listed in top-down order. That is, the assemblies which are
part of a component are listed immediately below that com-

listed immediately below that assembly. Each generation
breakdown (components, assemblies, or subassemblies) are
listed in disassembly order or alphabetical order.
(2) Maintenance function. This column indicates the various
maintenance functions allocated to the categories.
