INTRODUCTION
PMCS are performed to keep the TQG in operating condition. Inspect the TQG within specified intervals so defects
are found and corrected or problems are reported before any serious damage or failure occurs. Do the PMCS per
WP 0016, Table 1. Pay attention to WARNINGs and CAUTIONs. A WARNING means someone might be killed or
injured. A CAUTION means equipment could be damaged.
CAUTION
Designated intervals are performed under usual operating conditions. PMCS intervals must be
performed more frequently when operating under unusual conditions to prevent premature engine
failure.
1. Always perform preventive maintenance in the same order so it gets to be a habit. Once you have had some
practice, you will spot anything wrong in a hurry.
2. Tools included with the TQG are to be used when doing the PMCS. Wiping rags are needed to remove dirt or
grease.
3. If you find something wrong when performing the PMCS, fix it if you can, using troubleshooting procedures
(see WP 0004 thru WP 0011) and/or maintenance procedures (see Chapter 3).
4. Item numbers in column 1 of WP 0016, PMCS Table 1 indicate the PMCS sequence. Use these item
numbers for the TM number column on DA Form 5988-E.
5. Information in column 6 of WP 0016, Table 1 lists conditions that make the TQG not ready/available. Write up
items not repaired on DA Form 5988-E for DS maintenance. For further information on how to use these
forms, see DA PAM 750-8.
6. Ensure all Operator PMCS has been performed (TM 9-6115-729-10).
