from accident or from causes other than wear and tear, and explain briefly under

remarks. For example, indicate "accident", "no water", "no antifreeze", or "no

lubricant" (for components such as engines and gear cases).

(2) Diagnosis. Fill out the diagnosis column as follows:

(a) Opposite the item concerned, enter the nature of the unsatisfactory condition in

concise terms such as "broken", "worn", "leaks", "noisy", or "corroded".

(b) Enter the total quantity to be repaired or replaced if two or more of a component or

part are used in the vehicle. (e.g., "doors repair (1) and replace (1)")

(3) Satisfactory. Enter an "X" if the component or part is serviceable according to

appropriate established standards.

(4) Repair. Enter an "X" if an unserviceable component or part can be restored to

serviceability by adjustment or repair at the direct or general support maintenance

level.

(5) Replace. Enter one of the following symbols if the component or part requires

replacement:

(a) U- if the item is uneconomically repairable.

(b) M- if the item is missing.

(6) Man- Hours Labor. Opposite the item concerned, enter the total number of man-hours

required to effect item repair of replacement (include direct and indirect labor).

NOTE

Repair or replacement man-hours for vehicle components are

contained in the applicable MAC. If vehicle repairs are under-

taken at the maintenance activity performing the technical

inspection, man-hour data locally developed through

experience will take precedence over the data in the MACs.

(7) Cost of Parts. Opposite the item concerned, enter the total cost of all parts and materiel

that will be used in the repair or the replacement operation. This is to include the cost of

new, overhauled, or fabricated repair parts, assemblies, modules, and components. Item

unit prices are obtained from the AMDF. Replacement components and assemblies used

in the repair process will be costed at the standard inventory price. Credit will be taken

for the return of the repairable component in an amount equal to the current standard

military price, less the estimated cost to repair the component.

(8) Subtotals. Enter the totals for labor and cost of parts in their respective boxes.

(9) Modifications. List the number of each modification work order (MWO) required to be

applied.

(10) Other Shortages. Enter all shortages (e.g. tools, equipment, and manuals) other

than those already shown elsewhere as missing.

(11) Remarks. Enter an explanation of damage resulting from accident or causes

other than fair wear and tear, as indicated in paragraph A-1b(1)(c). Use this

space for any information pertinent to the inspection.

(12) Total Repair Costs.

(a) Total Man-Hours Labor. Enter the sum of the subtotals of all Man-Hours Labor

columns and indirect labor and overhead.
