If a non-activated battery is installed in a MK-65, where must the stencil be located on the asset?

The stencil indicating the status of a non-activated battery installed in a MK-65 must be placed on the access cover. This placement is crucial for easy visibility and accessibility for personnel who may need to inspect or service the equipment. By locating the stencil on the access cover, it ensures that users are immediately informed of the battery's status before accessing the internal components, which enhances safety and operational readiness. Proper marking helps to prevent potential misuse or mishandling of the battery, thereby maintaining compliance with safety protocols.

In operational settings, ensuring that all indicators and stencils related to equipment status are prominently displayed aids in the effective management of munitions and promotes a culture of safety and awareness within the team.
