Symbols &
Conventions
All references to the LEFT or RIGHT are considered to be facing forward, as if driving a pwc
on to the platform. Left is Port side, Right is Starboard side.
Parts are occasionally described as LEFT or RIGHT to identify their opposing construction, not
location on the hoist.
All numbers in brackets [ ] after part names refer to the item numbers on the assembly
illustrations within the manual.
