Electric Wires and Connectors. Look for cracked, frayed, or broken insulation, bare wires, and loose or broken
connectors. Tighten loose connectors. Report any damaged wires to your supervisor.
(f)
Hoses and Fluid Lines. Look for wear, damage, and leaks, and make sure clamps and fittings are tight.
Wet spots show leaks, but a stain around a fitting or connector can also mean a leak. If a leak comes from a loose fitting or
connector, tighten it. If something is broken or worn out, replace it or report it to your supervisor.
c. CLEANING AGENTS
CAUTION
l
DO NOT SMOKE when using cleaning solvent. NEVER USE IT NEAR AN OPEN FLAME. Be sure
there is a fire extinguisher nearby and use cleaning solvent only in well-ventilated places. Flash point of
solvent is 138°F (60°C).
l
USE CAUTION when using cleaning solvents. Cleaning solvents evaporate quickly and can irritate
exposed skin if solvents contact shin. In cold weather, contact of exposed skin with cleaning solvents can
cause frostbite.
l
Use only those authorized cleaning solvents or agents listed in Appendix D.
(1) Treating Mildewed Areas. Canvas that has mildewed can be cleaned by scrubbing with a dry brush. If it
is necessary to use water to remove dirt, it should not be used until mildew has been removed. After removing mildew,
examine fabric. Look for evidence of deterioration. If canvas has deteriorated, it should be replaced.
(2)
Cleaning Rust or Grease. When cleaning grease buildup or rusty places, use a cleaning solvent. Then apply a thin
coat of light oil to affected area.
