HOW TO USE THE REPAIR PARTS AND SPECIAL TOOLS LIST (RPSTL) WITH THIS MANUAL
The RPSTL (TM 9-2350-277-24P) 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
