HOW TO LOCATE REPAIR PARTS (Con't).
(3) Third. Identify the item on the figure and use the Figure and Item Number Index to find the NSN.
b. When National Stock Number or Part Number is Known:
(1) First. Using the National Stock Number or Part Number Index, find the pertinent National Stock
Number or Part Number. The NSN Index is in National Item Identification Number (NIIN) sequence [see paragraph
F-4.a(l)]. The part numbers in the Part Number Index are listed in ascending alphanumeric sequence (see paragraph
F-4.b). Both indexes
cross-reference you to the
illustration/figure and item number of the
item you are
looking for.
(2) Second. Turn to the figure and item number, verify that the item is the one you're looking for, then
locate the item number in the repair parts list for the figure.
