B-3. EXPLANATION OF COLUMNS IN THE MAC, SECTION II
a.
Column 1. Group Number. Column 1 lists functional group code numbers, the
purpose of which is to identify components, assemblies, subassemblies, and modules with the
next higher assembly.
b.
Column 2. Component/Assembly. Column 2 contains the names of components,
assemblies, subassemblies, and modules for which maintenance is authorized.
Column 3. Maintenance Function. Column 3 lists the functions to be performed on
c.
the item listed in Column 2. (For detailed explanation of these functions, see paragraph B-2.)
d.
Column 4. Maintenance Category. Column 4 specifies, by the listing of a work time
figure in the appropriate subcolumn(s), the lowest level of maintenance authorized to perform
the function listed in Column 3. This figure represents the active time required to perform that
maintenance function at the indicated category of maintenance. If the number or complexity of
the tasks within the listed maintenance function vary at different maintenance categories,
appropriate work time figure will be shown for each category. The work time figure represents
the average time required to restore an item (assembly, subassembly, component, module, end
item, or system) to a serviceable condition under typical field operating conditions. This time
includes preparation time, troubleshooting time, and quality assurance/quality control time in
addition to the time required to perform the specific tasks identified for the maintenance
functions authorized in the maintenance allocation chart. The symbol designations for the
various maintenance categories are as follows:
c
Operator or crew.
o
Organizational maintenance.
F
Direct support maintenance.
H
General support maintenance.
D
Depot maintenance.
Column 5. Tools and Equipment. Column 5 specifies by code those common tool sets
(not individual tools) and special tools, TMDE, and support equipment required to perform the
