Using the -10 TM's PMCS charts, inspect the final drives weekly for oil leaks, especially at the drain and check plugs. Report any leaks to your mechanic.

While you're at it, take a quick look at the final drive filler cap. Dirt, oil and sand can clog the vent hole on each of the filler caps. When that happens, pressure can build until the final drive seal ruptures.
