CONTAINERIZED KITCHEN (CK)

APPENDIX A - TRAILER OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION
The CK can be transported and deployed either mounted on, or separate from, its trailer
(Chassis, Containerized Kitchen Trailer: 7½ Ton, 4-wheel XCK2000, NSN 2330-01-471-7006).
The procedures for setting up, operating, and packing out the CK in either configuration are
found in WP 0006 00.
removing it from, the trailer. Refer to TM 9-2330-328-14&P for information about the trailer.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The CK container (Figure 1) is an 8-ft by 8-ft by 20-ft (2.44-m by 2.44-m by 6.1-m) International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) container. The packed-out CK weighs approximately
14,080 lbs (6342 kg). It will normally be lifted using a Rough Terrain Container/Cargo Handler
(RTCH) or a crane. Slots in the bottom edge of the container also allow it to be lifted using a
fork lift with a capacity of at least 18,000 lbs (8172 kg). Since the container's center of gravity
is not in the middle (the end with the double doors is heavier than the other end), only the outer
pair of slots should be used to ensure stability when using a fork lift.
