00:00:11,667 --> 00:00:16,458
Typical steps to inspect the equalizer bar damper are as follows:

3
00:00:16,458 --> 00:00:19,917
1. Clean the lower body.

4
00:00:19,917 --> 00:00:26,667
2. Clean all the dampers around the locomotive and return to the first one to begin inspection.

5
00:00:26,667 --> 00:00:34,125
3. Perform a visual inspection of the lower body for clearly formed droplets of hydraulic fluid.

6
00:00:34,125 --> 00:00:42,083
4. Inspect damper mounting bushings for wear, binding, badly eroded, or missing parts.

7
00:00:42,083 --> 00:00:48,500
5. Inspect the structure for cracks, missing sections, or severe beating.
