M1 Procedure Guides are research products developed to aid M1 Tank crewmen in performance of procedural tasks required to prepare the tank for operations and to power down crew stations after operations. The Procedure Guides are designed to supplement the User's Technical Manual (TM). The Procedure Guides have advantages over the TM for day-to-day operational use in that there is one guide for each crew position: Tank Commander, Gunner, Driver, and Loader. Each guide has only tasks specific to the position. Each guide is therefore less bulky, easier to access, and more available than the TM. The Procedure Guides follow the TM to the extent possible. They use flow-char-like symbols to identify procedural steps where decisions have to be made or recursive operations begin. The M1 Procedure Guides will be distributed to tank crews in plastic binders that will protect each page from the dirt and grease of the armor work environment. (Author)
