GENERAL
The trailer must be inspected systematically to ensure that it is ready for operation at all times. Inspection will allow defects
to be discovered and corrected before they result in serious damage or failure. This section contains a tabulated list of
preventive maintenance checks and services. All deficiencies and corrective actions taken will be recorded on DA Form
2404.
Do your (S) PMCS once each 6 months.
Do your (A) PMCS once each year.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
If something doesn't work, troubleshoot it with the instructions in this manual or notify your supervisor.
Always do your PMCS in the same order so it gets to be a habit. Once you've had practice, you will spot something wrong
in a hurry.
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 maintenance as soon as possible.
When you do your preventive maintenance, take along the tools you need to make all the checks. You always need a rag or
two.
