HEMTT-LHS (M1120) PMCS — COMMON QUESTIONS

What TM covers HEMTT-LHS PMCS?
HEMTT-LHS (M1120) PMCS is covered by TM 9-2320-279-10, the same operator's manual used for all HEMTT variants. The LHS (Load Handling System) adds specific checks for the hydraulic flatrack loading system. ArmyADP.com's HEMTT-LHS PMCS app is built from TM 9-2320-279-10.
What are NFMC faults on a HEMTT-LHS?
NFMC faults on the HEMTT-LHS include all standard HEMTT brake and steering faults, plus LHS-specific faults such as hydraulic system leaks, damaged flatrack hooks or locking mechanisms, and any fault that makes the load handling system unsafe to operate. All NFMC faults deadline the vehicle.
What is the HEMTT-LHS used for?
The HEMTT-LHS (M1120) is the Load Handling System variant of the HEMTT. It uses a hydraulic hook-arm system to load, transport, and unload standardized flatracks and containers without a crane or forklift. It is widely used in logistics and sustainment operations for rapid cargo transfer.
How do I fill out a DA Form 5988 for a HEMTT-LHS?
