TM    10-6630–235–13&P APPENDIX  B MAINTENANCE   ALLOCATION   CHART Section  I.  INTRODUCTION B-1. General. a.  This  section  provides  a  general  explanation  of  all  maintenance  and  repair  functions  authorized  at various maintenance categories. b.   The   Maintenance   Allocation   Chart   (MAC)   in   Section   II   designates   overall   authority   and responsibility for the performance of maintenance functions on the identified end item or component. The application  of  the  maintenance  functions  to  the  end  item  or  component  will  be  consistent  with  the capacities and capabilities of the designated maintenance categories. c. Section Ill lists the tools and test equipment (both special tools and common tool sets) required for each maintenance function as referenced from Section Il. d.  Section  IV  contains  supplemental  instructions  and  explanatory  notes  for  a  particular  maintenance function. B-2. Maintenance  Functions.  Maintenance functions will be limited to and defined as follows: a. Inspect.  To  determine  the  serviceability  of  an  item  by  comparing  its  physical,  mechanical,  and/or electrical  characteristics  with  established  standards  through  examination  (e.g.,  by  sight,  sound,  or  feel). b. Test. To verify serviceability by measuring the mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, or electrical characteristics of an item and comparing those characteristics with prescribed standards. c. Service. Operations required periodically to keep an item in proper operating condition, i.e., to clean  (includes  decontaminate,  when  required),  to  preserve,  to  drain,  to  paint,  or  to  replenish  fuel, lubricants,  chemical  fluids,  or  gases. d. Adjust.  To maintain or regulate, within prescribed limits, by bringing into proper or exact position, or by setting the operating characteristics to specified parameters. e. Align.  To  adjust  specified  variable  elements  of  an  item  to  bring  about  optimum  or  desired performance. f. Calibrate To determine and cause corrections to be made or to be adjusted on instruments or test, measuring, and diagnostic equipments used in precision measurement. Consists of comparisons of two  instruments,  one  of  which  is  a  certified  standard  of  knob  accuracy,  to  detect  and  adjust  any discrepancy in the accuracy of the instrument being compared. g. Remove/Install To remove and install the same item when required to perform service or other maintenance functions. Install may be the act of emplacing, seating, or fixing into position a spare, repair part, or module (component or assembly) in a manner to allow the proper functioning of an equipment or system. h. Replace. To remove an unserviceable item and install a serviceable counterpart in its place. “Replace” is authorized by the MAC and is shown as the third position code of the SMR code. B - 1
