1.6 Maintainability Design Factor
To reduce maintenance cost and lay time maintainability factors should be introduced into

Whenever practical, configuration of the hardware and its layout in the tug shall be done in
such a way that free and easy access shall be provided to the maintenance personal and their
tools and equipment which are required to perform the repair task.
Care should be taken in providing access to lubrication and checking points. Whenever
practical, the design shall allow to change a malfunctioning component rather than to repair
it on the spot. This of course, requires that the replacement procedure shall be simple and
quick so that lay time of the tug shall be reduced to minimum.
