PREPARATION FOR STORAGE AND SHIPMENT
Before placing the LCFH in administrative storage or preparing the system for shipment, current
maintenance services must be applied; defects and failures corrected; and Modification Work Orders
(MWO's) applied. Prepare the system for movement, storage, or shipment as described in Chapter 2.
Placement of equipment in storage. Equipment should be placed in storage for limited periods only,
when a shortage of maintenance capability exists. Items should be mission ready within 24 hours, or
within time factors set by directing authority. During storage periods, maintenance records must be kept
current.
Storage site selection. Covered space is preferred. When sufficient covered space is not available,
priority should be given to items that are most susceptible to deterioration from the elements. Open sites
should be improved hardstand, if available. Unimproved sites should be firm, well-drained locations, free
of excessive vegetation.
