Built-In Parts Book
Progress in industry comes at a rapid pace. In order for the
e n g i n e manufacturer to keep pace with progress he needs a
v e r s a t i l e product for the many models and arrangements of
a c c e s s o r i e s and mounting parts needed to suit a variety of
equipment. In addition, engine refinements and improvements
a r e constantly being introduced. All of this dynamic action
must be documented so that the equipment can be serviced if
and when it's needed. It is fully documented in the manufac-
t u r e r ' s plant and in dealer Parts Departments with Master
F i l e s and adequate supporting records. But, what about YOU
the user of this equipment? You have neither the time nor the
i n c l i n a t i o n to ferret out specific part number data. What is
the answer? - It is Detroit Diesel's exclusive BUILT-IX
PARTS BOOK which is furnished with each engine. It takes
t h e form of an "Option Plate" mounted on the rocker cover
of the engine. With it, ordering parts becomes as simple as
A, B, C. You have merely to provide the Dealer with . . .
A. The "Model" number
B. The "UNIT" number
C. The "TYPE" number
F r o m that much information, the dealer with his complete
r e c o r d s on all engine models, can completely interpret your
p a r t s requirements.
