A maintenance record schedules is a set of organized procedures designed to assist the operators in providing economical and effective maintenance for system equipment and structures. This system helps the personnel organize time and budget for a maintenance program. The system also provides a means for anticipating problems and performing minor maintenance routinely to prevent major equipment breakdowns. The Maintenance Summary Form provided with the Manufacturers’ Operation and Maintenance Manual can assist in the development of procedures.
The schedules developed by the Plant Superintendent should be used to prepare work schedules on a daily basis. Each day, personnel should accomplish the scheduled daily work. One day each week should be set aside for weekly work. Therefore, on that day, the personnel will list both daily and weekly maintenance to be performed.
