The Chapter - Section (i.e. - 28-40-00) numbering system explained above forms the primary page
numbering system for this manual. Within each Section, pages are numbered consecutively beginning
with Page 1 (i.e. - 28-40-00, Page 1).
7. Aerofiche Effectivity
A. The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) have developed specifications for
microfiche reproduction of aircraft publications. The information compiled in this Aerofiche
Maintenance Manual will be kept current by revisions distributed periodically. These revisions will
supersede all previous revisions and will be complete Aerofiche card replacements and shall
supersede Aerofiche cards of the same number in the set. The “Aerofiche Effectivity” page at the
front of this manual lists the current revision for each card in this set.
B. Conversion of Aerofiche alpha/numeric grid code numbers:
First number is the Aerofiche card number.
Letter is the horizontal row reference per card
Second number is the vertical column reference per card.
Example: 2J16 = Aerofiche card number two, row J, column 16.
C. To aid in locating information, the following is provided at the beginning of each aerofiche card:
(1) A complete Introduction containing the Chapter/Section Index Guide for all fiche in this set.
(2) A complete subject Index for all fiche in this set.
8. Identifying Revised Material
A revision to a page is defined as any change to the printed matter that existed previously.
Revisions, additions and deletions are identified by a vertical line (i. e. - change bar) along the left-
hand margin of the page opposite only that portion of the printed matter that was changed.
A change bar in the left-hand margin opposite the footer (i.e. - chapter/section/subject, page
number and date), indicates that the text was unchanged but the material was relocated to a
different page.
Example.
NOTE: Change bars are not used in the title pages, list of effective pages, or index. Likewise, all
change bars are removed when a publication is completely revised (i.e. - reissued).
9. Indexing
An alphabetically arranged Subject Index follows this introduction to assist the user in locating desired
information. In addition, each System/Chapter begins with an individual Table of Contents.
10. List of Effective Pages
Each System/Chapter has a List of Effective Pages preceding the Table of Contents to identify the
effective revision date for each page in that chapter.
11. Warnings, Cautions and Notes
These adjuncts to the text are used to highlight or emphasize important points when necessary.
WARNINGS call attention to use of materials, processes, methods, procedures or limits which must be
followed precisely to avoid injury or death to persons. CAUTIONS call attention to methods and
procedures which must be followed to avoid damage to equipment. NOTES call attention to methods
which make the job easier. Warnings and Cautions precede and Notes follow the text to which they
apply.
