OPERATOR’S PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKSAND SERVICES (PMCS)2-6. General. Your operator’s PMCS table 2-10 for the transporters, table 2-11 for the ramp bay and table 2-12 forthe interior bay, lists inspections and care required to keep the improved float bridge equipment in good operating condi-tion. Operator PMCS are performed to ensure that the equipment is ready for operation at all times. So that each pieceof equipment can be thoroughly serviced, three seperate tables have been prepared, one for each major component.a. Before you operate, perform your before (B) PMCS. Observe all CAUTIONS and WARNINGS.b. While you operate, perform your during (D) PMCS. Observe all CAUTIONS and WARNINGS.c. If your equipment fails to operate, refer to paragraph Chapter 3, Section II.2-7. Purpose of PMCS Table. The purpose of the PMCS table is to provide a systematic method of inspectionand servicing the equipment. In this way, small defects can be detected early before they become a major problem causingthe equipment to fail to complete its mission. The PMCS table is arranged with the individual PMCS procedures listedin sequence under assigned intervals. The most logical time (before or during operation) to perform each procedure deter-mines the interval to which it is assigned. Make a habit of doing the checks in the same order each time and anything wrongwill be seen quickly. See paragraphs 2-6 and 2–9 for an explanation of the columns in tables 2-10, 2-11, and 2-12.2-8. Explanation of columns. The following is a list of the PMCS table column headings with a description ofthe information found in each column.a.
