TM 9-2350-267-10 Section  Il.  PREVENTIVE  MAINTENANCE  CHECKS  AND  SERVICES (PMCS) The purpose of PMCS is to discover and correct any defects before serious damage or failure occurs. Performing the PMCS, as outlined on the following pages, will help you keep a well-maintained and properly functioning vehicle. Always perform the PMCS in the same sequence each time; by doing so, you will develop habits which will help you to spot trouble  quickly. The  PMCS  are  divided  into  two  sections: DAILY- items which require checks or services each day the vehicle is oper- ated. Required daily checks for each item shall be performed before (B) op- eration,  during  (D)  operation  or  after(A)  operation,  according  to  the  location of a dot in the “Interval” column. WEEKLY/MONTHLY  -  items  that  require  periodic  checks  or  services  on  a weekly or monthly basis. Each check listed in this section will be performed weekly (W) or monthly (M), according to the location of a dot in the “Interval” column. Perform  WEEKLY  (W)  checks  as  well  as  DAILY  (D)  checks,  if: You are the assigned operator and have not operated the item since the last weekly  check. The crew member responsible for each check is keyed into the “Done By” column. Check and/or service each item according to the procedures listed in the “Item To Be Inspected/ Procedure”column. Report the vehicle not ready if the status described  in the “Equipment is  Not  Ready/Available  If”  column  exists.  Personnel  will  be  denied  use  of  “not  ready” equipment  until  corrective  maintenance  is  completed. Always keep the CAUTIONS and WARNINGS in mind as you do PMCS. Take along all tools needed and a rag or two to make the checks. To  maximize  the  effectiveness  of  the  PMCS,  always  watch  for  the  following  conditions: GREASE AND DIRT. Keep your vehicle clean. Dirt, grease, oil and other de- bris may hide a serious problem and will shorten the life of your equipment. Clean as you work. Use dry-cleaning solvent (item 13, Appx D) on all metal surfaces. Use soap and water when you clean rubber or plastic materials. 2-25
