MAINTENANCE ALLOCATION
SECTION I. MAINTENANCE ALLOCATION
1. GENERAL
a. This appendix assigns maintenance functions to be performed on components, assemblies, and subassemblies
by the lowest appropriate maintenance category.
b.
Columns in the maintenance allocation chart are as follows:
(1) Part of component. This column shows only the nomenclature or standard item name. Additional
descriptive data is included only where clarification is necessary to identify the component. Components, assemblies,
and subassemblies are listed in top down order. That is, the assemblies which are part of a component are listed
immediately below that component, and the subassemblies which are part of an assembly are listed immediately below
that assembly. Each generation break-down (components, assemblies, or subassemblies) is listed in disassembly order
or alphabetical order.
(2) Maintenance function. This column indicates the various maintenance functions allocated to the echelons.
(a) Service. To clean, to preserve, and to replenish lubricants.
(b) Adjust. To regulate periodically to prevent malfunction.
(c) Inspect. To verify serviceability and to detect incipient electrical or mechanical failure by scrutiny.
(d) Test. To verify serviceability and to detect incipient electrical or mechanical failure by use of special
equipment such as gages, meters, etc.
(e) Replace. To substitute serviceable components, assemblies, or subassemblies, for unserviceable
components, assemblies, or subassemblies.
(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 welding, grinding, riveting,
straightening, and replacement of parts other than the trial and error replacement of running spare type
items such as fuses, lamps, or electron tubes.
