Explanation:
no idea what "same text" refers to, I take it this is about a caburettor or something... "chicle(r)" being a Gallicism for "surtidor"

Yes, that is exactly what I found and used in the end (calibrated nozzles). "Same text" was because I posted two questions together (one just before this one) and I explained in the other question what the topic was.. after that the other one was answered and I graded it without a second thought.. sorry! Just so you now: the text was the mounting instructions of a "diluter", a machine used to dilute concentrated cleaning prodocts (ammonia etc.) Thanks a lot for your help, hanna

different gum packages


Explanation:
Is this about setting up a vending machine? "Place the different gum packages in the display window in the same order as the buttons, taking into account the placement of the gum products"
