Clean fittings with cleaning compound. Dry before lubricating. Check/lubricate all oil and grease fitting points after washing or fording. AOAP is an effective maintenance diagnostic tool and not a maintenance substitute. TB 43-106 and TM 9-2300-422-23&P must not be interpreted to mean that AOAP minimizes in any way the need to employ good maintenance practices and strong maintenance discipline.

If the equipment has not been operated within the last 30 days, these requisites apply to both routine and special sampling.
