Safety…
The improvised Explosive
Device Effects Simulator (IEDES) is a powerful
training tool.
gratias, brutus cautionus, but
I need not fear the Iedes.
for verily, I heed all the safety warnings in
here.
bewarethe Iedes!
ancient rome…
IEDES was specially
designed to train Soldiers how to defeat
explosive devices.
However, setting up, handling or breaking down the device
without following procedures in the operator’s manual or using the included safety
gear is dangerous!
All four “SAFE/ARM” wheels arecolor-coded with GREEN side for “SAFE”
and RED side for “ARMED”.When PSSD is in “SAFE” mode,
all 4 wheels should be turned with GREEN indicators facing out
When PSSD is in “ARMED” mode,all 4 wheels should have RED warning
indicators facing out
