For restoration and workshop

When restoring a Chaffee M24, the original documentation decides: torque values, lubricant specifications, adjustment dimensions and test procedures come straight from the original issued by the US Army, not second-hand. The layout-true reconstruction keeps every technical drawing and table in its original position, so page references from forums and literature still hold.
