Equipment Performance Checklist
a. General.
The
equipment performance checklist is used to
systematically check equipment performance.
All corrective measures that
the operator can perform are given in the corrective measures column. If
the action taken by the operator does not correct the fault, additional
maintenance is required by higher echelon personnel.
The operator should
note on the DA Form 2404 how the equipment performed and the corrective
measures taken.
Start at the beginning of the checklist and follow each
step in sequence to locate trouble.
