This section details preventive maintenance checks and services (PMCS) and lubrication procedures required for the M113A3
FOV Carriers at the unit maintenance level. For crew level PMCS, see your -10.
MAINTENANCE FORMS AND RECORDS
The forms and records you fill out have many uses. They are a permanent record of the service, repairs, and changes made to
your vehicle. They also tell you whether faults have been repaired. For information on forms and records, see DA Pamphlet
738-750.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
Always observe the WARNINGS and CAUTIONS appearing in the PMCS tables BEFORE, DURING, and AFTER you
operate the equipment. The WARNINGS and CAUTIONS appear before certain procedures. You must observe these
WARNINGS and CAUTIONS to prevent serious injury to yourself and others or prevent your equipment from being damaged.
PMCS PROCEDURES
(1) Obey all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS when you do PMCS.
(2) 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 43-0319 for instructions.
(3) If something doesn’t work, troubleshoot it using the troubleshooting procedures (WP 0005 00).
(4) Do the semiannual PMCS every 1500 miles (2400 km) of operation or no later than 6 months after the last
semiannual PMCS.
