Intervals (on-condition or hard time) and the
related man-hour times are based on normal
operation. The man-hour time specified is the
time you need to do all the services pre-
scribed for a particular interval. Hard time
intervals will be indicated by one of the
following symbols as appropriate: Daily (D),
Weekly (W), Monthly (M), Semiannually (S),
and Annually (A). On-Condition (OC) oil sam-
ple intervals shall be applied unless changed
by the Army Oil Analysis Program (AOAP)
laboratory. Change the hard time interval if
your lubricants are contaminated or if you are
operating the equipment under adverse oper-
ating conditions, including longer-than-usual
operating hours. The hard time interval may
be extended during periods of low activity. If
extended, adequate preservation precautions
must be taken. Hard time intervals will be
applied in the event AOAP laboratory sup-
port is not available. Clean fittings before
lubricating. Clean parts with dry cleaning
solvent P-D-680. Dry before lubricating. Dot-
ted arrow points indicate lubrication on both
sides of the equipment.
