Name, caution, and instruction plates should be easy to read: If they are dirty or corroded, clean them, and coat them with lacquer. See TM 43-0139 for instructions. Perform all lubrication in accordance with LO9-2350-261-12, LO9-2350-259-12, and LO 9-2350-300-13. If something doesn’t work, troubleshoot it using the troubleshooting procedures beginning on page 3-1 of this manual. Do the semiannual PMCS every 1500 miles (2400 km) of operation or no later than 6 months after the last semiannual PMCS. Always do your PMCS in the same order so it gets to be a habit.
