You and your inspector Can make one swell team. All it takes to get this team working together is a little understanding and respect for the other guy's job. • In other words, when it comes to your equipment, put yourself in your inspector's shoes. Ask yourself, "Now if I was an inspector,

One more thing. When you put yourself in your inspector's shoes, remember that he's not interested in "spit-and-polish." Of course, the equipment should be clean ... that's only part of good maintenance. But, never replace a part just because it looks a bit worn. Ask yourself:

which things on this truck (or tank or bulldozer, or aircraft, etc.) would I want to be 100 percent? What are the things that count?" That TM of yours can be a great help in finding these things out. And any time you get stuck, call your support unit. They'll sure be happy to give you a hand.

One more thing. When you put yourself in your inspector's shoes remember that he's not interested in "spit-and·polish." Of course the equipment should be clean .. : that's only part of good maintenance. But, never replace a part just because It looks a bit worn. Ask yourself:

"Does this part have more life in it?" "Will it affect safety?" If the answer to the first question is "Yes," and the answer to the second question is "No," leave that part be. In the long run your inspections will get easier and you'll not be wasting a lot of effort on maintenance work your equipment does not need.
