3.1.9 General technical content.

3.1.9.1 Standard shop practices and techniques. Mandatory compliance standard shop

practices and techniques available in general maintenance series manuals shall not be included.

When applicable, appropriate reference shall be made to these manuals in accordance with

MIL-DTL-81927.

3.1.9.2 Maintenance level coverage. When one or more levels of maintenance coverage are

presented in a single manual or in a set of manuals, the coverage shall be as directed by the

requiring activity. Maintenance level coverage may be presented as follows:

a. When the end item is provisioned for intermediate level repair, the manual shall contain

complete intermediate maintenance procedures without reference to the depot

maintenance manual for continuation or completion of the procedure. Operator and

organizational level authorized actions shall also be included, e.g., fuse, lamp, or knob

replacement. Other references required shall be prepared in accordance with MIL-DTL-

81927.

b. When the equipment is provisioned for depot level, the manual shall be prepared in support

of depot level maintenance and shall contain complete depot level maintenance

procedures. If intermediate maintenance is authorized, the depot level manual shall

reference the intermediate maintenance procedures.

c. When the equipment is provisioned for repair at both intermediate and depot levels, the

manual may be prepared to support both intermediate and depot level maintenance and

contain complete maintenance procedures.

(1) The differences in maintenance level coverage shall be noted in the text or by separate

WP.

(2) Normally this option will be exercised when either one or both levels of maintenance

covered are limited in scope.

(3) When a few items of SE are not authorized for intermediate level maintenance, the

restriction shall be annotated in the "SE Required" listing.

(4) When the basic SE is not approved at both levels, the coverage shall not be contained

in the same manual.
