personnel. This section contains systematic instructions on inspections, adjustments, and corrections to
be performed by the operator/crew.
While performing Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS), read and follow all safety
instructions in the warning summary at the front of this manual. Keep in mind all warnings and cautions
throughout PMCS.

REPORTING REPAIRS
All defects that the operator cannot fix must be reported on a DA Form 2404, Equipment Inspection and
Maintenance Worksheet, immediately after completing PMCS. If a serious problem is found,
IMMEDIATELY report it to your supervisor. Remember, record any corrective action taken.
