30-Day DS Maintenance Allowances.

(2) The quantitative allowances for organizational level of

maintenance represents one initial prescribed load for a 15-day

period for the number of equipments supported. Units and organiza-

tions authorized additional prescribed loads will multiply the

number of presribed loads authorized by the quantity of repair

parts reflected in the appropriate density column to obtain the

total quantity of repair parts authorized.

(3) Organizational units providing maintenance for more than

100 if these equipments shall determine the total quantity of parts

required by converting the equipment quantity to a decimal factor

by palcing a decimal point before the next to last digit of the

number to indicate hundredths, and multiplying the decimal factor

by the parts quantity authorized in the 51-100 allowance column.

Example, autorized allowance for 51-100 equipments is 12; for 140

equipments multiply 12 by 1.40 or 16.80 rounded off to 17 parts

required.

(4) Subsequent changes to allowances will be limited as

follows: No change in the range of items is authori ed. If addi-

tional items are considered necessary, recommendation should be

forwarded to the U.S. Army

Command for exception

or reversion to the allowance list. Revisions to the range of items

authorized will be made bt the U.S. Army Mobility Equipment Command

based upon engineering experience, demand data, or TAERS information.

(1) The allowance columns are divided Into three subcolumns.

Indicated in each subcolumn, opposite the first appearance of each

item, is the total quantity of items authori ed for the number of

equipments supported. Subsequent appearances of the same item will

have the letters "REF" in the applicable allowance columns. Items

authorized for use as required but not for Initial stockage are

idetification with an asterisk, in the allowance column.

(2) The quantitative allowances for DS level of maintenance

will represent initial stockage for a 30-day period for the number

of equipments supported.

(3) Determination of the total quantity of parts required

for maintenance of more than 100 of these equipments can be accom-

plished by converting the equipment quantity to a decimal factor

by placing a decimal point before the next to last digit of the num-

ber to indicate hundredths, and multlplying the decimal factor by
