GENERAL
This work package provides general instructions and basic guidance for performing required maintenance
functions. The maintenance functions described in this work package are limited to those functions authorized by
the Maintenance Allocation Chart (MAC) for Operator level activities. If maintenance is needed on any equipment
or component beyond that authorized at the operator level, notify maintenance.
REMOVAL
CAUTION
Areas around components being removed must be kept as clean as possible to prevent
contamination of internal parts. This is especially true when working with fuel and air
systems or vision devices. Failure to comply may result in damage to equipment.
1.
Study illustrations carefully before removing any item, noting its relationship to other parts. Knowing
relationship details will speed up installation and help avoid mistakes.
2.
Do not use metal tools that will scratch the sealing surfaces next to gaskets, preformed packings, or seals
when removing any items.
3.
Tag critical parts such as shims, bearings, electrical harnesses, and leads during removal to facilitate
installation. This is especially important for electrical equipment if circuit number tags are illegible or missing.
4.
Plug or cover all open ports on fuel, air, and hydraulic components until installed on the vehicle. These items
must be kept thoroughly clean at all times.
5.
Retain all mounting hardware removed for reuse during installation. Notify maintenance to replace items
such as lockwire, lockwashers, self-locking nuts, safety seals, and O-rings, with new parts as soon as
mission permits.
