    S70-200 IOM RWB II ROTARY SCREW COMPRESSOR UNITS Page 30 MAINTENANCE OPERATING LOG The use of an operating log as included in this manual (see Table of Contents) permits thorough analysis of the operation of a refrigeration system by those responsible for its maintenance and servicing. Continual recording of gauge pressures, tempera- tures, and other pertinent information, enables the observer and serviceman to be constantly familiar with the operation of the system and to recognize immediately any deviations from normal operating conditions.
