fitting is included with the Oxygen Servicing Unit and

is stored in a hinged front end cover (1) which also

provides the means for stowing (by coiling) the long

filler line. Leading particulars of the Oxygen Ser-

vicing Unit are included in Table 1-1.

should be protected in the same manner when not in

use. In addition, when not in use, the filler line and

the oxygen service fitting should be stowed in the

stowage cover in the places provided therein.
