HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL (cont)
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Cleaning, inspecting, checking for leaks, and similar procedures which apply to most procedures are found in Chapter 3,
GENERAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES. Use these steps to clean and inspect any part being removed, repaired, or
installed. Special cleaning will be covered in the procedure step. Below is a step that would require general cleaning.
5. Remove gasket (2) from upper tube flange (1). Discard gasket.
After performing this step, you would clean the mating surface with cleaning compound and a wiping rag according to the
general cleaning procedures. In other procedures, hoses or rubber hatch seals will need to be checked for leaks. Refer to
Chapter 3 for general procedures.
HOW TO USE THE REPAIR PARTS AND SPECIAL TOOLS LIST (RPSTL) WITH THIS MANUAL
The RPSTL (TM 9-2350-261-24P) gives the National Stock Number (NSN) required to order parts used in the maintenance
procedure. To use the RPSTL to identify and order a part, do the following:
1.
In this manual, turn to the first page of the procedure to be performed.
2.
Find Materials/Parts under INITIAL SETUP and read the part(s) that need replacement. If required, find the illustrated
part in the procedure steps.
3.
Go to the RPSTL and find the same illustrated part. That part will have an item number assigned to it. Look this item
number up in the listing for that figure. Use the figure and item number index to find the NSN.
4.
If you inspect an item and find that it is damaged, go to the RPSTL and find the SMR code for the item. If the SMR code
does not authorize you to repair the item, reassemble it and send it to the authorized level of maintenance.
5.
The usable on code in the RPSTL appears in the lower left corner of the Description column heading. Usable
on codes are shown as “UOC.
..” in the Description column (justified left) on the first line following the item
description/nomenclature. Uncoded items are applicable to all models. Identification of the usable on codes in the
RPSTL are:
