(3) A 2-pound charge on the aftercooler.
(4) A 1/2-pound charge between the starting motor and the engine block.
(5) A 1/2-pound charge between the battery charging generator and the engine block.
b. Demolition by Mechanical Means. Use sledge hammers, crowbars, picks, axes, or any other heavy tools which
may be available, together with the tools normally included with the air compressor, to destroy the following:
(1) The air compressor instrument panel.
(2) The compressor valves and engine valve rocker arm assemblies.
NOTE
The above steps are the minimum requirement for this method.
(3) The distributor and governor.
(4) The storage batteries.
(5) The radiator.
(6) The fire extinguisher.
240. Other Demolition Methods
If the situation prevents employing either of the preferred methods, use the following, either singly or in combination.
a. Demolition by Weapons Fire. Fire on the air compressor with the heaviest weapons available. Direct the fire
toward both sides of the equipment.
b. Demolition by Scattering and Concealing. Remove all easily accessible vital parts such as the spark plugs, fuel
pump, and starter motor and battery charging generator brushes. Scatter these parts through dense foliage, bury them in
dirt or sand, or throw them into a lake, stream, or other body of water.
c. Demolition by Burning. Pack rags, clothing, or canvas under and around the equipment. Saturate this packing
with gasoline, diesel fuel, or some other inflammable liquid, and ignite it.
d. Demolition by Submersion. Totally submerge the unit in a body of water to provide some water damage and
concealment. Salt water will do the greatest damage to metal parts.
e. Demolition by Misuse. Perform the first step listed below to put the governor out of action and the remaining steps
to make the air compressor inoperative.
(1) Remove the slowdown assembly and break the linkage between the governor and carburetor.
(2) Drain radiator and crankcase.
