PROCEDURES FOR COMMON COMPONENTS AND MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS (Con't)
Seals. Seals may develop leaks during storage, or shortly thereafter. If leaking persists, refer to the applicable
maintenance section in this manual for corrective maintenance procedures.
4-59. REMOVAL OF EQUIPMENT FROM ADMINISTRATIVE STORAGE
Activation. Restore the equipment to normal operating condition in accordance with the instructions contained in
Servicing. Resume the maintenance service schedule in effect at the commencement of storage, or service the
equipment before the scheduled dates in order to produce a staggered maintenance workload.
PREPARATION OF EQUIPMENT FOR SHIPMENT
Refer to TM 55-21, TM 55-601, and TM 743-200-1 for additional instructions on processing, storage, and shipment of
materiel.
Trailers that have been removed from storage for shipment do not have to be reprocessed if they will reach their
destination within the administrative storage period. Reprocess only if inspection reveals any corrosion or if
anticipated in-transit weather conditions make it necessary.
When a trailer is received and has already been processed for domestic shipment, as indicated on DD Form 1397, it
does not have to be reprocessed for storage unless corrosion and deterioration are found during the inspection upon
receipt. List on SF Form 364 all discrepancies found because of poor preservation, packaging, packing, marking,
handling, loading, storage, or excessive preservation. Repairs that cannot be handled by the receiving unit must have
tags attached listing needed repairs. A report of these conditions will be submitted by the unit commander for action by
an ordnance maintenance unit.
