Section III. LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS

2-5.1. OPERATOR LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS.

INTERVALS AND MAN-HOURS

Intervals (on-condition or hard time) and the related man-hours are based on normal operation. The man-hour

time specified is the time you need to do the services prescribed for a particular interval. On-condition (OC) oil

sample intervals shall be applied unless changed by the Army Oil Analysis Program (AOAP) laboratory. Change

the hard time interval if your lubricants are contaminated or if you are operating the equipment under adverse

operating conditions, including longer-than-usual operating hours. The hard time interval may be extended during

periods of low activity. If extended, adequate preservation precautions must be taken. Hard time intervals will be

applied in the event AOAP laboratory support is not available.

WARNING

Death or serious injury could result from repeated or prolonged breathing or skin contact of

drycleaning solvent SD, type II, P-D-680. Use in well-ventilated area. Do not use near open

flame or in excessive heat.

Clean fittings before lubricating. Clean parts with drycleaning solvent (item 14, App. D) or equivalent. Dry before

lubricating.

NOTE

Dotted arrow points indicate lubrication on both sides of the equipment.
