ORGANIZATIONAL
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS AND SERVICES (PMCS)
GENERAL
To make sure that your vehicle is ready for operation at all times, inspect it
systematically so you can discover any defects and have them corrected before
they result in serious damage or failure.
The charts on the next few pages
contain your unit PMCS.
The item numbers indicate the sequence of minimum
inspection requirements.
If you're operating the vehicle and notice something
wrong which could damage the equipment if you continue operation, stop opera-
tion immediately.
Record all deficiencies and shortcomings, along with the corrective action taken,
on a DA Form 2404.
The Item Number column is the source for the numbers used
on the TM Number column on DA Form 2404.
