MATERIALS Functional Group of this RPSTL. Part numbers for bulk materials are also referenced in the
DESCRIPTION AND UOC of the line item entry for the item to be manufactured/fabricated. Detailed fab-
rication instructions for the items source coded to be manufactured or fabricated are found in TM

6. HOW TO LOCATE REPAIR PARTS.
6.1. When National Stock Number or Part Number is not known.
6.1.1. First. Using the table of contents, determine the assembly group or subassembly group to which
the item belongs. This is necessary since figures are prepared for assembly groups and subassembly groups,
and listings are divided into the same groups.
6.1.2. Second. Find the figure covering the assembly group or subassembly group to which the item be-
longs.
6.1.3. Third. Identify the item on the figure and use the Figure and Item Number Index to find
the NSN.
6.2. When National Stock Number or Part Number is not known.
6.2.1. First. Using the of 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 4.2.1). The part numbers in the Part Number index are listed in ascending alphanumeric sequence (see
4.3). Both indexes cross-reference you to the illustration/figure and item number of the item you are looking
for.
6.2.2. Second. Turn to the figure and item number, verify that the item is the one you are looking for,
then locate the item number in the repair parts list for the figure.
