SECTION 6

Scheduled Maintenance Inspections

Contents

DESCRIPTION

This section establishes scheduled maintenance inspections of the MPT at the designated frequencies.
Performing these inspections will identify potential system discrepancies and allow preventative maintenance
to be performed before a component or system is rendered totally inoperative.

**NOTE: The recommended oil change intervals are based upon operating conditions, speeds, and loads.
Limited service applications may allow the recommended interval to be increased. Sever service applications
may require the recommended interval to be reduced. For more information, contact Mega Product Support at
U.S. Toll Free 1-800-345-8889 or Direct 1-505-345-2661 or visit our website at www.megacorpinc.com for more
