Keeping up with a bunch of different L's caN be a headache. Then, too, WhEN
you s±Art pulling services toge±her² some symBls may cover more than others³
So PAra 3-3c(3) of TM 38´750 sAys you can adoµt subsymbols if you Need 'em³
¶hose su·sym·ols are useD
with
the
regUlar symbol, Not instead of it³
¶he ¸O usually codes the intervals
between lubes¹ You cAn make up your
own su·symbols for ¸'s or adopt the
ones the ¸O uses³ º lubE pulled Every
1,000 miles or monthly can be anL»² a
¼²000´mile or 3½month lube bEcomes
aN ¸

² And so on³
Set up a system that suits you and
makes sense ±o your mechaNics³ Then
cover it in your SOP or the Remarks
¾¿ock of the
DD
Form À14Áif there's
roÂm!
If the ¸O cAlls for lubes by miles or
hours only² you may not
b
able to
scheDule them in AdvAnce³ Ãnless you
haVe A gooD feel (experience mostlyÄ)
for when those miles or hours will be
up² you'll haVe to wAit until the miles
or hours ro¿l around befÅre you put the
seÆvice sym·o¿ in a dAte blocdz

The
DD
Form 1970 or other record of miles or hoUrs is yoUr key hereÉ
Remind your operators, mechaNics, TºMMS clerk aNÊ ÊisµatchEr to keeµ aN
Eye on the gear's usage³ Ëhen it reachEs those milEs/hoUrs, pull the servic̳
ThEn ink in the symbols and the miles/hours ÍN thE date block of thE
DD
Form 314³
Use a pencil wheN you
Schedule services .±±
HolD oneÄ ¶herE's a twist for equipment uNder the ºOºP³ You still schEdulE
and pull lubes the way your ¸O says³ ¾ut Îou chaNGe the oil aNd the oil filter oNly

When SeRvices ARe Due
Just as you use theжM and ¸O to schedule yoUr services, make sure you UsE
them when you pull those services³ ¾oth pubs tell you what to check or lUbe,
how anÑ where³ ¶hey give you a list of the tools and materials you NEeÊ, parts
aNd suÒplies you'll useÓ
¾ut there's more! Check the records on the gear³ Other forms tell you about
any Deferred maintenAnce or clUe you iN oN µossible trouble spots³
The date you mark in peNcil for A service is whEN the sErvice is dUe³ ¾ut
sometimes you just can't pull a service oN thE eXact day or miles/hours³
So you get 10 percen± leewayÈof the miles or hoUrs or days between
serVices³ For a semiannual, tÔat meaNs you have aN eXtra À6 days in which to
pul¿ A service: 18 Êas before or 18 days after the schedUled date³
