a. Dealers that do not electronically transmit their CCR documents - Dealers should continue filling out the paper CCR form being sure to include their dealer code, CCR number, part number, inspection results, case number, & core serial number. This form should be securely attached to the engine to avoid loss of documentation during transit of core. b. Dealers that electronically transmit CCR documents into CMIS system - Dealers no longer have to create an additional paper CCR form. Dealer should tag each
engine with the standard case label required for all cores coming to Corinth. The case label should include the dealer code and case number. The Lafayette case number is 07 and should be in the first two positions of the case number field. The case label should be securely affixed to the engine or engine stand to ensure label does not become separated from the core. Please use a brightly colored label (fluorescent pink for example) similar to the one shown below: c. We recommend all dealers to mark each core with your CCR number, dealer code and case number using a paint pen or permanent marker. This will ensure this
information is available if case label does become damaged or lost in transit.3. SERIAL NUMBER - All CCRs (both paper forms and electronic forms) for 3500 engines should include core serial number. The serial number accurately identifies the specific core to correct CCR within CMIS system.4. DRAIN ALL FLUIDS - Please refer to the Core Acceptance Criteria for 3500 Engines concerning the draining of all
