OPERATING PROCEDURES WARNING You must be in full individual protective ensemble or Mission Oriented Protective Posture, Level 4, (MOPP4) while using this system.

NOTE When you determine that your equipment, vehicle, or crew-served weapons are contaminated with chemical agents, act quickly. Stop breathing, close eyes, don protective mask, and perform Immediate Decontamination to yourself and personal items using the Decontamination Kit, Skin: M291 and Decontamination Kit, Individual Equipment: M295, respectively. Then, decontaminate your equipment, vehicles, or crew-served weapons using the M100 SDS. This kit is intended for Immediate Decontamination of equipment, vehicles, and crew-served weapons. The operator’s wipe down technique is most effective when done within fifteen minutes after personal wipe down. The M100 SDS decontamination kit is to be opened immediately prior to use. 1. Locate and obtain the M100 SDS from the bracket or its storage location. Open the case and place it within easy reach. Remove one decontamination kit from the case. 2. Open the decontamination kit at the tear notches. Remove the applicator mitt and place it inside the case. 3. Hold sorbent pack upright. Gently shake pack to allow sorbent powder to settle to bottom of pack.

4. Open the pack by tearing along the strip at the notch. 5. Place the opened sorbent pack in or against the case so it does not spill over. 6. Recover the applicator mitt and fluff. Place applicator mitt onto your gloved hand. There is an elastic band inside the applicator mitt you may grasp for better control. Pick up the sorbent pack with your free hand, so you can pour the sorbent powder onto the applicator mitt. You may switch the applicator mitt onto either hand if your arm becomes tired. 7. Pour a generous amount of sorbent powder onto palm of the applicator mitt and gently shake. Sorbent powder is caught up by the fibers, but is released when you begin the rubbing action.

0004 00-2

TM 3-4230-236-10

OPERATION UNDER USUAL CONDITIONS - Continued

0004 00

8. Rub sorbent powder onto target areas using primarily the palm side of the mitt. Make sure all target areas are thoroughly contacted with sorbent powder. The more you rub the sorbent powder onto the chemical agent areas, the more effective it is in removing the contamination. Add more sorbent powder to the applicator mitt as required.

CAUTION Optical systems are extremely vulnerable to powders, which might scratch or adversely affect the lenses. Use care when applying the sorbent. Sorbent powder is not designed to be used on sensitive equipment. Use minimal amounts of powder around sensitive equipment areas.

NOTE Sorbent powder may begin to clump in wet conditions. 9. Decontaminate first those critical surface areas that you must touch to operate the equipment, vehicle, or crew-served weapon. Decontaminate the other areas of your equipment, vehicle, or crew-served weapon as your mission allows. Pay particular attention to the areas where contamination occurs.

WARNING The M100 SDS does not permit a reduction in MOPP level. Personnel should remain in MOPP4 until it has been determined safe to do so. 10. The sorbent powder absorbs chemical agents immediately to remove the liquid hazards. Rub the area with sorbent powder until the surface appears dry. The sorbent powder will begin to neutralize the agent. However, you must still be in MOPP IV.

0004 00-3

TM 3-4230-236-10

OPERATION UNDER USUAL CONDITIONS - Continued

0004 00

NOTE The sorbent powder continues to react with the chemical agent. In combat, you can leave any loose powder on your equipment, vehicle and crew-served weapons. When applied, some surfaces may appear shiny or even wet. Surface should be tested with M8 paper after decontamination operations are complete to confirm or deny agent presence. 11. You may pour sorbent powder onto the top and sides of the applicator mitt in order to effectively apply powder into cracks, crevices, corners, etc. 12. If the surface of the applicator mitt becomes caked with sorbent powder, rotate the applicator mitt to get a clean surface. 13. For additional sorbent powder, open the second pack and continue to decontaminate until all the critical surfaces appear free of liquid chemical contamination.

WARNING Sorbent powder left on the vehicles may present inhalation and ocular hazards to unmasked personnel when the vehicle is in motion. In training, excess powder should be dusted off the vehicle in accordance with local environmental regulations and SOP. The M100 SDS can NOT be decontaminated. Therefore, once exposed to chemical agents, the M100 SDS must be discarded before reducing MOPP level.

14. Decontaminate your protective gloves and boots by rubbing a handful of sorbent powder onto them. 15. Upon completion of the decontamination process dispose of the ENTIRE M100 SDS.
