Indeed.... "routine maintenance" is considered to be "assumed knowledge" in
regards to workshop manuals. Routine maintenence is covered quite
extensively in owners manual since this is written with the layman in mind.
While Helm does "print" the Ford factory manuals, I do not recall seeing any
sections called "routine maintenance". in the mauals that are drop shipped
to us nor in the online manuals we access on the corporate server.
The owners manual has got to be the worlds most expensive unread book.

All this has sent me to my copy of the 1992 service manual that I bought
from Helm as soon as I could after getting the 92 Explorerer home.
I am the original and current owner of said vehicle.
The first Group is 00 and includes Section 00-03-1 Maintenance and
Lubrication.
Other sections of this group include info on hoisting,jacking and towing;
noise and vibration diagnosis; and roadability diagnosis.
I wonder if this is what the OP was looking for.

What my book has is a page titled "Maintenance Schedule, Ranger/Explorer"
and one titled "Owner Maintenance Checks."
