SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
BEFORE OPERATION
Do not smoke or use open flame in the area when servicing the batteries. Batteries generate hydrogen, a highly
explosive gas.
Keep metal decks free from grease, oil, and mud, to avoid possible injury.
When handling gasoline always provide a good metal-to-metal contact between fuel tank and container.
DURING OPERATION
When water is being pumped through the discharge system, at least two men should control the hose at the nozzle to
prevent the hose from whipping and causing serious injury.
Stop all operation before performing service adjustments.
Use of a nozzle too small for the pressure can rupture the hose.
AFTER OPERATION
When handling gasoline always provide a good metal-to-metal contact between fuel tank and container.
Do not remove radiator cap from a hot engine until engine has been shut down for 5 minutes to relieve pressure and
avoid being burned.

WINTERIZATION
Section I. GENERAL
145. Scope
a.
This supplement is published to provide
operating and maintenance instructions for the
winterization kit supplied with the Ward LaFrance Model
M44A2WLF Fire Truck.
b. The winterization kit is designed to provide heat
to maintain equipment and components at an operable
temperature and prevent fluid in the components and
water tank from freezing when ambient temperature
range is from +20°F to -65°F.
Section II. DESCRIPTION
146. Description
The winterization kit consists of four separate
components which can be operated independently: an
engine radiator shutter mechanism (fig. 71.1) which can
be adjusted to restrict the amount of air flowing through
the engine radiator; a liquid heating unit (fig. 71.2)
which heats and circulates liquid through the engine,
engine crankcase, battery compartment, personnel
heater, water tank, and foam tank; a space heater (fig.
71.3) which heats and circulates air through the pump
compartment, hose reel compartment, and equipment
compartments; and an auxiliary motor-generator set (fig.
71.4) which enables the winterization kit to be operated
with the fire truck engine at rest.
147. Engine Radiator Shutters
(fig. 71.1).
The engine radiator shutter assembly is mounted
directly in front of the engine radiator. A control cable
connects the control knob,

M.2, or M.3 fuel oil or JP-4 fuel as a combustible. The
electrical requirement is 24 volts-direct current (dc).
Refer to figure 71.5 for specifications.
150. Liquid and Air Systems
a. Liquid Flow System. The liquid flow system
operates in conjunction with the combustion air flow
system to transfer the heat of combustion from the
burner to the liquid to be heated. The combustion
chamber provides passages through which the liquid
flows. The combustion air is circulated around these
passages so that the chamber functions as a heat
exchanger. The liquid is forced into the inlet port at the
side of the combustion chamber by an externally
mounted liquid pump. It leaves the heater through the
fitting at the top of the combustion chamber. The liquid
pump is powered by the electrical circuit of the heater.
b. Combustion Air System. The combustion air
system provides the air to maintain combustion. The air
system consists of a blower motor fan and the
necessary air passages. The air enters the heater
through the larger opening in the heater base, passes
through the combustion air blower shell and into the
burner. The air mixes with the fuel vapor in the burner
and combustion occurs.
The hot, contaminated
combustion air passes through ports at the far end of the
combustion chamber, into the secondary heat
exchanger. During this time, much of its heat is
transferred to the liquid. The air leaves the heater
through the centrally located exhaust opening.
151. Fuel Systems
(fig. 71.6).
The heater fuel system provides a constant flow
of liquid fuel to the burner for combustion, and operates
in conjunction with the heater electrical system. Fuel is
supplied through a fuel pump and filter to the heater,
and reaches the combustion chamber through the
regulator valve and nozzle.
a. Fuel Pump. The fuel pump is electrically
connected to the heater operating circuits and supplies
fuel at low pressure to the regulator valve. The pump is
self-priming, requiring no bleeding or adjustment on first
start.
AGO 5667A
b. Regulator Valve. The regulator valve, mounted
in the control head, consists of two parts-one is a
solenoid-operated shut-off valve and the other is a highlow pressure regulator which varies the pressure of the
fuel being supplied to the nozzle assembly for high- or
low-fire operation.
c. Nozzle Assembly. The nozzle assembly is
contained in a tee, which is connected to the regulator
valve outlet port by an elbow. The nozzle is a thin plate
orifice through which fuel is metered to the burner, and
works with the regulator valve to assure a constant,
smooth metered flow of fuel regardless of the fuel used.
d.
Burner.
The burner is of the modified
vaporizing-pot type with a porous ceramic burner wick
mounted in its base. Fuel enters the burner through the
fuel inlet connection, saturates the wick, and combustion
occurs in the burner throat and the combustion
chamber.
152. Electrical System
(fig. 71.7).
The heater electrical system controls the operations
of the fuel, liquid, and air systems throughout the
complete heater cycle. It also provides safeguards
against electrical and mechanical failures. The remotely
mounted control box assembly controls the circuits from
the power source to the heater and the fuel pump
through a connecting cable assembly.
a. Control Box Assembly.
(1) The control box assembly contains a circuit
breaker, control switch, and indicator lamp.
(2) The circuit breaker protects the system if an
electrical failure occurs. Located in the
power circuit to the system, the circuit
breaker can disconnect the system entirely
when the reset button is pulled out. Never
pull the reset button, however, while the
heater is in operation, since this will
eliminate the heater purging cycle.
(3) The control switch is a double-pole, doublethrow switch with "ON-HI, OFF, ON-LO"
positions. The heater starts operating when
the thermostat calls for heat after the switch
is moved
8
to either ON position. In the ON-LO position
the control switch closes a circuit to the fuel
regulator to reduce fuel flow.
(4) The indicator lamp glows after the heater
reaches
operating
temperature
and
continues to glow until the heater
extinguishes and the combustion chamber
cools. The indicator lamp also provides a
check of the power supply to the heater. A
spring-loaded terminal on the lamp socket
is connected to the circuit breaker, so the
lamp glows when pressed in if the circuit
breaker button is in and power is available.
b. Flame Switch Assembly. The flame switch
assembly is a mechanically operated device which
controls the electrical circuits during heater operation. It
consists of a frame supporting a microswitch and a heatresisting tube encasing a quartz rod. The tube extends
into the combustion chamber and is subjected to the
heat resulting from combustion. The difference in
expansion of the metal tube and the quartz rod when
heated trips the microswitch. The switch automatically
restores itself to the normal position when it cools.
c. Preheater Assembly. The preheater assembly is
an imbedded coil of resistance wire encased in a metal
sheath and mounted within the burner. It is energized
only when the heater is initially started. The preheater
heats the burner in preparation for the incoming fuel for
combustion. This vaporizes the fuel so that it can easily
be ignited.
d. Preheat Relay. The preheat relay is a thermaltype, time-delay relay which delays energizing the power
relay that controls the ignition system, for approximately
one minute until the preheater sufficiently heats the
burner to allow fuel vapor to ignite.
e. Power Relay. The power relay is a coil operated
relay that controls the circuits to the combustion air
blower, ignition system, and the fuel regulator valve
during normal heater operation. The flame switch
supplies energy to the power relay coil through the
preheat relay.
AGO 5667A
f. Non-Fire Relay. The non-fire relay is a thermaltype, time-delay relay which is a safety device
incorporated into the heater electrical system to stop
fuel flow if ignition fails to occur two minutes after the
heater is turned on. The relay heater element is
energized by a circuit through the power relay and the
flame switch in cold position. If the flame switch does
not trip to hot position, the relay will break the circuit to
the fuel regulator valve.
g. Ignition System. The ignition system consists of
a spark plug, ignition coil, condenser, and contact set
similar to automotive systems. The contact set is a
mechanical interrupter, operated by a cam collar on the
combustion air motor shaft, which causes the ignition
coil to energize the spark plug to ignite the fuel vapor.
The spark plug, located in the burner, creates a spark
between its electrode and the ground electrode in the
burner base, causing fuel ignition. The ignition system
is thoroughly shielded for suppression of radio
frequencies.
h. Limit Switch. The overheat limit switch shuts the
heater off by breaking the primary power circuit if the
temperature of the liquid rises beyond a safe limit. The
switch incorporates a manual reset button which must
be pressed to close the circuit again for further heater
operation.
i. Thermostat. The thermostat is an adjustable heat
sensor which is electrically connected to the control box.
When the liquid has attained the preset temperature, the
electric circuit is opened, stopping the heater operation.
The circuit is closed when the liquid temperature is
below the thermostat adjustment allowing the heating
cycle to be completed.
j. Motor Switch. A two position switch permits
operation of the liquid pump without the heating cycle.
When the switch is in the automatic position, the
electrical circuit is connected directly to the liquid heater
system. With the switch in the manual position, the
electrical circuit is disconnected from the liquid heater
system and a circuit is completed to an electrical
source, allowing the pump to circulate fluid.

personnel heater. An electrically operated fan causes
air to flow through the core, where heat is transferred
from the heated liquid, and circulated throughout the
cab. A separate blower diverts warm air from the heater
core, through apertures in the instrument panel, to the
windshield to eliminate and prevent frost and fogging
conditions on the glass.

When the exterior temperature is not sufficiently
cold to warrant use of the liquid heater, the personnel
heater may be used by actuating the circulating pump in

heated by the truck engine to supply the heater core.
153. Battery Compartment Shut-off Valve

system. Each system consists of a blower motor, fan,
and the necessary air passages.
a. Fresh Air System. To circulate fresh air for
heating and distribution to the compartment, the fresh
air fan draws air through the opening at the rear of the
heater. The fresh air passes over and cools the motors,
then passes around the burner unit and through a
passageway between the combustion chamber and the
inner wall of a secondary heat exchanger. It also
passes between the heater outer casing and the outer
wall of the heat exchanger.
b. Combustion Air System. Air for the combustion
chamber enters the heater through the larger opening in
the heater base, passes through the combustion air
blower shell and into the burner. The air mixes with the
fuel vapor in the burner, and combustion occurs.
Contaminated combustion air passes through parts at
the far end of the combustion chamber, into the
secondary heat exchanger, and leaves the heater
through the centrally located exhaust opening.
160. Fuel System
The fuel system for the space heater is identical to
AGO 5667A
the liquid heater system. Refer to paragraph 151 for
details.
161. Electrical System
The space heater is similar to the liquid heater
electrical system described in paragraph 152 with the
exceptions of the pump switch and personnel heater and
defroster switch which are omitted and the variations in
the internal wiring (fig. 71.12 for the wiring diagram).
162. Motor-Generator Set
(fig. 71.13).
A 115 volt ac electric motor coupled to a 24 volt dc
generator provides an electrical source to maintain the
vehicle storage batteries at full charge while operating
the winterization kit with the truck engine at rest.
Facility electrical source to operate the motor is
connected to the vehicle by a 50-foot cable. The
generator is protected from damage caused by
excessive current draw by a 30 amp circuit breaker. A
reverse current relay prevents current draw from the
battery when the electric motor is not operating.

lamp fails to light when depressed, press the
reset button to see if the circuit breaker is
tripped, and repeat the test.
(2) Set the control switch to either ON position.
(When the "ON-LO" setting is used, the heat
output is lower than for high-fire operation.)
(3) Preheating takes place for approximately
one minute, after which time the ignition
cycle starts. After approximately another
minutes, the control box indicator lamp will
glow and the heater will circulate warm
liquid.
163. General
This section of the supplement contains complete
operating instructions for all components of the
winterization kit.
164. Engine Radiator Shutter
a. Pull the control knob (fig. 71.14) outward to
close the shutters, restricting air flow through the
radiator.
b. When the engine temperature gage indicates
approximate operating temperature, push the control
knob in to adjust the shutters in a position which allows
sufficient air flow to maintain the engine operating
temperature.
c. Push the control knob fully in to open the shutter
to maximum aperture.
Note. For one minute after the control
switch is turned on, the heater will
indicate no visible or audible signs of
operation until the preheater element
heats the burner sufficiently to cause
combustion. If the control box indicator
lamp glows 1 1/2 to 2 minutes after
heater was turned on, the heater is
operating properly.

light after three minutes, turn control switch
to OFF position. Check the reset button in
the control box. Wait five minutes; then
restart heater. If the heater still does not
operate properly, shut the unit off and check
for the difficulty, following instructions in
maintenance and repair.
b. Stopping. The heater stops automatically when
the proper temperature is reached. Placing the control
switch in "OFF" position stops heater operation. The
heater will continue to operate, and the indicator lamp
will glow, for approximately two minutes after shutdown.
Caution: Pulling out on the circuit breaker
button on the control box breaks all the electrical
circuits to the heater. Do not attempt to stop heater
operation with the circuit breaker.

heater. If the heater still does not
operate properly, shut the unit off
and check for the difficulty, following
instructions in maintenance and
repair.
b. Stopping. Position the control switch in the OFF
position.
Caution
Do not use the circuit breaker to stop
the heater as the system will not
purge when all circuits are open.
(3) Preheating takes place for approximately
one minute, after which time the ignition
cycle starts, and the combustion blower
operates. After approximately another
minute, the heater will circulate warm air,
and the control box indicator lamp will
glow to indicate that the heater is
operating properly.
Note
For one minute after the control
switch is turned on, the heater will
give no visible or audible signs of
operation until the preheater element
heats the burner sufficiently to cause
combustion.
If the control box
indicator lamp glows 1/2 to 2 minutes
after the heater was turned on, the
heater is operating properly. If the
indicator lamp does not glow, air
may be trapped in the fuel line,
preventing sufficient fuel from
reaching the heater during the timed
ignition cycle.
This may happen
when the heater is started for the
first time after installation or at the
beginning of the heating season. If
the indicator lamp does not light
after three minutes, turn the control
switch to OFF AG0 SW7A position.
Check the reset button in the control
box. Wait five minutes, then restart
Note
When the control switch is in the
OFF position, the heater will
continue to operate through the
purge cycle. The indicator lamp will
glow for approximately two minutes
after shutdown, until the heater
starts to cool.

Within 30 to 60
seconds, the circuit through terminals 6
and 9 should open. Continuity should now
be between terminals 4 and 6. Replace a
faulty relay; do not attempt to adjust or
repair it.
(3) Either relay can operate in either socket.
If the operation of the preheat relay is
suspected, interchange it with the nonfire
relay and operate the heater. If ignition
takes place, the relay originally in the
preheat circuit is defective. If ignition
does not take place, continue testing the
relays and the other circuits.
Ignition Coil Assembly (fig. 71.28).
(1) If ignition troubles occur, inspect the
ignition coil assembly (25) for a corroded
high-tension terminal socket or a crazed
high-tension cable. Test the coil with

22. Operation in Extreme Cold (Below 0°F.)
a. General.
Operation in extreme cold
temperatures creates special problems which require
careful inspection and maintenance. Personnel should
be especially careful not to subject the fire truck to any
sudden shock loads or rough handling which might
strain the equipment and crack or break metal parts. Do
not allow water to spray over the body of the truck or the
compartment doors carefully at slow speeds.
All
controls, linkage, frame mountings, and drive parts must
be carefully inspected for damage. Refer to TM 9-2320235-10 for additional information on operating the fire
truck in extremely cold temperatures.
TAGO 6839A
b.
Lubrication. Be sure to use the correct grade of
lubricant for all points of application. Refer to LO 92320-235-12 and LO 5-4210-205-12 for special cold
weather lubrication instructions.
c.
Hose Nozzles and Hoses. If the hose
nozzles are closed in extremely cold weather, water in
the hoses and nozzles freezes rapidly. Immediately
after pumping, detach the nozzles and drain the hoses.
If possible, dry the hoses before stowing to prevent
freezing.
d.
Pump, Lines. Drain water from pump and
lines and leave drain open until all water is drained then
close drain.

a.
General. Refer to TM 9-2320 235-10 for
additional information on operating the fire truck in
extreme heat. Pumps are not affected by extreme heat,
except for lubrication requirements.
b.
Lubrication. Be sure to use the proper
grade of lubricant for all points of application. Refer to
LO 9-2320-235-12 and LO 5-210-205-12 for special
lubrication. Check the lubricant level frequently.
24. Operation in Sandy or Dusty Areas
a.
Lubrication.
Keep all lubrication points
clean and well lubricated. Lubricate sparingly but more
frequently than under normal conditions. Clean all oily
TAGO 6839A
or greasy surfaces, paying particular attention to the
pump oil fill as it accumulates dust and sand. Service
the air cleaners, breathers, and oil filters more
frequently than under normal conditions (TM 9-2320235-10).
b..
Cooling and Fuel Systems. Service the
radiator, fuel tank, and fuel filter (TM 9-2320-235-10).
c.
Pumps and Hose Reels. Keep the body
compartment doors closed except to perform necessary
operations. Wipe the hose reel drive gears and drive
chains to remove as much grease and oil from the
exposed surfaces as possible. When dusty or sandy
conditions no longer exist, remove the chains and wash
with an approved cleaning solvent,

lubricate, and reinstall. Clean all the machined surfaces
of the pump and control linkages to remove
accumulated dust and sand.
d.
Electrical Systems. Keep the insulation
electrical connections, and all motors free from dust and
sand to prevent wear and short circuits. Cover the siren
when not in use.
25. Operation Under Rainy or Humid Conditions
a.
General. High humidity causes a rusting
and corrosive action to exposed metal surfaces with oil
or grease.
b.
Fuel System.. Keep the fuel tank as full as
possible to eliminate condensation. Clean the fuel line
sediment bowl daily (TM 9-2320-235-10).
c.
Electrical System.
Keep the electrical
system clean an(d dry. Wipe off any excess moisture.
Pay particular attention to electrical connections.
26. Operation in Salt Water Areas
a.
exposed metal is greatly accelerated in salt water areas.
Coat all exposed metal surfaces with an approved
lubricant. When the fire truck has been partly immersed
or sprayed with salt water, wash down with fresh water.
b.
Pumping Salt Water. Do not use salt water
except in case of extreme emergency. At the earliest
opportunity after pumping salt water, flush the tank
piping and fire pump thoroughly with fresh water. After
flushing, drain the water pump.
27. Operation at High Altitude
a.
General. Operation at high altitude presents
special problems due to lower atmospheric pressure and
wide differences in temperature, which occurs during the
day and night. Protect the fire truck at all times from the
lowest anticipated temperature.
b.
Cooling System. Keep the cooling system
clean and filled to the proper level. Inspect frequently
as water evaporates more rapidly at high altitudes.
Keep the radiator clean and engine compartment doors
and radiator shutters open when in operation.

Section VI. RADIO INTERFERENCE SUPPRESSION
51. General Methods Used To Attain Suppression
Essentially, suppression is attained by providing a
low resistance path to ground for stray currents. The
methods used include shielding the ignition and highfrequency wires, grounding the frame with bonding
straps, and using capacitors and resistors. For general
information on radio interference suppression, see TM
11-483.
52. Interference Suppression Components

that are identical. Capacitors must be the same size
and have the same rating as the parts being replaced. It
is essential that a good-metal-to-metal contact is
achieved to maintain proper radio interference
suppression. To correct faulty suppression, substitute
new interference suppression components until the
faulty components are discovered.
Remove the
capacitors and ground straps in the numerical sequence
as illustrated on figure 21.
b. Secondary Suppression Component. Remove
tooth-type lockwashers. If proper suppression is to be
obtained, it is necessary that good metal-to-metal
contact is made by tightening the mounting hardware
employing tooth-type lockwashers.
54.
Testing of Radio Interference Suppression
Components
Test the capacitors for leaks and shorts on a
capacitor tester; replace defective capacitors. If test
equipment is not available and interference is indicated,
isolate the cause of interference by the trial-and-error
method of replacing each capacitor in turn until the
cause of interference is located and eliminated.

Section XIII. PUMPING SYSTEM
121. General
The fire truck pumping system consists of a
centrifugal-type pump, rotary vacuum priming pump,
steady valve, relief valve, water tank, foam, and two
motor driven hose reels. A series of operating valves,
drain valves, and a foam proportion regulator, regulate
operation of the fire pump for pumping water, or a water
and foam combination.
The centrifugal-type pump
develops pressure and capacity, by means of centrifugal
force, and must be primed before it will lift water. The
priming system consists of a rotary vacuum pump
operated by a 24-volt electric motor controlled through a
manual priming valve which actuates a microswitch
controlling the electric motor.
Water pressure is
controlled manually by a throttle knob and is held
automatically by the relief valve. The relief valve is
adjusted to any pump pressure up to 300 psi. The hose
reels are electric motor driven, and actuated by a reel
rewind button, located beneath the hose reel assemblies
on the instrument panel. The heat exchanger is mounted
in the engine compartment, and circulates water through
the engine cooling system from the pumping system to
cool the engine. The primer oil tank is mounted on the
engine cab beneath the right-hand seat. It supplies oil to
the primer pump.
122. Primer Pump
a. Removal.

CHAPTER 4
DEMOLITION OF FIRE TRUCK TO PREVENT ENEMY USE
136. General
138. Demolition by Explosives or Weapons Fire
When capture or abandonment of the fire truck to
an enemy is imminent, the responsible unit commander
must make the decision either to destroy the equipment
or to render it inoperative. Based on this decision,
orders are issued which cover the desired extent of
destruction.
Whatever method of demolition is
employed, it is essential to destroy the same vital parts
of all fire trucks, and all corresponding repair parts.
a.
Explosives. Place as many of the charges
shown on figure 71 as the situation permits and detonate
them simultaneously with a detonating cord and suitable
detonator.
(1)
One 1/2-pound charge between the
generator and cylinder block.
(2)
One 1/2-pound charge between the
starting motor and flywheel housing.
(3)
One 1/2-pound charge between fire
pump and primer pump.
(4)
One 1/2-pound charge on each hose
reel.
(5)
One 1/2-pound charge on water tank.
137. Demolition to Render Equipment Inoperative
a.
Mechanical Means. Use sledge hammers,
crowbars, picks, axes, or other heavy tools that may be
available, together with the tools normally included with
the fire truck, to destroy the following:
(1)
Engine accessories.
(2)
Fuel tank.
(3)
Controls and instruments.
b.
Weapons Fire. Fire on the fire truck with
the heaviest suitable weapons available.
139. Other Demolition Methods
Note. The above steps are minimum
requirements for this method.
b.
Misuse. Perform the following steps to
render the fire truck inoperative.
(1)
Drain the engine crankcase.
(2)
Throw sand, mud, and other foreign substances
into the oil filter openings and engine crankcase.
(3)
Drain the cooling system.
(4)
Cut the drive belts.
(5)
Drain the water pump transmission.
(6)
Drain the primer pump oil tank.
(7)
Throw dirt or sand into the radiator and fuel tank.
a.
Scattering and Concealment. Remove all
easily accessible parts, such as fuel pump, fuel filters,
oil filter, air cleaner, and batteries. Scatter them through
dense foliage, bury them in the ground, or throw them in
a lake, stream, or other body of water.
b.
Burning. Pack rags, clothing, or canvas
around the engine, pump and control panels. Saturate
this packing with gasoline, oil, or diesel fuel and ignite.
c.
Submersion. Totally submerge the fire truck
in a body of water, if possible, to provide some water
damage and concealment. Salt water will do greater
damage to metal parts than fresh water.
(8)
Operate the engine and fire pump at full speed
until failure occurs.
Note. The above steps are minimum
requirements for this method.
TAGO 6839A
140. Training
All operators should receive thorough training in
the destruction of the fire truck (FM 5-25). Simulated
destruction, using all of the methods listed above,
should be included in the operator training, that
demolition operations are usually necessitated by
97
Figure 71. Placement of charges.
Critical situations when time available for carrying out
destruction is limited. For this reason, it is necessary
that operators be thoroughly familiar with all methods of
TAGO 6839A
destruction of equipment, and be able to carry out
demolition instructions without reference to this or any
other manual.

APPENDIX II
MAINTENANCE ALLOCATION
Section I. INTRODUCTION
1. General
i. Overhaul. To restore an item to completely
serviceable condition as prescribed by serviceability
standards developed. This is accomplished through
employment of the technique of "Inspect and Repair
Only as Necessary" (IROAN). Maximum utilization of
diagnostic and test equipment is combined with
minimum disassembly of the item during the overhaul
process.
This appendix contains explanations of all
maintenance and repair functions authorized for the
various levels. Section II contains the maintenance
allocation chart.
2. Maintenance
Maintenance is any action taken to keep materiel in
a serviceable condition or to restore it to serviceability
when it is unserviceable. Maintenance of materiel
includes the following:
3. Explanation of Columns
a. Functional Group. The functional group is a
numerical group set up on a functional basis. The
applicable functional grouping indexes (obtained from
the Mobility Command Functional Grouping Indexes)
are listed on the maintenance allocation chart in the
appropriate numerical sequence.
These indexes
normally are set up in accordance with their function and
proximity to each other. 15. Components and Related
Operation.
This column contains the functional
grouping index heading, subgroup headings, and a brief
description of the part starting with the noun name. It
also designates the operations to be performed such as
service, adjust, inspect, test, replace, repair, and
overhaul.
a. Service. To clean, preserve, and replenish fuel
and lubricants.
b. Adjust.
malfunction.
To regulate periodically to prevent
c. Inspect. To verify serviceability and detect
incipient electrical or mechanical failure by scrutiny.
d. Test. To verify serviceability and detect incipient
electrical or mechanical failure by use of special
equipment such as gages, meters, and the like.
c. Levels of Maintenance. This column contains the
various levels of maintenance by number designation.
An X placed in the appropriate level column and in line
with an indicated maintenance function authorizes that
level to perform the function. The X indicates the lowest
level responsible for performing the function, but does
not necessarily indicate repair parts stockage at that
level. Higher levels are authorized to perform the
indicated functions of lower levels.
e. Replace. To substitute serviceable assemblies,
subassemblies,
and
parts
for
unserviceable
components.
f. Repair. To restore an item to serviceable
condition through correction of a specific failure or
unserviceable condition. This function includes, but is
not limited to, inspecting, cleaning, preserving,
adjusting, replacing, welding, riveting, and straightening.
d.
Remarks.
This column lists specific
maintenance functions, special tools, cross-references,
instructions, and the like pertinent to the operation being
performed.
g. Aline. To adjust two or more components of an
electrical system so that their functions are properly
synchronized.
h. Calibrate. To determine, check, or rectify the
graduation of an instrument, weapon, or weapons
system, or components of a weapons system.

This fine document...
Was brought to you by me:
Liberated Manuals -- free army and government manuals
Why do I do it? I am tired of sleazy CD-ROM sellers, who take publicly
available information, slap “watermarks” and other junk on it, and sell it.
Those masters of search engine manipulation make sure that their sites that
sell free information, come up first in search engines. They did not create it...
They did not even scan it... Why should they get your money? Why are not
letting you give those free manuals to your friends?
I am setting this document FREE. This document was made by the US
Government and is NOT protected by Copyright. Feel free to share,
republish, sell and so on.
I am not asking you for donations, fees or handouts. If you can, please
provide a link to liberatedmanuals.com, so that free manuals come up first in
search engines:
