TM 5-6635-386-12&P hour at one meter (3.3 feet) from the external surface of the package. The number must be rounded up to the first decimal place. For example, a reading of 0.11 should be rounded to 0.2. The typical TI number for testers is .05. The  TI  is  used  to  designate  the  degree  of  control  to  be exercised by the carrier during transportation. f. When a tester shipment is received, immediately perform a wipe test to determine whether or not    the    radioactive    sources    were    damaged    during shipping. g.  Only  serial  numbered  testers  listed  on  item manager  letter  for  repair/overhaul  should  be  sent  to  the manufacturer.    No    replacements    are    allowed    without notification   of   item   manager,   AMSTA-FHV,   AV   786- 7787/5827   or   Commercial   (313)   574-7787/5827.   (See Para 4-20 for additional information). 5-17. OPERATOR/UNIT PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS AND SERVICES (PMCS) NOTE Your Preventive Maintenance  Check  and  Services  table lists the inspection and care of your equipment required to keep it in good operating condition. a.   The   number   column   of   your   PMCS   is   the source  for  the  number  used  on  the  TM  column  on  DA Form 2404. b.  The  interval  column  of  your  PMCS  table  tells you when to do a certain check or service. (1) Before you operate. Always keep in mind the WARNING  S  and  CAUTIONS.  Perform  your  before  (B) PMCS. (2) While you operate. Always  keep  in  mind  the WARNINGS  and  CAUTIONS.  Perform  your  during  (D) PMCS. (3)  After  you  operate.  Be  sure  to  perform  your after (A) PMCS. c.  The  procedure  column  of  your  PMCS  table tells  you  how  to  do  the  required  checks  and  services. Carefully follow these instructions. If you do not have the tools,  or  if  the  procedure  tells  you  to,  contact  the  unit maintenance. d.    If    your    equipment    does    not    perform    as required, refer to the manual troubleshooting section for possible  problems.  Report  any  malfunctions  or  failures on  the  proper  DA  Form  2404  or  refer  to  DA  Pamphlet 738-750. NOTE The  terms  ready/available  and  mission capable     refer     to     the     same     status: Equipment   is   on   hand   and   is   able   to perform  all  its  combat  missions  without further  endangering  the  lives  of  crew  or operators in a combat environment (see DA Pamphlet 738-750). f. Always do your PMCS in the same order so it gets to be a habit. Once you’ve had some practice, you’ll spot anything wrong in a hurry. g. While performing  PMCS,  observe  WARNING and CAUTIONS preceding those operations which could endanger    your    safety    or    result    in    damage    to    the equipment. (1) Keep it clean; dirt, grease, oil and debris only get in the way and may cover up a serious problem. Use dry cleaning solvent (P-D-680) to clean metal surfaces. (2)  Bolts,  nuts,  and  screws:  check  that  they  are not loose, missing, bent or broken. Tighten any bolt, nut, or screw that you find loose. 5-4
