TM  1-1520-240-10            4-2-5 single cartridges or short bursts can be fired. The trigger must be completely released for each shot to fire single cartridges or to interrupt firing. When the ammunition is exhausted, the last link will remain in the cartridge tray. Remove the link and the end plug by hand after the cover is opened for loading. CAUTION Do not fire the M24 machine guns unless the  ejection  control  bags  are  installed. Failure to install the bags before firing the machine guns could cause the brass and links to be ejected overboard and ingested into the engines if engine screens are re- moved. CAUTION The M24 machine guns are not to be fired unless the RRPM is at minimum beep or higher. 3.   After Firing Operation. a.   Ensure the bolt is locked to the rear and the weapon is placed on safe. Open the feed tray cover and remove any rounds, links or end plug. Point the weapon sys- tem in a safe direction. Close the feed tray cover. Place the weapon in FIRE and ride bolt forward. b.   Retract the bolt by pulling the handle fully  rearward  until  the  sear  engages and  then  push  the  handle  to  forward position. Move the cover latch rearward to the horizontal position and then raise the   cover.   Remove   the   linked   car- tridges. c.   Inspect  the  chamber  to  be  sure  it  is clear. d.   Close  the  cover  and  secure  the  ma- chine gun in stowed position.
