TM 10-5430-243-12&P 0010 000010 00-1 Change 1 – 28 April 2002 OPERATOR AND UNIT MAINTENANCE MANUAL (INCLUDING REPAIR PARTS AND SPECIAL TOOLS LIST) TANK, FABRIC, COLLAPSIBLE, WATER STORAGE, 20,000 AND 50,000 GALLONS OPERATOR PMCS PROCEDURESINTRODUCTION General Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) are performed to keep the collapsible fabric water tank assembly in operating condition. The checks are used to find, correct or report problems. Perform PMCS each time the tank assembly is serviced. Using the PCMS table, always do PMCS in the same order so that it gets to be a habit. With practice, problems can easily be detected. Pay careful attention to WARNING and CAUTION statements. A WARNING means someone could be hurt. A CAUTION means equipment could be damaged. Before using the tank assembly, do “Before” PMCS. During tank assembly use, do “During” PMCS. After the tank assembly is used, do “After” PMCS. Do “Weekly” PMCS once a week. Do “Semi-annually” PMCS once every six months. If something is found to be wrong when performing PMCS, fix it if possible, using troubleshooting procedures and/or maintenance procedures. Use DA Form 2404 (Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Worksheet) to record any faults discovered before, during, or after operation, unless the faults can be fixed. It is not required to record faults that you can fix. For further information on how to use DA Form 2404, see DA PAM 738-750. If tools that are required to perform PMCS are not listed in Table 2, WP 0033 00, of the Maintenance Allocation Chart, notify Unit Maintenance. PMCS Procedures Your Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services, Table 1, lists the inspections and care required to keep the water tank assembly in good operating condition. The “Interval” column of Table 1 indicates when to perform a certain check or service. The “Procedure” column of Table 1 tells you how to perform the required checks and services. Carefully follow these instructions. When the procedure tells you to, notify your supervisor. The “Equipment Not Ready/Available If” column of Table 1 explains when and why the equipment cannot be used.
