5. CONFORMANCE
CNH Industrial Ag/CE Engineering Standards documents those drawing practices that will result in a
consistent application at all CNH Industrial Ag/CE design operations. This approach furthers a rules-based
verification process and reduces drawing misinterpretation.
To accomplish this task when revising existing standards or creating new ones CNH Industrial Ag/CE
Drawing Standards and Engineering Procedures must:
a) Support a common method when possible
b) Simplify existing practices
c) Define any optional practices as permitted
d) Eliminate or take exception to practices as required
The line and lettering requirements contained in this standard are based on the standards listed in Section
4.1 and represent best practices when creating engineering drawings. ASME Y14.2–2008 - Line
Conventions and Lettering is the primary standard on which this document is based and users must first
look to the latest version of this document when seeking further clarification.
Unless otherwise specified, the content of this document is to be applied to all engineering drawings that
are displayed on a CNH Industrial Ag/CE approved drawing form.
The content of this document is to be applied to all CAD systems used by CNH Industrial Ag/CE Product
Segments when establishing CAD drawing criteria.
In the event that a CAD system is unable to meet the criteria described herein, Engineering Standards
must be contacted before any deviation, substitution or variation is implemented.
All text and references to manual drawings have been removed. Engineering Standards must be
contacted concerning what line conventions and lettering are to be used when creating a non-CAD
drawing.
6. LINE CONVENTIONS
6.1 LINE WIDTHS
6.1.1 Line widths for use on drawings are shown in Figure 1. The actual width of lines is governed by the
size and style of the drawing and the smallest size it will be reduced to when printed. Filling in between
parallel lines must be avoided when printing or viewing. Spacing between parallel lines can be
exaggerated to a maximum of 3 mm and reduced to a minimum of 1.5 mm, so there is no filling in when the
drawing is reproduced.
6.1.2 Although the capabilities and the settings vary from one CAD system to another, every effort must
be made to set the line type and width on the CAD systems as close as possible to the values shown in
Figure 1. Engineering Standards must be contacted prior to any deviation from these values.
6.1.3 All lines of a specific line type (phantom, hidden, etc.) used in a drawing must be of the same width.
6.1.4 Lines must be clean-cut, opaque, uniform and properly spaced for printing and viewing.
DWGA102
Rev C
Page 5 of 17
6.2 VISIBLE LINES
Visible lines are solid lines used to represent part outlines, edges and contours. They are drawn in such a
way that the views they outline clearly stand out on the drawing with a definite contrast between these lines
and other secondary lines. See Figure 1, Line Type 1.
6.3 HIDDEN LINES
Hidden lines consist of short, evenly spaced dashes and are used to show the features of a part that are
hidden as viewed. This applies even when the part is made of transparent materials. See Figure 1, Line
Type 2.
Hidden lines begin and end with a dash in contact with the visible or hidden line from which they start or
end, except when such a dash would form a continuation of a visible line or when a CAD system has
limitations that cannot comply with these requirements. See Figure 3. Dashes should join at corners, and
arcs should start with dashes at tangent points. Hidden lines are to be omitted when their use is not
required for drawing clarity.
6.4 SECTION LINES
Section lines are used to show surfaces cut by a cutting plane. They are drawn as a pattern of straight,
equally spaced, parallel lines that indicate the cut surfaces of an object in section views. See Figure 1,
Line Type 3. For direction and spacing, see CNH Drawing Standard DWGA103 – Views and Sections.
6.5 CENTER LINES
Center lines consist of alternating long dashes and short dashes. The long dashes may vary in length
depending on drawing size. Center lines are used to represent the axis, center points, or center planes of
symmetrical parts and features, bolt circles and paths of motion. Center lines are used to show the
position or alignment of detailed parts in an exploded assembly. See Figure 1, Line Type 4.
Center lines must extend uniformly a short distance beyond the feature or object unless required for
dimensioning or other purposes. They must not terminate at other lines or extend through the space
between views unless used as a projection line for drawing clarity. Center lines must intersect at their
dashed portion and not at the space portion of the line.
6.6 SYMMETRY LINES
Symmetry lines are used to identify a plane of symmetry. The plane of symmetry is identified by placing
two short, parallel lines (symmetry lines) drawn at right angles, crossing a center line near each end and
outside the boundary of the view. See Figure 1, Line Type 5.
Symmetry lines are used when representing partially drawn views and partial sections of symmetrical parts.
See Figure 3. Visible and hidden lines in such views may extend past the center line when drawing clarity
is improved.
DWGA102
Rev C

6.7 DIMENSION LINES, EXTENSION LINES AND LEADER LINES
6.7.1 Dimension lines are used to indicate the extent and direction of dimensions and are terminated with
a basic arrowhead. See Section 8. Arrowheads are drawn within the limits of the dimension line when
possible. When inadequate space is available, the dimension lines and arrowheads may be shown outside
the dimensional limit. The minimum length of a dimension line when arrows are outside the extension line
is 6.5 mm. See Figure 4.
6.7.2 Extension lines are used to indicate the point or line on the drawing to which the dimension applies.
A short gap is left where the extension line joins the object, to distinguish the line from the object contour.
The minimum gap is 1.6 mm. Extension lines extend a short distance beyond the outermost arrowhead.
The minimum extension distance is 3.5 mm.
Extension lines are also used to indicate the extension of a surface to a theoretical point of intersection. In
such cases, the extension lines pass through the point. See Figure 5.
6.7.3 Leader lines are used to direct notes, dimensions, symbols, item numbers or part numbers on the
drawing. A leader line is generally a, straight, inclined line except for a short horizontal portion extending to
the “center height” of the first line in a note, of a dimension, a symbol, item number or part number. The
horizontal portion must not underline the note and it may even be omitted. The minimum distance for the
horizontal portion is 6.5 mm.
A vertical line may be used at the end of the leader line to group information. When the vertical line is
used, the leader line may terminate at any point on the vertical line. The leader line may contain angular
bends or be “jogged” as needed.
The leader line is terminated as follows:

• without an arrowhead or a dot, when ending on a dimension line
• with a dot of at least 1.5 mm in diameter, when they end within the outline of an object
• with an arrowhead, when they end on the outline of an object
• does not display a terminator (dot or arrowhead) when ending at a datum target
Leader lines
• should not cross another leader line
• should not be excessively long
• must not be parallel to adjacent dimension, extension, or section lines
• must not be drawn at small angles to terminating surfaces
• must not be vertical or horizontal
See Figure 6 for examples of leader line termination.
6.8 CUTTING PLANE AND VIEWING PLANE LINES
Cutting plane lines are used to indicate the location of cutting planes for section views. Viewing plane lines
are used to indicate the viewing location and direction of removed orthographic views.
Cutting plane and viewing plane lines consist of alternating long dashes and pairs of short dashes. The
long dashes may vary in length, depending on drawing size. See Figure 1, Line Type 9. The use of a
single reference arrow to indicate viewing direction is not permitted.
DWGA102
Rev C
Page 7 of 17
Cutting plane and viewing plane lines must be drawn to stand out clearly on the drawing. The ends of the
lines are at 90 degrees and are terminated by filled arrowheads to indicate the direction of sight for viewing.
Viewing direction identification letters are located next to the 90-degree bend. See Figure 2.
6.9 BREAK LINES
Break lines are used to shorten the view of a long, uniform or tapered part, or area of a part. They are also
used to break apart when only a partial view is required. They may be used on both detail and assembly
drawings.
For short breaks, the thick, freehand line is recommended. See Figure 1, Line Type 10. See Figure 2 for
an example of a freehand “broken” line style. The “S-curve” style is treated as a form or type of freehand
line style. The “S-curve” break is not only permitted but is recommended for use on cylindrical parts.
For long breaks, thin lines with long dashes, joined by zig-zags, is recommended. See Figure 1, Line Type
11. See Figure 7 for an example of a zig-zag line style.
6.10 PHANTOM LINES
Phantom lines consist of long dashes, separated by pairs of short dashes. The long dashes may vary in
length depending on drawing size. See Figure 1, Line Type 12. Phantom lines are to be started and
ended with long dashes. See Figure 7.
Phantom lines are used to indicate alternate positions of moving parts, relevant positions of adjacent parts,
and repeated details, such as sprocket teeth or spring coils. Phantom lines are used to indicate parting
lines. They are also used for showing machining allowances, features such as bosses and lugs (later
removed) and for piece parts in jigs and fixtures.
Phantom lines are used to indicate a change in part surface contour and to show the bend lines on a flat
pattern of a formed part. It should be noted that a change in part surface contour occurs at the starting and
stopping point for a radii or a bend. These locations are known as tangent edges. In accordance with
CNH DWGA103, tangent edges can be displayed in specific views by means of a “dimmed” solid line.
6.11 STITCH LINES
Stitch lines are used for indicating a sewing or stitching process. They can be a) short dashes and spaces
of equal length or b) dots, about 0.3 mm diameter, spaced 3 mm apart. See Figure 1, Line Type 13 and
14.
6.12 CHAIN LINES
Chain lines are used to indicate a surface or surface zone receiving additional treatment or consideration
within limits specified on the drawing. They may also be used to indicate the location of a projected
tolerance zone. Chain lines consist of alternating lines and short dashes. See Figure 1, Line Type 15
6.13 PROJECTION LINES
Projection lines are lines used to indicate the line of sight between two successive orthographic views.

7. LETTERING
7.1 BASIC REQUIREMENTS
Engineering Standards must be contacted before any deviation, substitution or variation in lettering
is implemented.
7.1.1 Lettering on all engineering drawings must be legible and suitable for easy and rapid execution.
Opaque and well-spaced lettering is required on drawings for printing and viewing.
7.1.2 Vertical lettering must be used on all engineering drawings.
7.1.3 Upper case letters must be used for all lettering on engineering drawings unless lower case letters
are specifically required in which case lower case letters must be used. For example, the metric
abbreviation for millimeter ‘mm’ requires the use of lowercase letters. For other metric units, which require
lower case letters, see CNH Engineering Procedure ENPG100 – SI (Metric) Units.
It should be noted that an item’s description typically comes from Engineering Central and as a result, a
metric unit of measurement in the DESCRIPTION column is always displayed in uppercase letters.
However, a metric unit of measurement is displayed in the UOM column in lowercase letters as needed.
7.1.4 Unless otherwise specified, special emphasis such as filled or bold font, underlining or the use of
italics when applying lettering on engineering drawings is not permitted. For example, bold text is
permitted for specific headings in the title block.
7.1.5 The space between two numerals having a decimal point between them is to be a minimum of two-
thirds the height of the lettering. The beginning of a sentence is to be separated by a space equal to twice
the height of the lettering from the previous one. The vertical space between lines of lettering must be no
more than the height of the lettering and no less than half the height of the lettering. See Figure 8.
7.1.6 When notes are placed as a group or located together, they are to be separated vertically by a
space at least equal to double the height of the character size used, to maintain the identity of each
individual note.
7.1.7 Use of fractions on engineering drawings must be avoided. When used, the division line of a
fraction is to be parallel to the direction in which the dimension reads and separated from the numerals by
a minimum of 1 mm spacing. When fractions occur in thread designations, notes, tables, and lists, the
diagonal division line is used. The numerals in fractions must be the same size as other numerals.
7.1.8 The lettering heights and proportions shown in Figure 8 provide acceptable reproduction for printing
and viewing are to be adhered to as much as possible. Letter heights for various engineering drawing
entities are provided in Table 3.
7.1.9 The lettering font used on engineering drawings must, distinguish the numeral one ‘1’, the upper
case (capital) letter ‘I’, and the lowercase letter ‘L’ from each other. Approved styles for these items are
displayed in Table 1. Roman numerals are not to be used on engineering drawings unless part of copied
text, a specification or an imported graphic.
7.1.10 International or National recognized symbols are permitted on engineering drawings as required.
For example, the degree symbol or the mathematic symbol for an exponent or a copyright symbol may be
displayed as needed. See CNH Drawing Standard DWGA300 – Abbreviations and Symbols for details on
the usage of symbols on engineering drawings.
DWGA102
Rev C
Page 13 of 17
In order to support proper interpretation an appropriate standard or explanatory note must be added to the
drawing when a locally created symbol is applied. For example, the IHR induction-hardening symbol is
documented within CNH Material Specification MAT4040 Induction Hardening.

Lower case ‘L’ l
7.2 SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
7.2.1 Drawing entities such as sections, removed orthographic views, detail views, points and datum’s
are identified by ascribing a unique letter (or letters) to the entity. Table 2 shows the range of letters used
for each entity, as well as those that are not permitted.
7.2.2 The letters “I”, “O”, “Q”, and “X” are not permitted to be used in the applications listed in Table 2
with one exception. The letter “X” may be used to identify a Datum (e.g. Datum X, Y, Z). Since the letters
“I”, “O”, “Q” and “X” are to be omitted, they will not appear as single letters or as part of a double letter
combination. This means combinations such as AI, AO, AQ, AX, BI, BO, BQ, BX, CI, CO, CQ etc. and IA,
IB, thru IX, IY, IZ, OA thru OZ, QA thru QZ and XA thru XZ must not be used.
7.2.3 Each of the entities in Table 2 begins with the letter “A”. Unless specifically exempted all drawing
entities use single letters e.g. A, B, C in alphabetical sequence. After the letter “Z” has been used, the
double letters, AA, BB, CC, etc. are to be applied.
7.2.4 It should be noted that Section and Removed Orthographic Views are categorized as a single
drawing entity. The designated letter (or letters) attached to the two corners of the cutting or viewing plane
as shown in Figure 2 result in a hyphenated combination of the designated characters in the view label for
example SECTION A-A, SECTION AA-AA etc.
These views may be identified with one alphabetical letter sequence regardless of view type (for example
VIEW A-A, SECTION B-B, VIEW C-C, VIEW D-D, SECTION E-E, VIEW F-F) or each view type may have
its own alphabetical letter sequence. (For example VIEW A-A, SECTION A-A, VIEW B-B, VIEW C-C,
SECTION B-B, VIEW D-D).

8. ARROWHEADS
CNH Industrial Ag/CE has defined a basic arrowhead for use when creating dimension lines or for a leader
line that terminates in an arrowhead. The basic arrowhead style is a filled arrowhead whose length is
approximately three times (3X) its height. Basic arrowhead height is set to match the drawing text height
listed in Table 3. See Figure 9. Engineering Standards must be contacted before any deviation,
substitution or variation from the basic arrowhead is implemented.
Cutting and viewing direction arrowheads are at a minimum two (2X) the size of the basic arrowhead. The
2X arrowhead is also used for directional arrowheads. For example, grain direction on a flat view.
See Figure 10.
DWGA102
Rev C
Page 16 of 17
A double basic arrowhead is permitted in those instances when a foreshortened dimension is displayed on
the drawing. See Figure 11.
