OPERATOR PMCS PROCEDURES

INTRODUCTION

General

Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) are performed to keep the collapsible fabric fuel

tank assembly in operating condition. The checks are used to find, correct, or report problems. Be sure

to perform PMCS each time the tank assembly is serviced. Using the PMCS table, always do PMCS in

the same order, so it gets to be a habit. With practice, problems can be easily detected. Pay attention to

WARNING and CAUTION statements. A WARNING means someone could be hurt. A CAUTION means

equipment could be damaged.

Before using the tank assembly, do "Before" PMCS.

During use, do "During" PMCS.

After the tank assembly is used, do "After" PMCS.

Do "Semi-Annual" PMCS once every six months.

If something is found to be wrong when performing PMCS, fix it if possible, using troubleshooting

procedures and/or maintenance procedures.

Use DA Form 2404 (Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Worksheet) to record any faults discovered

before, during, or after operation, unless the faults can be fixed. It is not required to record faults that can

be fixed. For further information on how to use this form, see DA PAM 738-750.

If tools required to perform PMCS are not listed in Table 2, WP 0033 00, the Maintenance Allocation

Chart, notify Unit Maintenance.
