ber is Unknown:

prepared for functional groups and listings are di-
vided into the same groups.
(2) Second, Find the illustration covering
the functional group to which the item belongs.
(3) Third. Identify the item on the illustra-
tion and note the illustration figure and item num-
ber of the item.
(4) Fourth. Using the Repair Parts Listing,
find the figure and item number noted on the illus-
tration.
b. When National Stock Number or Part Num-
ber is Known:

tional stock number or part number. This index is in
NIIN sequence followed by a list of part numbers in
alphameric sequence, cross-referenced to the illus-
tration figure number and item number.
