The chassis has two axles and four fixed wheels with solid rubber tires. Two tubular handles, which may be installed at either end of the dolly to facilitate maneuvering, have brake actuating levers at the handle grips. Quick-release pins secure the handle assemblies to the chassis. The brakes, being the "dead-man" type, lock all four wheels when the actuating levers are released. Four adjustable rubber rollers mounted on the support serve as load-bearing surfaces. Quick-release pins lock the roller supports at the desired loading position. The load is secured on the dolly with an adjustable hold down strap. Handling Dolly Mk 24 Mod 1 is used for transporting lightweight torpedoes 12.75 inches in diameter or for transporting Countermeasures Anti-Torpedoes (CAT)/AII-Up Round Equipment (AURE) aboard combatant ships. The small size for stowage and wheelbarrow style steering make this a required handing device for torpedoes on small combatant ships.
