TM 5-3825-220-13&P 6-4.19  General Maintenance Work a. Pipe Threads A number of fittings and equipment items have small diameter threaded pipe connections. All pipe threads are subject to damage from galling or mishandling.  If a thread, male or female, is damaged only lightly, it can be repaired by merely chasing  the  thread  with  the  proper  size  pipe  thread  die  or  tap.    Badly  damaged  threaded  nipples  or  fittings  should  be replaced. b. Grounding Systems Grounding  systems  are  used  extensively  on  all  equipment.    If  the  ground  connection  is  broken,  it  must  be  promptly replaced.    If  the  ground  rod  has  been  broken,  it  should  be  promptly  replaced  with  one  of  the  proper  length.    Broken ground cables must be promptly replaced. c. Roadway, Berms, and Drainage Under some conditions, corrective maintenance may be required to handle repairs to damaged roadways, tank berms, and drainage systems.  Such work should be handled expeditiously due to the fact that these facilities are also required for safe and efficient operations. d. Table   6-1,   entitled   Maintenance   Troubleshooting,   Piping,   Hose,   Valves   and   Fittings,   will   aid   maintenance personnel in relating problems in this area to the cause and the recommended action.  Most maintenance work other than on the major equipment such as the pumps will involve piping, hose, valves and fittings. 6-23
