling set on the howitzer may use 3 or 4 sling legs. If the fourth sling leg is used, it will be
attached to the lunette with the same link count as sling leg 3. Tape or tie sling legs 3 and 4 together
at 2-3 foot intervals over the entire length of the sling legs.
