THEORY OF OPERATION (Contd)

EXHAUST SYSTEM

Exhaust System Operation: The exhaust system has several configurations depending on vehicle and

engine models. The major exhaust system components are as follows:

F EXHAUST PIPES Direct exhaust gases away from vehicle and crew compartment.

G EXHAUST PIPE SHIELD Protects personnel from hot exhaust pipes.

H EXHAUST PIPE CAP Used in cold weather to prevent exhaust gases from escaping from exhaust

pipe. This forces gases through the exhaust pipes beneath the water tank keeping the water from

freezing. Gases then exit through rear of vehicle.
