The callout for the main gear brakes says to combat a brake fire by approaching the wheels from the front or rear only.

Where is the battery located on the C-130 per this chart?

In a compartment on the left side of the nose, accessed through a door on that compartment.

AI caption July 2004 · Photo 167 of 1941

This is a framed Lockheed reference poster titled 'C-130 Crash Rescue & Fire Fighting.' It is an aircraft emergency-response schematic, not an automotive document. The poster features a large cutaway isometric drawing of a Lockheed C-130 Hercules with color-coded callouts identifying hazardous materials and their locations throughout the airframe — fuel tanks (with C-130A and C-130B variations noted), engine oil, hydraulic fluid, oxygen and liquid oxygen, signal flares, flare storage, and fire bottles. Lettered circles (A–G) mark entry and access points, explained in a left-hand column of numbered instructions covering emergency hatch entry, main gear brakes and brake-fire approach, paratroop door operation, GTC access, the crew entrance door, the nose battery compartment, and engine nacelle access doors. A side-profile inset shows emergency exits, a tear-off panel, and the paratroop door. A top-view 'DANGER AREAS' diagram at upper right highlights propeller arcs and other hazard zones in red, with a small legend. A bottom legend distinguishes normal/emergency exits from danger areas. The poster gives crash-rescue and firefighting crews a quick visual guide to safe approach paths, entry points, and hazardous-material locations on the C-130. Much of the fine print is unreadable in this photograph.
