REPORTING REPAIRS
Report all defects and corrective actions on DA Form 2404 or DA Form 5988-E. If a serious problem is
found, report it to your supervisor.
GENERAL PMCS PROCEDURES
WARNING
Solvents can burn easily, can give off harmful vapors, and are harmful to skin and
clothing. To avoid injury or death, keep away from open fire and use in a well-
ventilated area. If solvent gets on skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap
and water.
Keep equipment clean. Dirt, oil, and debris may cover up a serious problem. Clean as you work and as
needed. Use cleaning compound on all metal surfaces. Use solution of soap and water on rubber, plastic,
and painted surfaces.
While performing PMCS, inspect the following components:
Bolts, Nuts, and Screws. Make sure they are not loose, missing, bent, or broken. Tighten any that are
loose.
Welds. Inspect for gaps where parts are welded together. Report bad welds to your supervisor.
Electrical Wires or Connectors. Inspect for cracked or broken insulation, bare wires, and loose or
broken connectors. Report defects to your supervisor.
Hoses, Lines, and Fittings. Inspect for wear, damage, and leaks. Make sure clamps and fittings are
tight. If leak originates from a loose fitting or connector, tighten it. If not authorized, report it to your
supervisor.
SPECIFIC PMCS PROCEDURES
Operator PMCS procedures are listed in Table 1. Always perform PMCS procedures in the order listed.
Once this becomes a habit, you will spot anything that is not right in a minute. If anything wrong is
discovered through PMCS, perform the appropriate troubleshooting task. If any component or system is
not serviceable, or if the service given does not correct the problem, notify your supervisor.
Before performing PMCS, read all the checks required for the applicable interval and prepare the tools
needed to make all the checks.
The column headings in Table 1 are defined as follows:
Item No. The item number column of your PMCS table is to be used for reference. When completing DA
Form 2404 or DA Form 5988-E, include the item number for the checks /service indicating a fault. Item
numbers also appear in the order that you must do the checks and services for the intervals listed.
