TM 1-1500-204-23-1 (j) Bond   the   nozzle   to   the   aircraft before taking the dust cap off the nozzle and the cap off the  fill  port.    If  the  aircraft  has  a  receiver  for  the  bond plug,  use  the  plug,  if  not,  clip  the  alligator  clip  to  a  bare metal part of the aircraft. (k) Open   the   aircraft   fill   port   and remove the nozzle dust cap. NOTE When using an open-port nozzle or the CCR   nozzle   adapter,   put   the   nozzle well down into the port.  Do not open the nozzle until it is inside the fill port When using the CCR nozzle, mate the nozzle into the fill port.  If they will not latch  together,  look  for  dirt  in  the  fill port  or  on  the  nozzle.    Wipe  the  fill port   out   and   clean   the   nozzle,   then mate the two together. (l) Refuel  using  procedures  outlined in FM 10-68. (m) Replace  the  cap  on  the  fill  port and then replace the nozzle dust cap before disconnecting the nozzle bond. (n) Remove  the  nozzle  bond  plug  or undo the alligator clip Reel up the hose and nozzle Do not drag the nozzle across the ground. (o) Undo   the   clip   that   grounds   the aircraft Replace the fire extinguisher used at the nozzle. (p) Release   the   clip   on   the   ground rod  and  reel  up  the  grounding  cable.    Do  not  drag  the cable clips across the ground.  If the refueling operation is over and the refueler ground rod was used, pull the rod up and stow it in the refueler.  Replace the fire extinguisher in the refueler. (3) Safety   requirements.        The    following safety   requirements   must   be   followed   when   refueling Army aircraft. ·  Do not allow any open flame, open-flame device, or  lighted  smoking  materials  within  50  feet  of  an aircraft refueling operation. NOTE Personnel  who  refuel  aircraft  may  not carry    lighters    or    matches    on    their persons  and  must  not  allow  anyone else   to   carry   a   lighter   or   matches within   50   feet   of   an   aircraft   that   is being  refueled.  Use  of  exposed-flame heaters,   welding   or   cutting   torches, and  flare  pots  is  forbidden  within  50 feet of refueling operations. ·  Do not allow electrically powered tools to be used in the refueling area. ·  Do  not  allow  any  metalworking  tools  to  be  used within 50 feet of an aircraft being refueled. ·  Do   not   use   flashlights   within   50   feet   of   the refueling  operation  unless  the  lights  are  of  the approved explosion-proof type. ·  Do not allow flashbulbs or electronic flash devices to  be  used  within  10  feet  of  refueling  equipment or the fill port or fuel tank vents of aircraft. ·  Do not remove any piece of clothing while within 50   feet   of   a   refueling   operation   or   in   an   area where a flammable vapor-air mixture may exist. NOTE If   fuel   gets   on   clothing,   leave   the refueling area as soon as refueling is completed.      Wet   the   clothes   with water  before  taking  them  off  if  there is not enough water at the site to wet the clothes thoroughly, ground yourself    to    a    piece    of    grounded equipment  by  taking  hold  of  it  with both hands before taking off the fuel- soaked   clothes.      A   skin   irritation from   fuel   is   not   fatal,   the   fire   that may  follow  a  static  discharge  from clothes may be. ·  Do  not  enter  a  flammable  atmosphere  right  after removing  a  garment.    Wait  at  least  10  minutes before     carrying     the     garment     into     such     an atmosphere. 3-13
