TM 10-3930-671 -10 c. Operation In Extreme Dust or Sand. NOTE The  truck  normally  operates  in  non-dusty  conditions  and  PMCS  instructions  are  designed  to handle  these  conditions.    However,  in  deserts,  dust  conditions  are  more  extreme  and  certain checks and services must be made more often than normal. (1)   Check air filter restriction indicator more often than normal to ensure air cleaner is not becoming clogged.
