WARNING

Heavy objects/loads, such as tool boxes and heavy parts, must

always be carried on the floor with the weight distributed as

equally as possible between left and right sides of M1079A1 van.

Heavy cabinets must always be mounted as low as possible with the

weight distributed as equally as possible between left and right

sides of M1079A1 van. Remember to consider the weight of the

items that will be stored in the cabinets. Failure to comply

decreases the stability of the M1079A1 van and will increase the

likelihood of a rollover.

Always keep in mind, when placing items inside the M1079A1 van,

that heavier items must always be positioned between left and

right sides of M1079A1 van. Failure to comply decreases the

stability of the M1079A1 van and will increase the likelihood of a

rollover.
