parts involved in the government correction of the defect. The government's Maintenance
0002-6
TM 9-2320-341-10 0002
Allocation Chart (MAC) determines the times. Additionally, the cost of replacement parts
obtained through the Government's supply channels will be determined by the amount
identified in the contractor's current commercial dealer net price or Army Master Data File
(AMDF) price, whichever is less. Furthermore, the owning unit may direct the contractor to
provide the replacement parts that prove to be defective within the warranty period, without
costs to the government, directly to their location or F.O.B., U.S. Port of Embarkation for
OCONUS. The contractor shall furnish replacement parts within 10 working days after
receipt of written claim notification. DO NOT submit warranty claims for reimbursement
where repair labor costs and replacement parts costs combined do not exceed $150.00 for
any one failure.
Disposition. The repair activity shall retain defective supplies for thirty (30) days following
receipt of acknowledgment of warranty claim from WARCO or contractor. If receipt of
acknowledgment is not received, inquiries should be made to your local WARCO. If receipt
of acknowledgment is received but no instructions are forthcoming within thirty (30) days of
receipt, supplies may be disposed.
Invalid Warranty Claims. When supplies are inspected by the contractor and found to be
non-warrantable due to abuse or improper maintenance, or the supplies are found to be
serviceable, the repair activity submitting the claim will be required to make reimbursement
for contractor services. All failed items returned for warranty claim action will be monitored
by the WARCO. Additionally, regarding contractor repair, the local WARCO must stipulate
at the time of request for services that either no non-warranty work be done or be prepared
to pay for such work.
In the event that the repair activity should receive any reimbursement from the contractor,
the monies must be forwarded to the following address: Defense Accounting Office,

NOTE
• The air system includes the necessary valves and air lines to control
the vehicle's air-operated parts.
• On the M983A4 LET tractor vehicle, air from reservoir is controlled
by the winch tensioner and winch declutch manual valves, which in
turn operate the heavy-duty winch kickout and cable hold down
systems.
Pressurized air from the air compressor (6) is passed through the air dryer (7) to the
reservoir (1) - also called the “wet tank.” The air dryer (7) removes dirt and moisture from
the pressurized air.
Once air pressure in reservoir (1) rises above 65 to 75 psi (4.5 to 5.2 bar), a valve opens
and allows reservoirs (2, 3, 4, and 5) to be pressurized up to 133 psi (9.2 bar).
Air from reservoir (4 and 5) goes to the brake treadle valve (8). This air controls the rear
axle service parking brakes (9). Air pressure for reservoirs (4 and 5) is displayed by REAR
air pressure gauge (10).
Air from reservoir (2 and 3) goes to the brake treadle valve (8). This air controls the front
axle service brakes (11). Air pressure for reservoirs (2 and 3) is displayed by FRONT air
pressure gauge (12).
The PARKING BRAKE valve (13) controls air from reservoirs (4 and 5) and applies or
releases the rear axle service parking brakes (9).
Reservoirs (2 and 3 or 4 and 5) are interconnected so that if one reservoir fails, air is supplied
to release the rear axle service parking brakes (9) from whichever reservoir is functioning.
A buzzer will sound and the brake system failure (low air) indicator (14) will illuminate if air
pressure falls below 65 to 75 psi (4.5 to 5.2 bars).
NOTE
• There is a SPNSN LOW AIR indicator that warns when the
suspension system is low with air and it will not dump.
• A SPNSN LOW AIR indicator will illuminate if one or more zones of
air springs are deflated.
Specific to the M984A4, the front brake actuator valve (15) is used to apply the front axle
service brakes when using heavy-duty winch.

POWER TRAIN
POWER TRAIN
The drivetrain control system consists of the engine and transmission systems.
The vehicle drivetrain is enhanced through the use of an engine electrical control system
and 4500SP electronic transmission controller.
The engine electrical control and 4500SP transmission systems perform self-diagnostics,
engine/transmission system diagnostics, and vehicle performance diagnostics.
Self-diagnostics includes personnel-initiated checks of main electronic components such
as solenoids, wiring, sensor, and control modules.
System-diagnostics monitor critical engine and transmission parameters such as oil
temperature, oil pressure, coolant temperature, voltage, and gear range attained.
Vehicle performance diagnostic capabilities aid the mechanic in isolating problems outside
of the electronic control system.
Operating data is stored in the engine electrical control system and 4500SP electronic
transmission controller memory for display at a later time.
Power Train
Power for the vehicle is provided by a diesel engine (1), which is coupled directly to an
automatic transmission (2).
Figure 1.
0012-1
TM 9-2320-341-10 0012
Power from the transmission is transferred to the transfer case (3) and on to front and rear
axles (4) through a series of drive shafts and universal joints (5).
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
HEMTT series vehicles use an Allison HD4000 series transmission model 4500SP.
This hydrokinetic type transmission has an integral-locking torque converter, lock-up clutch,
constant mesh planetary gearing, the GEN IV, a speedometer, and control valve module
assembly.
The primary components of the GEN IV system are the Transmission Control Module
(TCM), transmission range selector in the vehicle cab, a control valve module beneath the
transmission gearing section which contains solenoid valves for clutch control, an engine
speed sensor, a turbine speed sensor, and an output speed sensor that relays the
transmission output speed to the TCM for shifting and control functions.

The TCM also protects the transmission from cold weather startups by inhibiting normal
shifting functions until a minimum sump temperature of 20°F (-7°C) is attained.
A check transmission indicator (2) located on the instrument panel alerts the operator,
momentarily, every time the system is activated as a lamp check, and when the TCM finds
a problem in the system.
If check transmission indicator (2) comes on during vehicle operation, the transmission will
continue to operate normally, in most cases. However, in some cases, the TCM will take
0012-3
TM 9-2320-341-10 0012
action to reduce the possibility of damage to the vehicle or the transmission (refer to limp
home/transmission fault (WP 0101) for more information. The transmission should be
serviced at the next opportunity.
The transmission range selector (1) allows the operator to select a vehicle drive range.
Operate transmission and transfer case (WP 0048) provides full operating instructions for
the transmission.
The TCM contains the microprocessor based electronics and is located in a protected area
within the vehicle cab.
The TCM receives information in the form of signals from switches and sensor, processes
the information, and sends electrical signals to the appropriate components, which control
the operation.
The TCM features diagnostics, which can sense electronic system malfunctions and identify
them with a displayed code.
Diagnostic codes can be accessed by two methods: a diagnostic data reader connected to
the vehicle at the electronic diagnostic receptacle or through the transmission range
selector (1) push buttons.

The transfer case has two gear ratios (high and low) and neutral. The vehicle must be
stopped before the transfer case can be shifted between ranges because the gears are not
synchronized.
Engagement of the transfer case in low range will automatically engage the drivetrain to the
front axles.
Front and rear axles (1) are single reduction, full floating axle shaft type.

The air intake system consists of a dry type air cleaner (1), turbocharger (2), engine blower
(3), and an aftercooler (4).

Figure 3.
Engine exhaust gases flow through the turbocharger (2) driving a turbine wheel.
0013-3
TM 9-2320-341-10 0013
A compressor wheel on the opposite end of the turbine wheel shaft rotates and draws in
fresh air through the air cleaner (1), compresses the air, and delivers it to the engine blower
(3).
Air from the engine blower (3) flows through the aftercooler (4) which cools the air before it
is delivered to the engine cylinders.
FUEL SYSTEM
NOTE
The fuel circuit is a conventional design for electronic unit injector diesel
engines.
The fuel transfer pump (1) draws fuel from fuel tank (2).

0013-4
TM 9-2320-341-10 0013
NOTE
The excess fuel flow also purges the air from the fuel system.
The excess fuel flow that is provided by the transfer pump (1) is used in order to cool the
electronic unit injectors (4).
The fuel from the transfer pump (1) flows through two micron fuel filters (5) at fuel filter base
(6).
Fuel temperature sensor (7) is mounted in the fuel filter base (6).
NOTE
• The engine control module (ECM) uses the sensor to monitor the
temperature of the fuel that is entering the engine.
• The information is used by the ECM to calculate a fuel correction
factor during engine operation.
Fuel priming pump (8) is positioned on the fuel filter base (6) in order to prime the system
when air has been introduced into the fuel system.
NOTE
The fuel enters the cylinder head at the front of the engine.
The fuel leaves the fuel filter base (6) and flows through fuel supply line (9) to the cylinder
head.
Fuel is delivered to electronic unit injectors (4) through fuel manifold (10) that is drilled into
the cylinder head during the manufacturing process.
NOTE
Excess fuel exits the cylinder head at the rear.
The fuel returns to the fuel filter base (6) through fuel return line (11) to the pressure
regulating valve that maintains a sufficient amount of back pressure in the system in order
to fill the electron unit injectors (4).
NOTE
After the fuel passes through the pressure regulating valve, the fuel re-
turns to the fuel tank.
The fuel flows continuously from the fuel supply through the electronic unit injectors (4) in
the head and back of the tank.
COOLING SYSTEM
Air is pulled through the air cleaner, and into the air inlet (1) by the low pressure turbocharger
(2).

Figure 5.
NOTE
Pressurizing the inlet air causes the air to heat up.
The low pressure turbocharger (2) compresses the air.
NOTE
• The high pressure turbocharger is used to compress the air to a
higher pressure.
• This increase in pressure continues to cause the inlet air's
temperature to increase.
Pressurized air exits the low pressure turbocharger (2) through an outlet (3) and the air is
forced into the inlet (4) of high pressure turbocharger (5).
NOTE
• The precooler uses engine coolant to cool the air.
• Without the precooler, the inlet air would be too hot in order to be
cooled sufficiently by the aftercooler
As the air is compressed, the air is forced through the high pressure turbocharger's outlet
(6) and into the precooler (7).
0013-6
TM 9-2320-341-10 0013
NOTE
• The inlet air is cooled further by transferring heat to the ambient air.
• The combustion efficiency increases as the temperature of the inlet
air decreases.
• Combustion efficiency helps to provide increased fuel efficiency and
increased horsepower output.
• The aftercooler core is a separate cooler core that is mounted in front
of the engine radiator.
• The engine fan and the ram effect of the forward motion of the vehicle
causes ambient air to move across the core.
The pressurized inlet air is cooled by the precooler (7) prior to being sent to the aftercooler
(8).
Inlet air is forced from the aftercooler (7) into the engine's intake manifold.
NOTE
• The airflow from the intake manifold into the cylinders and out of the
cylinders is controlled by engine's valve mechanisms.
• The inlet valves open when the piston moves downward on the inlet
stroke.
• When the inlet valves open, cooled, compressed air from the intake
manifold is pulled into the cylinder.
• The inlet valves close when the piston begins to move upward on the
compression stroke.
• The air in the cylinder is compressed by the piston.
• As the air is compressed by the piston, the temperature of the air in
the cylinder is heated.
• Fuel is injected into the cylinder when the piston is near the top of the
compression stroke.
• Combustion begins when the fuel mixes with the hot, pressurized air.
• The force of the combustion pushes the piston downward on the
power stroke.
• The exhaust valves are opened as the piston travels upward to the
top of the cylinder.
• The exhaust gases are pushed through the exhaust port into the
exhaust manifold.
• After the piston completes the exhaust stroke, the exhaust valves
close and the cycle begins again.
0013-7
TM 9-2320-341-10 0013
Each cylinder has two inlet valves (9) and two exhaust valves (10) that are mounted in the
cylinder head.
Exhaust gases from the exhaust manifold flow into the high pressure turbocharger's exhaust
inlet (11).
NOTE
• The hot gases that are expelled from the engine are used to turn the
turbine wheel of the turbocharger.
• The turbine wheel drives the compressor wheel that is used in order
to compress the inlet air that enters the inlet side of the turbocharger.
The exhaust gas exits from the high pressure turbocharger through the high pressure
turbocharger's exhaust outlet (12).
NOTE
The wastegate also prevents excessive boost of the engine during ac-
celeration.
Wastegate (13) is used by the high pressure turbocharger (5) to prevent an overspeed
condition of the turbocharger turbine wheel during engine acceleration.
The wastegate (13) is controlled by the boost pressure that is felt in the air hose assembly
that connects the inlet side of the two turbochargers.
NOTE
• As the diaphragm reacts to high boost pressure, a valve is activated.
• The valve allows exhaust gas to bypass the high pressure
turbocharger's turbine, which effectively controls the speed of the
turbine.
Wastegate pressure line (14) provides the air pressure to the wastegate's diaphragm.
NOTE
• The exhaust gases drive the turbocharger's turbine.
• This energy is used in order to compress the inlet air in the same
manner as the high pressure turbocharger.
The exhaust gases then enter the exhaust inlet (15) for the low pressure turbocharger (2).
The exhaust gases then exit the low pressure turbocharger (2) through the exhaust outlet
(16) into the vehicle's exhaust system.

cover as well as prevent the tire carrier from locking in full up position.
NOTE
If passenger side top engine access cover is open and laying flat, the tire
(in the full up position) will not allow the access cover to be closed.
3. Ensure passenger side top engine access cover is secured closed.
CAUTION
The tire carrier lock rods are a snag hazard to the movement of the tire
carrier and must be properly stowed in stowage brackets prior to lowering
the tire carrier. Failure to properly stow tire carrier lock rods prior to low-
ering operation may result in damage to equipment.
4. Ensure left lock rod (4) is properly stowed in stowage bracket (5).

5. Ensure right lock rod (6) is properly stowed in stowage bracket (7).
WARNING
If tire carrier is in any position other than full up and locked (tire carrier
latch engaged) or resting on ground, only tire carrier pump operator
should be within six feet (1.83 m) of passenger side of vehicle from battery
box forward. Failure to comply may result in personnel being struck by
tire carrier/spare tire, causing injury or death to personnel.
6. Ensure safety area is clear of personnel and equipment. Assistant will stand outside
the safety area and ensure no personnel wander into safety area while raising operation
is taking place.

NOTE
• The operator will notice a small amount of oil being expelled with the
air from the tire carrier pump each time it cycles, this is a normal
condition.
• When the power control is pressed, the tire carrier pump cyclic rate
will be rapid at first, and then slow noticeably. As cyclic rate slows,
the operator should notice the tire carrier begin to move.
8. Press and hold power control (9).
NOTE
• The tire carrier can be stopped at any time during raising operations
by releasing power control.
0038-10
TM 9-2320-341-10 0038
• As the tire carrier is raised, the tire carrier pump will begin to cycle at
an increased rate.
9. Continue to raise tire carrier until it is in the full up position. The operator will notice a
significant slow down in the tire carrier pump cyclic rate. Release power control (9).
WARNING
Always maintain a distance of six feet (1.83 m) until confirmation that tire
carrier latch is engaged. Failure to comply may result in personnel being
struck by tire carrier/spare tire causing severe injury or death to person-
nel.
10. Maintaining a safe distance of 6 ft. (1.83 m), the assistant will check the tire carrier latch
(10), ensuring it has fully engaged the tire carrier arm bar (11).

INITIAL SETUP:
Not Applicable
WARNING
Do not ford water unless depth is known. Water deeper than 4 ft. (1.2 m)
may enter vehicle. Failure to comply may result in injury or death to per-
sonnel.
NOTE
After vehicle fords water obstacle, service all lubrication points below
fording depth and check submerged gearboxes for presence of water
upon return from mission (refer to lubrication instructions (WP 0134) for
more information).
CAUTION
Towing a semitrailer or trailer may affect maximum fording depth (refer
to applicable semitrailer/trailer operators manual). Do not ford water ob-
stacle deeper than maximum depth allowed by either tractor vehicle or
semitrailer/trailer (whichever depth is less). Failure to comply may result
in damage to equipment.
1. Ensure depth of fording site is not more than 4 ft. (1.2 m).
2. Ensure bottom at fording site is firm enough that 4 ft. (1.2 m) maximum fording depth
will not be exceeded and vehicle will not become mired.
3. Stop vehicle at edge of water.

INTERIM NUCLEAR, BIOLOGICAL, AND CHEMICAL (NBC) DECONTAMINATION
PROCEDURES
INITIAL SETUP:
Not Applicable
NOTE
To reduce the effects of contamination in an NBC-contaminated environ-
ment, the HEMTT series vehicle should be operated with all windows,
doors, and stowage boxes closed.
1. The HEMTT series vehicle is capable of being operated by personnel wearing nuclear,
biological, or chemical (NBC) protective clothing without special tools or supporting
equipment. Refer to FM 3-11.5 (WP 0146) for information on decontamination
procedures. Specific procedures for the HEMTT series vehicle are as follows:
a. Rubber sleeves and other rubber items, rope, and gaskets will absorb and retain
chemical agents. Replacement of these items is the recommended method of
decontamination.
b. Lubricants or fluids may be present on the external surfaces of the HEMTT series
vehicle or its components due to leaks or normal operation. These fluids will absorb
NBC agents. The preferred method of decontamination is removal of these fluids
using conventional decontamination methods in accordance with FM 3-11.5. (WP
0146)
c. Continued decontamination of the external HEMTT series vehicle surfaces with
supertropical bleach (STB)/decontamination solution number 2 (DS2) will degrade
clear plastic (e.g., hydraulic fluid reservoir sight glass) to the point where looking
through it will become impossible. This problem will become more evident for
soldiers wearing protective masks. Therefore, the use of STB or DS2
decontamination in the area of clear plastic should be minimized. Clear plastic
should be decontaminated with warm, soapy water.
d. External surfaces of the HEMTT series vehicle and related equipment such as the
remote control units that are marked with painted or stamped lettering will not
withstand repeated decontamination with STB or DS2 without degradation of this
lettering. Therefore, the recommended method of decontamination for these areas
is washing with warm, soapy water.
0081-1
TM 9-2320-341-10 0081
NOTE
Replacement of hardware, as well as conventional methods of decon-
tamination, are the preferred methods of decontamination for the areas
listed below.
2. Areas that will entrap contaminants, making efficient decontamination extremely difficult
include the following:
a. Exposed heads of screws.
b. Areas adjacent to and behind exposed hydraulic lines.
c. Hinged areas or access doors on the stowage boxes.
d. Retaining chains for lynchpins and lockpins.
e. Areas around the tiedowns, lifting rings, crevices around access doors, external
valves and drains, and exposed hydraulic connectors.
f. Areas behind knobs, levers, externally-mounted equipment, specification and
advisory data plates, and roller and locking mechanisms.
g. Winch cable and winch hook assembly.
3. Conventional methods of decontamination should be used on all areas listed in Steps
(1) and (2), while stressing the importance of thoroughness, and the probability of some
degree of continuing contact, including vapor hazard.
4. For additional NBC information, refer to FM 3-11.3 (WP 0146) and FM 3-11.4. (WP

CAUTION
• When operating vehicle in very hot temperatures of above 100°F (38°
C), extra care must be taken to prevent overheating engine
(temperatures over 230°F (110°C) and transmission (temperatures
over 300°F, 149°C). Watch water and transmission temperature
gauges closely. Failure to comply may result in damage to
equipment.
• Check oil levels often and keep operating strain as low as possible.
Vehicle cooling and lubrication systems support each other. Failure
of one system will rapidly cause failure of other systems.
NOTE
• Close heater valves to improve the efficiency of cabin air
conditioning.
• Closing the heater valves disables cabin heat.
1. Keep operating temperatures as low as possible:
a. Set transmission range selector (1) to N (neutral) while engine is running and not
required to move.
b. Use low gear ranges only when necessary.
c. Stop vehicle for cooling off periods, and idle engine as often as possible. Let engine
idle for approximately 3 minutes before shutting down. Idling will cool engine faster
than quick shutdown and may prevent damage from remaining engine heat.
d. Check oil levels often. Oil seals are more likely to leak in extreme hot weather.
e. Check air filter restriction indicator (2) frequently. If indicator shows red:
(1) Park vehicle. (WP 0056)

NOTE
Operating in mud can worsen vehicle braking and speed up brake wear.
If braking worsens while operating in mud, dry brakes by driving vehicle
approximately 500 ft. (153 m) with service brakes frequently applied. This
must be done with brake drums totally out of mud, so that drying action
can take place. If adequate braking is not restored by drying brakes, notify
field level maintenance.

Not Applicable
CAUTION
If transmission range selector flashes current range selection while op-
erating vehicle (shift selection is inhibited), DO NOT SHUT OFF EN-
GINE or attempt to change range selection. Shutting off engine may result
in the inability of selecting a drive range at startup, and diagnostic data
may be lost. Move vehicle to safe place and notify field level maintenance
as soon as possible.
NOTE
When transmission oil is below 19°F (-7°C), the only gears available are
R (reverse), N (Neutral), and 3 (third gear range) when D (drive) is se-
lected. The remaining gears in D (drive) will not be available until trans-
mission oil in sump warms above 19°F (-7°C).

WARNING
NOTE
The operator should consider the following guidelines carefully
with regard to type of mission, environment, terrain, etc., when de-
ciding on whether to continue the mission, deadline, or return
vehicle to field level maintenance.
(2) No additional damage to the transmission will occur. The operator can continue
to operate vehicle in the limp home mode and complete mission. However, the
operator must be aware of the following guidelines:
(a) DO NOT shut off engine until the decision is made to deadline vehicle.
Once the engine is shut off, the vehicle will not be operable until the problem
is corrected.
(b) As the engine cannot be turned off and the transmission is locked into gear,
the operator will not be able to leave the cab until vehicle is deadlined.
(c) The vehicle will not be able to operate in R (reverse).
(d) Depending on gear range the transmission is locked into, the operator may
not be able to drive vehicle up steep grades. (WP 0054)
(e) The service brake pedal (2) may need to be applied slightly earlier than
normal when stopping the vehicle.
(f) Depending upon gear range the transmission is locked into and the terrain
the vehicle is operating in, the engine and/or transmission may overheat.
The operator must closely monitor the engine coolant temperature gauge
(4) and the transmission oil temperature gauge (5).
CAUTION
If overheating occurs when operating in the transmission limp
home mode, the operator should stop the vehicle (do not shut
off engine), and allow the transmission and engine to cool down
to normal operating levels. If the engine and transmission do
not cool down, or overheating reoccurs, the operator should

INTRODUCTION - PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
PMCS INTRODUCTION
This section contains PMCS requirements for HEMTT series vehicles. The PMCS tables
contain checks and services necessary to ensure that the vehicle is ready for operation.
Using PMCS tables, perform maintenance at specified intervals.
Every mission begins and ends with paperwork. There is not much of it, but it must be kept
up. The filled out forms and records have several uses. They are a permanent record of
services, repairs, and modifications made on the vehicle; they are reports to unit
maintenance and to your Commander; and they serve as a checklist to find out what is
wrong with the vehicle after its last use, and whether those faults have been fixed. For the
information needed on forms and records, refer to DA PAM 750-8. (WP 0146)
0127-1
TM 9-2320-341-10 0127
• Cleanliness: Dirt, grease, oil, and debris only get in the way and may cover up a
serious problem. Use solvent cleaning compound (WP 0149, Table 1, Item 6, 7,
8, 9, 10, 11) on all metal surfaces and soapy water on rubber.
• Bolts, Nuts, and Screws: Check bolts, nuts, and screws for obvious looseness,
missing, bent, or broken condition and tighten or replace as necessary. They
cannot all be checked with a tool, of course, but look for chipped paint, bare metal,
or rust around bolt heads.
• Welds: Look for loose or chipped paint, rust, or gaps where parts are welded
together. If a bad weld is found, have it repaired.
• Electric Wires and Connectors: Look for cracked or broken insulation, bare
wires, and loose or broken connectors. Tighten loose connectors and make sure
wires are in good shape.
• Hydraulic Lines and Fittings: Look for wear, damage, and leaks, and make sure
clamps and fittings are tight. Wet spots show leaks, of course, but a stain around
a fitting or connector can indicate a leak. If a connector or fitting is loose, tighten
it. If something is broken or worn out, repair or replace per applicable procedure.
• Damage is defined as: Any conditions that affect safety or would render the
vehicle unserviceable for mission requirements.
FLUID LEAKAGE
It is necessary to know how fluid leakage affects the status of fuel, oil, coolant, and the
hydraulic systems. The following are definitions of types/classes of leakage necessary to
know in order to determine the status of the vehicle.
NOTE
Equipment operation is allowable with minor leakage (Class I or II). Con-
sideration must be given to the fluid capacity in the item/system being
checked/inspected. When in doubt, notify the supervisor. When operating
with Class I or II leaks, continue to check fluid levels as required in the
PMCS. Class III leaks should be repaired per applicable procedure.
Class I :Seepage of fluid (as indicated by wetness or discoloration) not great enough to
form drops.
Class II: Leakage of fluid great enough to form drops but not enough to cause drops to
drip from item being checked/inspected.
Class III: Leakage of fluid great enough to form drops that fall from the item being checked/
inspected.
Prior to performing your PMCS, check with your PLL clerk to verify that the latest
publications are being used by the operator and organizational unit.

LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS
INITIAL SETUP:
Not Applicable
WARNING
Adhesives, solvents, and sealing compounds can burn easily, can give
off harmful vapors, and are harmful to skin and clothing. Keep away from
open fire and use in well-ventilated area. If adhesive, solvent, or sealing
compound gets on skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and wa-
ter. Failure to comply may result in injury or death to personnel.
NOTE
• The lowest level of maintenance authorized to lubricate a specific
point is indicated by where that lubrication point falls within the PMCS
tables. Operator/crew are only authorized to lubricate those points
within the operator PMCS tables. Field level maintenance personnel
are authorized to lubricate all points regardless of which tables
(operator or field level) those lubrication points are listed.
• Refer to PMCS tables for specific lubrication points and localized
views.
• Lubrication intervals are for normal operating conditions. Intervals
may be shortened as required for severe operating conditions.
• Clean all lubrication points with cleaning compound, solvent and
allow to dry prior to servicing.
• When using a grease gun, apply lubricant to the fitting until clean
lubricant squeezes out of the part being lubricated.
• After a thorough high pressure washing, lubricate all grease fittings
and oil can points outside and underneath vehicle.
