00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,667
When visually inspecting the dampers, note the following:

2
00:00:03,667 --> 00:00:12,542
Dirt and oil: Rail operations expose locomotive dampers to dirt, oil, and particulates from outside sources.

3
00:00:12,542 --> 00:00:19,875
The accumulation covering the outer surface of the damper is normal and has no adverse effects on the damper's performance.

4
00:00:19,875 --> 00:00:25,542
The damper’s dust cover and rubber bellow protect the piston rod and rod seals.

5
00:00:25,542 --> 00:00:35,500
Oil leakage: New locomotive dampers will show oil loss during the first service period and, as a result, are suspected of leakage.

6
00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:41,000
In most cases, this is assembly lubricant, which has nothing to do with oil leakage.
