2
00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:09,417
a. Release the come-along or chain rigging.

3
00:00:09,417 --> 00:00:13,417
The suspension link should spring back under the motor lugs.

4
00:00:13,417 --> 00:00:20,417
b. Lower the motor frame until the suspension link is supporting the weight of the traction motor combo.

5
00:00:20,417 --> 00:00:30,875
<b>Note:</b> For AC traction motor combos in positions 1, 2, 5, or 6, the suspension link bracket should be on top of the motor lugs.

6
00:00:30,875 --> 00:00:37,625
c. Insert CAMCAR bolts through the suspension link motor lugs and hand-tighten the nuts.

7
00:00:37,625 --> 00:00:54,333
<b>Note:</b> On generation 1 and 2 steerable trucks only, if the traction motor combo is being installed in positions 1, 2, 5, or 6, verify truck alignment as described in the recommended maintenance publications before tightening the CAMCAR bolts.

8
00:00:54,333 --> 00:01:01,917
<b>Note:</b> It may be necessary to twist the motor nose bracket, using rubber mounts, to align the bolt holes.

9
00:01:01,917 --> 00:01:10,125
<b>Caution:</b> Do NOT replace CAMCAR bolts and nuts or HUCK pins and collars with ordinary fastener bolts and nuts.

10
00:01:10,125 --> 00:01:18,625
Ordinary bolts and nuts may loosen during locomotive operation and cause the traction motor to fail or cause other equipment damage.

11
00:01:18,625 --> 00:01:23,708
Refer to the applicable Parts Bulletin for recommended replacement parts.

12
00:01:23,708 --> 00:01:30,458
