contains the instructions necessary for a complete overhaul of the engine (overhaul as performed by naval aviation depots). It is used by organizational and intermediate  maintenance  activities. Under  the  NAVAIR  publication  numbering system, the IPB manual is identified by a -4 or a -504 in part III of the publication number. The IPB is divided  into  three  sections-an  introduction,  a group assembly parts list, and a numerical index. The IPB illustrates, lists, and describes all parts and special  SE  necessary  to  maintain  the  particular engine  model. Under  the  TMINS  numbering  system,  there  are three basic types of engine manuals—one each for intermediate  maintenance,  depot  maintenance,  and an IPB. Several other special manuals are available for some engine models, but they usually apply to intermediate  or  depot  maintenance. AERONAUTICAL COMPONENT AND EQUIPMENT MANUALS Aeronautical  component  and  equipment  manuals cover  all  types  of  aircraft  accessory  and  related equipment. Some of the most common types are listed below: 2-27 Accessory (03 series) Instrument (05 series) Armament/Ordnance (11 series) Electronics/Avionics (16 series) Machinery,  Tools  and  Test  Equipment  (17 series) Ground Servicing and Mobile Equipment (19 series) General component and equipment manuals can be  prepared  as  individual  intermediate  or  depot volumes, or as a combination. Occasionally, these manuals include general or specialized organizational data not included in the weapons systems series. However, organizational data appears in the prime weapons  system  manual  whenever  feasible.  Design complexity, data volume, and the maintenance plan or engineering  analysis  determine  the  selection  of content coverage and volume assembly. If the equipment is of a highly complex design with variations in maintenance capability and support materials at different levels, the manuals are normally coded  for  separate  intermediate-  and  depot-level coverage.  However,    when  logistic  support requirements, workload procedures, and basic support equipment  are  similar  at  the  intermediate-  and depot-level, the manuals are coded for a combined intermediate-  and  depot-level  publication. SPECIAL APPLICATION TECHNICAL MANUAL SERIES Technical  manuals  within  this  category  contain operation and maintenance and/or procedures that apply  to  a  variety  of  equipments  associated  with aircraft maintenance. Short descriptions of these types of manuals are contained in the following paragraphs. Aircraft Hardware and Rubber Material (04 Series) The   04   series   manuals   provide   descriptive maintenance  information  on  maintenance consumables, such as aircraft wheels and tires. Electronics, Airfield Lighting and Related Accessories (08 Series) These  manuals  provide  information  and instructions covering the installation, adjustment, operation,  maintenance,  and  IPB  of  airfield  lighting facilities for night operation at temporary or advanced air bases. The 08 series is being combined with the 16 series for electronics equipment. The 08 entry in the NAVSUP 2002 will refer you to the 16 entry. Aviation Life Support Systems (ALSS) Manuals (13 Series) The  13  series  manuals  provide  information  and instructions for operation and maintenance of all personal survival equipment. These manuals include instructions for ejection seats, parachutes, survival equipment,  portable  oxygen  equipment,  and  anti-G and exposure suits. Manuals are provided for each item covering description, special tools, preparation for use,  storage  or  shipment,  operation  instructions, inspection,  maintenance,  lubrication,  troubleshooting, and an IPB. Each manual contains only those portions applicable to that item of equipment. Standard Preservation and Packaging Information (15 Series) The 15 series manuals provide instructions for the initial   preservation   treatment,   procedures   for maintaining preservation, procedures for depreserving
