INSPECT.

After operating TFPE, visually inspect the TFPE components during disassembly for repackag-

ing.

CLEAN.

Clean the TFPE using a suitable brush or soap and water if needed, or wipe clean with a cloth.

Air drying or wiping dry with a cloth is sufficient.

TOUCH-UP

Touch-up or repaint the auger as necessary using olive drab or black paint.

REPAIR.

Any cut in the TFPE inert primaline or inert shock tube may be repaired using a cloth adhesive

tape. Wind the tape around the cut at least one turn.

REPLACE.

Replace the M9 as needed. Replace the sandbag with any sandbag in the Army inventory. If

the available sandbag is longer than the original sandbag, fill the longer sandbag with sand to

appropriate length and tighten the sandbag.
