CCS-Universal Rod Rating System chart

OK, I'm stumped. I've looked for instructions on how to use the chart and come up empty, and I cannot figure a few things out.

A 3170 grain (205 gram, 82 pennies) blank on the chart on the left column is rated a 10 ERN. If I find 82 pennies on the top horizontal scale I see an orange diagonal line going up to the right, and it's labeled 10 ERN. If I go to 205 grams on that scale I see an orange diagonal line going down to the left, and it's labeled 9 ERN.

I guess I just need a lesson on what the orange lines mean, and what is the right way to find the ERN on say an 85 penny, 212 gram, 3270 grain blank.

thanks in advance. I know there is at least one who can help.

I tried to download the chart, but the link appears to be broken. Does anyone know where I can download the chart?
