GENERAL INFORMATION 0-2
UNIT AND SERIAL NUMBER LOCATIONS
For the convenience of servicemen when writing up
certain business papers such as L.&M .R.'s, Product In­
formation Reports, or reporting product failures in any
way, we are showing the location of the various unit num­
bers. These unit numbers and their prefix or suffix are
necessary on these papers for various reasons - such as
accounting, follow-up on production, etc.
The prefixes on certain units identify the plant in which
the unit was manufactured, and thereby permits proper
follow-up of the plant involved to get corrections made
when necessary.
Always include the prefix in the number.

The combination GVW and serial number plate reveals
the truck GVW rating and serial number. Also included
