Lesson 2/Learning Event 3
When a vehicle is in storage, no sampling is required until the vehicle is
scheduled for operation use.
Maintenance float equipment will be sampled
after 25 hours of operation or quarterly, whichever occurs first.
When a
vehicle is used for developmental purposes, as a training aid, or for static
display, authorization to discontinue sampling or to sample at longer
intervals may be granted by the applicable major command.
When the
equipment returns to normal operations, sampling intervals established in
the appendices of TB 43-0210 will once again apply.
Special samples will be clearly marked SPECIAL and banded with red tape or
marked in some other conspicuous manner so that the laboratory may easily
identify them. The DD Form 2026 (Oil Analysis Request) that accompanies the
sample to the laboratory will be marked SPECIAL in the Remarks block, and
its borders will be outlined in red.
To support the AOAP, your unit will need to maintain an adequate level of
forms and sampling supplies. Supplies required for oil sampling operations
are listed in Figure 15. Quantities are determined by number and types of
assigned equipment enrolled in the AOAP and the frequency at which they are
sampled.
