When used for equipment (other than Army aircraft), the maintenance supervisor transcribes the faults from DA Form 2404 to the 2408-14. Not only do the known uncorrected faults on equipment get transcribed from the 2404 to the 2408-14, but also minor replacement shortages which may have been shortages for some time. 2404

2408-14

This form is used by the operator when doing routine preventive maintenance inspections, and by any inspector of the equipment at any echelon. The DA Form 2408-14 is kept 6 months after the last entry is made in column f. After that you destroy it.

DA Form 2409 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE

[blocks in formation]

If you've used this single card log before, then you're in good shape. The form hasn't been changed. It still can be used as an insert in the log book to cover items included in a major combination. Or, it can be used as a separate log for such items as medical equipment, etc.

Put down the number of the organizational TM, parts manual, etc., that apply to the inspection and maintenance of the item (you don't have to list the MWO's in the block). You also include the name of the manufacturer, and the date item was accepted. If unknown, put it down. The cost of the item goes there too if it applies. If it doesn't put N/A.

SECTION B-MAINTENANCE INSPECTION RECORD

Put down the day, month and year the scheduled maintenance inspection or service was completed. The person who does the maintenance inspection puts his initials in column b. You enter the results of the inspection and what corrective action was taken by organizational maintenance. If this is just a routine maintenance service and the equipment is all right, you can put down PM Inspected - OK. But, where repairs or services are required by support maintenance, then the job order number will be put down.

SECTION CREPAIR AND COST RECORD $

This info goes on the back of the form-the date of support maintenance repair, job order number, description of repair and manhours required. Some commanders want cost of parts, cost of labor and total so there are spaces provided for this.

All required MWO's applying to the equipment will be recorded by the owning organization. When an official MWO is received it will be recorded regardless of the echelon responsible for applying the modification. If this Section D (Modification Record) is filled, then you can attach a DA Form 2408-5, Equipment Modification Record, to the 2409 and put down the info.

You enter the MWO number, date of MWO, symbol "U" for urgent or "N" for normal (whichever applies), echelon responsible for applying the MWO, MWO kit number or title. The date the MWO was finished, the actual manhours it took to apply MWO, and the name of the organization applying the MWO will be entered by the man who completes or checks the work. He will also sign his name to show the job's been finished. Be sure you also report accomplishment of the MWO on the DA Form 2407.

If you fill up all the space in Section B or C, you can use another 2409 to continue it on. Fill in the heading completely, and then at the bottom of the form mark "Continuation Log." Staple the two logs together.

The Equipment Maintenance Record (Consolidated) is a permanent record. It will go with the item throughout its service life. The consolidated log may be kept in the using unit's maintenance section or in the log book as an insert for a component. This form won't be destroyed until the equipment is disposed of.

There's very little that you have to worry with as far as calibration of fire control equipment in combat vehicles is concerned.

When you run into trouble with any of the fire control items, you send out an SOS on a DA Form 2407 to your support maintenance (unless it's something minor that you're authorized to take care of by your TM).

So, do yourself, your equipment, and your support people a favor by not trying to work on items which you're supposed to keep your "hands off."

AMMO RECORDS COMBAT VEHICLES

You're not going to have much trouble when it comes to filling in forms for ammo in your tanks-because there shouldn't be too many-you have the Weapons Record Data, DA Form 2408-4.

Most of the forms for ammo, such as the DA Form 2415, Ammunition Condition Report, and DA Form 2407, which is used as an Equipment Improvement Recommendation, are usually filled in by higher echelon.

It's up to your CO to say what reports will be made on ammo.

When ammo doesn't fire the way it's supposed to (malfunction), then it is reported in accordance with AR 700-1300-8.

Equipment in this class include all major items that fall in the 300000 primary equipment category. The Army Equipment Record Procedures for vehicles in the 300000 category are basically the same as for combat vehicles. Although there are differences, such as equipment entries and mailing addresses, most of the writings on combat vehicles apply to tactical and support equipment and vice

versa.

The high points covering Operational Records, Maintenance Records, Historical Records and Calibration Records are on the following pages. If you need more details on any form, then use your copy of the new TM 38-750.

These operational forms are basic requirements for all drivers and equipment. See pages 5-7 for a few more important words on these forms.

There is room on the form for more than one operator within the same 24-hour period; plus space for assignments to four different agencies.

One important thing you want to keep in mind is that whether or not you use the 2400, you must also maintain the DA Form 2408-1 that's in your vehicle log book.
