General
Servicing is based on hours run and/or calendar periods expired. The equipment is to be serviced when any of the specified servicing limits is reached. Unit commanders are permitted to reduce the period between services or add servicing operations to meet extraordinary requirements. A scheduled service may be anticipated or delayed within a limit of plus or minus ten percent of the schedule, to meet operational needs and to assist workshop planning.
Fluid Sampling and Analysis
Fluid sampling is used to predict component failure or alleviate the equipment servicing maintenance liability. All systems and components utilizing fluid as a transfer medium or for lubrication are subject to fluid sampling and analysis. Fluid sampling is to be carried out in accordance with the Servicing Schedule and is used as an alternative to replacing fluid. Fluid sampling and analysis (Ref EMEI Engr Equip A 019-1) may be carried out:
- in lieu of when ‘drain’ or ‘replace’ fluid is stated in the relevant equipment servicing table;
- when an internal component fault or failure is suspected; or
- when fluid is suspected of being contaminated.
Table 1 Servicing Schedule
Serial | Period |
---|---|
1 | Daily |
2 | Weekly |
3 | 250 hours |
4 | 500 hours |
5 | 1 000 hours or 24 months |
If an hourly-based service is not carried out within a 24-month period, then a 24- monthly service is to be completed. Where two types of period are expressed (e.g. 1000 hours or 24 months) the service is to be applied at the expiration of the first occurring period. During all servicing procedures, bolts and nuts that require re-tightening or adjusting, which have been assembled using Loctite products, are to have the Loctite renewed.
Warranty
Equipment while under warranty is to be serviced in accordance with the operator’s manuals and the warranty agreement.
Authority
The following personnel are authorized to carry out servicing on the vehicle:
- mechanical systems – ECN 229 (Vehicle Mechanic) or civilian equivalent;

- welding – ECN 235 (Metalsmith) or civilian equivalent; and
- a qualified operator, to carry out general servicing under the supervision of the tradespersons listed above.
Standard Job
- All Standard Jobs are held globally within the MILIS system. Refer to EGI ACM100 and ACM120 for the standard jobs for the Merlo Telehandler. Units are to load the respective MST against their units equipment.
- Standard Job Numbers for the servicing tasks are detailed in Tables 2, 3, and 4.
- Standard Job Number for through-life inspections are as follows:
- Standard variant
- Annual – 7128; and
