A sequence of operations best suited to the particular machine and

to the economy and quality of the work shall be followed. In order to
assure replacement of parts in their proper sequence, adequate identification of parts and accessories shall be accomplished by numbered tags

where complicated drive systems, gear trains, etc. are being handled.
Where match marks have not been made, such match marks shall be made on

mating precision parts and parts shall be reassembled to the marks. Orderly laying out and palletizing of parts and assemblies on greaseproof
paper is recommended to eliminate any possibility of improper assembly
and to assist in inspection.

Type P-3 preservative shall be applied throughout hydraulic sys-

tems. The systems shall be clearly marked with a waterproof tag, or equivalent, which is tightly secured to the machine in a conspicuous location.
The tag shall contain the following information:

CAUTION!
