ing tracks. Illustration 12 shows some
examples of installation of the electric
uncoupler (including the arrangement
where the electric uncoupler works
with constant un-coupler to unclouple
trains with symmetrical couplers).
Uncouplers should be installed as
shown in the switching tracks, so that
the uncoupled cars do not interfere
with other tracks. Switching and
uncoupling should be done while the
train is moving slowly or stopped. After
uncoupling, the coupler hooks will
return to their original positions.
