degrees.
4.
Install fuze hand-tight in the warhead.
5.
Verify there is no gap between the fuze and
warhead or warhead and motor.

CAUTION
When installing Mk 34 and Mk 63
warheads, use the chain wrench only in the
area indicated by the decal. This prevents
damage to the warhead.
NOTE: A groove may be cut in one nylon
insert only of the practice warheads Mk 6 Mod
