7. APPLICATION. This TB shall be applied to all AGPUs.
8. MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS.
a. PAINT. The AGPU shall have a final topcoat of CARC paint in accordance with MIL-DTL-53072.
Color shall be SAND 33303 unless otherwise specified by PM AGSE.
b. DATA PLATES. All data plates, decals, and schematic diagrams shall be legible. Replace
questionable items.
c. MODIFICATION WORK ORDERS (MWO). N/A.
d. SEAL AND GASKET LEAKAGE. There shall be no leakage permitted.
Replacement Parts Lists. Locking devices (such as lock washers, lock nut, etc.), gaskets, seals,
pneumatic and engine clamps, and o-rings that are removed shall not be re-used and must be
replaced.
f.
HARDWARE. Hardware shall be replaced if broken. Hardware may be reconditioned/re-used or
equal or greater value hardware substituted if the material is not readily available through the
supply channels as long as material meets all MIL specifications and drawings.
g. CORROSION AND PAINTING (See paragraph 10). New internal items that are replacement
items shall not be repainted. Access doors, covers, panels, and the control box shall only be
disassembled as necessary to facilitate any repair. Damaged and corroded items shall only be
