2-7. SCOPE.
These general maintenance instructions contain general shop practices and specific methods you must be familiar with to
properly maintain the 6KVRRTFL. You should read and understand these practices and methods before starting
maintenance tasks on the 6KVRRTFL.
2-8 WORK SAFETY.
a.
Before starting a task, think about the risks and hazards to your safety as well as others. Wear protective
equipment such as safety goggles or lenses, safety shoes, rubber apron or gloves. Protect yourself against injury.
b.
When lifting heavy parts, have someone help you. Ensure that lifting equipment is working properly, that it is
suitable for the task assigned, and is secured against slipping.
c.
Always use power tools carefully.
2-9. GENERAL INFORMATION.
a.
Before beginning a task, find out how much repair, modification, or replacement is needed to fix the equipment as
described in this manual. Sometimes the reason for equipment failure can be seen right away and complete
teardown is not necessary to repair or replace damaged or broken parts.
b.
All tags and forms attached to the equipment must be checked to learn the reason for removal from service.
Check all Modification Work Orders (MWO) and Technical Bulletins (TB) for equipment changes or broken parts.
c.
In some cases a part may be damaged by removal. If the part appears to be good, and other parts behind it are
not defective, leave it on and continue the procedure. Here are a few simple rules:
(1) Do not take out dowel pins or studs unless loose, bent, broken or otherwise damaged.
(2) Do not pull bearings or bushings unless damaged. If you must get at parts behind them, pull out bearings or
bushings carefully.
(3) Replace all gaskets, seals, and preformed packings.
