Here's another one of those forms that is used for more than onc thing. (But, this form isn't used for aircraft.) It is used to keep a record of components that are replaced. You keep a record of serially numbered items and those that a re capable of operating separately. Examples are engines, transmissions, compressors, winches, etc. You also use the 2408·10 as an index when you keep several equipment logs in one binder. The third use of the form is to keep a record of missile components and reo placements. The 2408·10 becomes a permanent part of the log book when it's used as an index or as a component replacement record.

When used for equipment (other t han Army aircraft), the maintenance supervisor transcribes the faults from DA Form 2404 to the 2408·14. Not only do the known uncorrected fauies on equipmenc get transcribed from the 2404 co the 2408·14, but also minor replacement shortages which may have been shortages for some time. ~CJ CI 0 CJ CJ ~'I08 .Jf)

T his form is used by the operator when doing rou tine prevencive maintenance inspections, and by any inspectOr of the equipment at any echelon. The DA Form 2408·14 is kept 6 months after the last entry is made in column f. After that you destroy it.

DA Form 2409 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE ~ LOG (Consolidated)If you've used this single card log before, then you're in good shape. The form hasn't been changed. It still can be used as ~ insert in the log book to cover items included in a major combination. Or, ie can be used as a separate log for such icems as medical equipment, eee.

Para 4·26 of TM 38·750 te lls you which items of equipment need the 2409 In SEmON A- GENERAL you have FSN; model number; serial number; location (this should be in pencil so that rt can be changed when the item is moved); frequency of maintenance inspections (weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually, etc.l called for in the tech pubs; nome of the item; life expectancy of the item when known lif unknown put that down) ; dote item will be permanently withdrawn from service (odd the life expectancy, in years, to the "dote put in service") (if unknown. soy so) , 43

Pul down the number of the organizational TM, ports manual, etc., that apply to the inspection and maintenance of the item (you don" hove to list the MWO's in the block). You also indude the nome of the manufacturer, and the dote item was accepted. If unknown, put it down. The (ost of the item goes there too jf if applies. If it doe~n ' t put N/ A. SECTIO N B- MAINTENANCE INIPECTION RECORO Put down the day, month and year the scheduled maintenance inspection or service was (ornpleted.

SECTION C- REPAIR ANO COlT RECORO

All required MWO's applying to the equipment will be recorded by the owning organization. When on officiol MWO is received it will be recorded regardless of the echelon responsible for applying the modification. If this Section D (Modification Record) is filled, then you can attach a DA Form 2408-5, Equipment Modification Record, to the 2409 and put down the info. You enter the MWO number, dote of MWO, symbol "U" for urgent or "N" for normo! (whichever applies), echelon responsible for applying the MWO, MWO kit number or title-. The dote the MWO was finished, the actual manhours it took to apply MWO, and the nome of the organization applying the MWO will be entered by the man who completes or checks the work. He will also sign his nome to show the job's been finished. Be sure you also report accomplishment of the MWO on the DA Form 2407. If you fill up all the space in Section B or (, you can use another 2409 to continue it on. Fill in the heading and then at the boHom of the form mark "Continuation Log." the two I

There's very little [hat you have to worry with as far as calibration of fire control equipment in combat vehicles is concerned. \X'hen you run into tcouble with any of the fire control items, you send out an 50S on a DA Form 2407 to your support maintenance (unless it's something minor that you're authorized to take care of by your TM). So, do yourself, your equipment, and your -support people a favor by not trying CO work on items which you're supposed co keep your "hands off."

AMMO RECORDS - COMBAT VEHICLES You're not going to have much trouble when it comes to filling in forms for ammo in your tanks-because there shouldn't he tOO many-yoll have the \Veapons Record Data, DA Form 2408-4. Most of the forms for ammo, such as the DA Form 2415 , Ammunition Condition Report, and DA Form 2407, which is used as an Equipment Improvement Recommendation, are usually filled in by higher echelon. It's up to your CO to say what reports will be made on ammo. \Vhen ammo doesn't fire the way it's supposed to (malfunction), then it is reported in accordance with AR 700-l300-8.

Equipment in this class include all major items that fall in the 300000 primary equipment category.
