Preliminary comments


Explanation:
a תחולה is an inception or introduction. 'Preliminary' can be interchanged with 'Introductory' and 'Comments' with 'Notes'; the main idea is that the reader is informed that there is some information that must be read before commencing this activity.

disagree  Ron Armon: תחולה comes from חל as in חל על דבר מה = "is in effect" or "encorporates under it's scope"

Explanation:
This is my take on the full sentence:
See notes that apply to Rule 8.

But why
הערות תחולה
and not
הערות תחולות ?
What am I missing there?
Thanks!

Notes to answerer
Asker: It is הערות תחולה; I can't change what appears in the source print!


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Ron Armon: It is הערות תחולה because it's הערות (של/לגבי) תחולה and not הערות (אשר הן) תחולות or perhapse ירוקות או אדומות... :-)

Applicability remarks / comments


Explanation:
I believe that's hitting the nail on it's head...
Your term means:
הערות לגבי (מקרים/מצבים/מקומות...) שעליהם *חלה* תקנה 8

להחיל = to apply (among others)
In context I think Applicability = ישימות, תאימות, תחולה
