FOREWORD<br />
1. PURPOSE.<br />
The purpose of this manual is to provide information necessary<br />
to prevent or minimize the impact of corrosion on Support<br />
Equipment (SE). This manual is designed to provide basic corrosion<br />
principal, theory, identification, prevention and control<br />
information to enable SE technicians to differentiate between<br />
the different types of corrosion in order to identify the appropriate<br />
temporary repair materials and processes. This technical<br />
order is specific to SE; however, for areas not covered in this<br />
manual, or expanded information on a particular material or<br />
process, technicians or contractors should refer to <strong>TO</strong> 1-1-691,<br />
“<strong>Air</strong>craft Weapon Systems Cleaning and Corrosion Control”.<br />
For additional guidance, refer to <strong>TO</strong> 1-1-8, “Application and<br />
Removal of Organic Coatings, Aerospace and Non-Aerospace<br />
Equipment”, and <strong>TO</strong> 1-1-689, “Avionic Cleaning, and Corrosion<br />
Prevention/Control”.<br />
2. SCOPE.<br />
This manual is designed to provide basic information to be<br />
used by Organizational/Unit, Intermediate, and Depot levels of<br />
maintenance. This manual shall also be used to provide guidance<br />
for corrosion prevention and control activities of contracted<br />
maintenance inspection, repair, and overhaul of SE. If<br />
conflicting instructions occur that pertain to the marking and<br />
painting of USAF SE, the end item manual takes precedence<br />
over this manual. Conflicts in resolving any conflicting materials<br />
and processes application requirements shall be referred to<br />
the <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Force</strong> Corrosion Prevention and Control Office,<br />
AFRL/RXSSR, <strong>Robins</strong> AFB, GA. Conflicts regarding all other<br />
criteria in this manual shall be referred to WR-ALC, <strong>Robins</strong><br />
AFB, GA for resolution.<br />
2.1 Chapter 1 Description. This chapter provides the basic<br />
information needed by SE technicians to accurately identify<br />
the causes, types of corrosion and how to minimize the factors<br />
that cause and accelerate corrosion. This chapter also provides<br />
procedures for the SE technicians to be able to treat corrosion<br />
in the early stages.<br />
2.2 Chapter 2 Description. This chapter establishes the recommended<br />
SE wash cycles based on location; provides a listing<br />
and description of authorized cleaning compounds; and<br />
lists specific cleaning processes for SE.<br />
2.3 Chapter 3 Description. This chapter provides the SE<br />
technician with the coating requirements authorized coating<br />
systems, sealing requirements, and corrosion preventive compound<br />
applications. It also provides the only authorized colors<br />
for USAF SE.<br />
2.4 Chapter 4 Description. This chapter displays authorized<br />
markings and their locations on SE.<br />
2.5 Chapter 5 Description. This chapter covers the materials<br />
and processes for construction and maintenance of Hush<br />
Houses.<br />
2.6 Chapter 6 Description. This chapter covers the materials<br />
and processes for NSS.<br />
2.6A Chapter 7 Description. This chapter covers operations<br />
unique to the Southwest Asia Region.<br />
2.7 Appendix A Description. This appendix provides a list<br />
of consumable material authorized for use on SE.<br />
