SECTION II. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS
AND SERVICES (PMCS)
2.2 GENERAL.
Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) means systematic caring, inspecting and servicing of equipment to keep it
in good condition and to prevent breakdowns. As Tricon container operator, your mission is to:
a. Be sure to perform your PMCS each time you operate the container. Always do your PMCS in the same order so it gets to
be a habit. Once you have had some practice, you will quickly spot anything wrong.
b. Do your BEF ORE (B) PMCS just before you operate the container. Pay attention to WARNINGs, CAUTIONs and
NOTEs.
c. Use DA Form 2404 (Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Worksheet) to record any faults that you discover before,
during, or after operation, unless you can fix them. You DO NOT need to record faults that you fix.
d. Perform any other services when required by organizational maintenance.
2.3 PMCS PROCEDURES.
2.3.1 Your Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services, Table 2-1, lists inspections and care required to keep the container in
good operating condition. It is set up so you can make your BEFORE (B) OPERATION checks as you walk around the container.
2.3.2 The Interval column of table 2-1 tells you when to do a certain check or service.
2.3.3 The Procedure column of table 2-1 tells you how to do required checks and services. Carefully follow these instructions.
NOTE
Terms "ready/available" and "mission capable" refer to same status: Equipment is on hand and ready to perform
its combat missions. (See DA PAM 738-750.)
2.3.4 The Equipment Is Not Ready/Available column in table 2-1 tells you when your container is not mission capable and why
the container cannot be used.
2.3.5 If the container does not perform as required, refer to Chapter 3, Section II, Troubleshooting.
2.3.6 If anything looks wrong and you cannot fix it, write it on your DA Form 2404 and immediately report it to your supervisor.
