APPENDIX C
Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services
C-1. General
To insure that the compressor is ready for operation at all times, it must be inspected systematically so that defects
may be discovered and corrected before they result in serious damage or failure. The necessary preventive maintenance
checks and services to be performed are listed as described in paragraphs C-2 and C-3. The item numbers indicate the
sequence of minimum inspection requirements. Defects discovered during operation of the unit will be noted for future
corrections, to be made as soon as operation has ceased. Stop operation immediately if a deficiency is noted during
operation which would damage the equipment-if operation were continued. All deficiencies and short-comings will be
recorded together with the corrective action taken on DA Form 2404 at the earliest possible opportunity.
