Good day folks.

Wondering what this means in the instructions. I would have guessed to drill or open the hole, but that has a different icon in the manual.

Thank you!

Looks to me it's the bridge from some sort of ship kit. Ignore "Bridge" - it's irrelevant. Just pay attention to the icon and follow the instruction where the holes needs to be drilled out as directed in the photo. It's not that hard to figure out.

Well just thinking out loud here. To bridge something means to fill the gap so if the part has these holes then maybe they need filling?

Thank you - everything i have seen points to filling the gaps (has a different icon for drilling/opening holes. The icons legend did not have this one indicated for some reason but this will be noted in case i see it again.

I'd interpret that icon to mean fill the hollow .
I assume those are there for a different kit .

Looks like this is from CHY-NAH. It doesn't make sense in Japanese, so it's gotta be Chinese.
填 means to "fill in" in Japanese. It's not quite the same character as what you see in the picture, but often the characters evolve differently. Also, "bridge" is totally Chinese Engrish. Japanese Engrish is usually misspellings or grammatical errors. Chinese Engrish is that plus a "WTF?" factor.
