In general, filter holders may be installed

the evening before shot time, but if delay
seems probable or weather is very rainy,

holders should be installed at last convenient
moment. Caution: Moisture greatly weakens
the filter material, Before installation of
holder, filter unit should have been thoroughly
decontaminated, rinsed with pure water, and
dried, After being cleaned, it should be kept
clean by use of plastic cover or tape covering
inlet hole and exit slot. Cover should be
kept on after holder has been installed to
prevent contamination until just before take-off
when airplane is in take-off position, Caution:
Pilots should avoid taking-off in jet blast or

exhaust of preceding aircraft.

Holder is inserted

with 1/h inch mesh positioned to the aft side of

slot in unit. Care mst be taken to insure that
filter material does not move down from supporting
frame edge because filter failure will result,
Holder should be inspected through exit slot for
such movement of paper. After insertion, holder
is fastened with safety wire across slot in the

case of the F-8)G airplane or by closing stress
latches on the B-S7B unit.

Caution:

Do not

pinch or cut wire on F-8L,G unit or it may fail

and filter holder may fall out o landing roll,

Caution: Stress latches on B-57B unit must be
carefully adjusted or they may open on take-off
or landing and holder may fall out, If filter

unit is flown at high speeds with latches open
structural failure may result,
