Be sure to perform your PMCS each time you use the equipment.  Always do your PMCS in the same order, so it gets to be a habit.  Once you’ve had some practice, you’ll quickly spot anything wrong. Do your BEFORE (B) PMCS just before you use the equipment.  Pay attention to WARNINGs, CAUTIONs, and NOTEs. Do your DURING (D) PMCS while you use the equipment.  During operation means to check the equipment and its related components while it is being used.  Pay attention to WARNINGs, CAUTIONs and NOTEs. Do your AFTER (A) PMCS right after using the equipment.  Pay attention to WARNINGs, CAUTIONs and NOTEs. Do your WEEKLY (W) PMCS once a week. Do your MONTHLY (M) PMCS once a month. Use DA Form 2404 (Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Worksheet) to record any faults that you discover before, during, or after operation, unless you can fix them.  You DO NOT need to record faults that you fix. Frequency of Performing PMCS.  PMCS will be performed before equipment is rigged for use, during modification and repair, after use, or at any time deemed necessary by the air delivery equipment maintenance officer.
