Most probably you need to print that page onto regular copy paper. But if the page indicates 170 g/m. then go that way.
After that, look for the parts numbers. Besides them should be an asterisk *, or two **, or whatever other symbol.
Then reference to the top of the page where those asterisks or symbols are, and glue each part to a cardstock with the proper thickness indicated by each symbol. That way each part will result with the proper intended thickness.
