A. Job Set-up
   (1) Make sure that the ACCESS PLATFORM 4M (13 FT)-ADJUSTABLE is in position below the applicable emergency exit door.
   (2) Open (but not fully) the applicable emergency exit door as necessary AMM 52-22-00-010-001.
   (3) Do the special precautions before maintenance on the door damper and emergency operation cylinder (referred to as door damper) AMM 52-22-00-860-003.

C. Leak Test of the Door Damper
   (1) Charge the pressure accumulator of the door damper with the correct pressure AMM 52-22-00-614-002.
   (2) Apply a solution of OXYGEN LEAK DETECTION or a WATER - SOAPY SOLUTION to the subsequent components to find an air leak:
  • between the striker housing and the housing assy (leak point 1)
  • on the charging valve (leak point 2)
  • between the pressure gage and the bottle assembly (leak point 3)
  • on the vent hole of the bottle assembly (leak point 5)
  • between the charging valve and the bottle assembly (leak point 6)
4. Fault Isolation
WARNING: BEFORE YOU START WORK ON THE DOOR MAKE SURE THAT: - THE SLIDE CONTROL HANDLE IS IN THE DISARMED POSITION WITH THE SAFETY PIN INSTALLED. - THE PERCUSSION LEVER OF THE DOOR DAMPER CYLINDER IS IN THE DISARMED POSITION WITH THE SAFETY PIN INSTALLED.

A. If you find a sign of nitrogen leaks (bubbles), continue as follows:
   (1) If you find a leak on leak point 3:
  • TORQUE the pressure filling valve to between 3.15 and 2.85 m.daN (23.23 and 21.02 lbf.ft ) T.
     (a) If there are bubbles again:
   (2) If you find a leak on leak point 2:
  • TORQUE the charging valve nut to between 1.1 and 0.9 m.daN (97.35 and 79.65 lbf.in ) T.
     (a) If there are bubbles:
   (3) If you find a leak on leak point 4:
   (4) If you find a leak on leak point 5:
   (5) If you find a leak on leak point 6:

B. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
   (1) Make sure that the work area is clean and clear of tools and other items.
   (2) Do the special precautions after maintenance on the door damper AMM 52-22-00-860-004.
   (3) Close the applicable door AMM 52-22-00-410-001.
