2. Never try to force a delicate part if stuck. The sticking is probably due to rust and the parts can be loosened by soaking in coal oil or by heating the exterior surfaces with a torch.
3. Be careful in using screw drivers or wrenches not to let them slip and thus ruin the heads of the screw or nut.
4. Insist upon the rule that any part needing repairs be repaired immediately upon arrival in garrison or camp.
5. Never allow a broken part to be stored except for the action of an inspector or survey.
6. Before any article is put away for storage, have it thoroughly inspected and make necessary repairs.
7. See that all articles of your equipment are always marked or stamped with the insignia and the battery number.
8. Hold all members of your organization responsible for any carelessness or negligence in the care of the equipment.
