The PMCS table lists the checks and services that need to be performed at various intervals. The intervals were determined by crane design and expected use. 1. "Before" or (B) PMCS shall be performed by the operator prior to starting the engine and attempting to operate the crane. 2. "During" or (D) PMCS shall be performed while operating the crane both while sitting in the cab manipulating the controls and when outside the cab doing other tasks associated with operations. 3. "After" or (A) PMCS shall be performed after crane operation and when it is being shut down for a period of time. 4. "Weekly’" or (W) PMCS need not be done every day or every time the crane is operated, but must be done relatively frequently, and not delayed or forgotten. A weekly routine must be established to check and service these items. 5. "Monthly" or (M) PMCS provides checks and services that need not be done weekly but cannot be ignored more than a month. A monthly service routine must be established. 6. There are checks and services that must be done on the basis of the number of hours of engine operation, or based on special environmental conditions. These more frequent checks are marked with an asterisk. An appropriate footnote explains the special service interval. Additional Special Checks and Services Perform weekly (W) as well as before (B) operations PMCS if: 1. You are the assigned operator and have not operated the crane since the last weekly. 2.
