4-6. GENERAL.
To ensure that the Petroleum Laboratory is ready for operation at all times, it must be inspected within designated
intervals so that defects may be discovered and corrected before they result in serious damage or failure. Table 4-1
contains a tabulated listing of preventive maintenance checks and services to be performed by unit maintenance
personnel. All deficiencies and shortcomings will be recorded as well as the corrective action taken on DA Form 2404 at
the earliest possible opportunity.
4-7. UNIT PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS AND SERVICES.
a.
The item numbers of Table 4-1 indicate the sequence of the PMCS. Perform at the intervals shown below:
(1) Do your (Q) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE once each 3 months.
(2) Do your (S) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE once each 6 months.
(3) Do your (A) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE once each year.
(4) Do your (B) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE once each 2 years.
(5) Do your (H) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE at the hour interval listed.
b.
If something doesn't work, troubleshoot it with the instructions in this manual or notify your supervisor.
c.
Always do your preventive maintenance in the same order, so it gets to be a habit. Once you've had some
practice, you'll spot anything wrong in a hurry.
d.
If anything looks wrong and you can't fix it, write it down on your DA Form 2404. If you find something
seriously wrong, report it to direct support as soon as possible.
(1)
Keep it clean: Dirt, grease, oil and debris only get in the way and may cover up a serious problem.
Clean as you work and as needed. Use soap and water when you clean rubber or plastic material.
