worn, serviceable, not leaking, and adequately lubricated as defined below.
(1) An item is CORRECTLY ASSEMBLED when it is in proper position and all parts are present.
(2) When wires, nuts, washers, hoses, or attaching hardware cannot be moved by hand, or wrench,
they are SECURE.
(3) An item is WORN if there is too much play between joining parts or when marking data, warning,
and caution plates are not readable.
(4) An item is UNSERVICEABLE if it is worn beyond repair and is likely to fail before the next sched-
uled inspection.
(5) LEAKS. TM 9-2320-289-10 contains definitions of Class I, II, and Ill leaks and their effect on vehi-
cle operation.

WARNING
Drycleaning solvent is inflammable and will not be used near an open flame. A fire extinguisher
will be kept nearby when the solvent is used. Use only in well-ventilated places. Failure to do
this may result in injury to personnel, and/or damage to equipment.
c. Where the instruction “clean” appears in a procedure, you must use drycleaning solvent (Appendix C,
Item 15) to clean grease or oil from metal parts. After the item is cleaned, rinsed, and dried, apply a light grade
of oil to unprotected surfaces to prevent rusting.
