way by the use of symbol marks
"3". The meanings of the symbol
marks are given on the next page. 4. A job instruction chart "4" accom-
panies the exploded diagram,
providing the order of jobs, names
of parts, notes in jobs, etc.
5. For jobs requiring more informa- tion, the step-by-step format sup-
plements "5" are given in addition
to the exploded diagram and job
instruction chart.
