It can also be used to establish an annual maintenance plan, which if followed, can eliminate or lower the occurrence of many expensive repairs and product failures. It contains information on the proper use of equipment, appliances, and mechanical systems. It also provides environmentally friendly alternatives for common household maintenance.
