GENERAL
a.
These general maintenance instructions contain general shop practices and specific methods you must be familiar
with to maintain your semitrailer. You should read and understand these practices and methods before
performing any Unit maintenance tasks.
b.
Before beginning a task, find out how much repair, modification, or replacement is needed to fix the equipment as
described in this manual. Sometimes the reason for equipment failure can be seen right away, and complete
teardown is not necessary. Disassemble equipment only as far as necessary to repair or replace damaged or
broken parts.
c.
The following "Initial Setup" information applies to all procedures:
1.
Resources are not listed unless they apply to the procedure.
2.
Personnel are listed only if more than one technician is required to complete the task. If "Personnel
Required" is not listed, one technician can complete the task.
d.
All tags and forms attached to equipment must be checked to learn the reason for removal from service.
Modification work orders and technical bulletins must also be checked for equipment changes and updates.
e.
In some cases, a part may be damaged by removal. If the part appears to be good and other parts behind it are
not defective, leave it on and continue with the procedure. Here are a few simple rules:
1.
Do not remove dowel pins or studs unless loose, bent, broken, or otherwise damaged.
2.
Do not remove bearings or bushings unless damaged. If you need to remove them to access parts, pull
bearings and bushings out carefully.
3.
Replace all gaskets, seals, lockwashers, cotter pins, and preformed packings.
