IS 7451 : Part 6 : 2007 : Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines - Part VI : Hand Operated Control Devices - Standard Direction of Motion

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 6) (First Revision) which is identical with ISO 2261 :1994 ‘Reciprocating internal combustion engines - Hand-operated control devices - Standard direction of motion’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization (!S0) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Automotive Primemovers, Transmissions arid Steering Systems and Internal Combustion Engines Sectional Committee and approval of the Transport Engineering Division Council.

This standard was first published in 1974. The first revision has been undertaken due to revision of the base standard as indicated above.

The Sectional Committee decided to align the Indian Standard with the corresponding International Standard wherever feasible and wherever the domestic considerations were not so intense so as to have standards different from the ISO Standards. This decision was taken with a view to upgrade the quality of the products in line with the International Standards.

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
