CAUTION
Always follow safe work practices when lifting the circuit breakers to protect the safety of personnel and
equipment.
Always inspect lifting hook for signs of wear or damage before use.
Do not use a lifting hook that is damaged or worn.
The lifting device (i.e. hoist, wench) should be suitably rated for lifting the circuit breaker load.
LIFTING HOOK:
The lifting hook is specifically designed for general lifting and lowering of the Vacuum circuit breaker, from shipping
pallets or for lifting onto and off of work tables. The lifting hook is not designed to be used for insertion or removal of the
circuit breaker from the switchgear compartment, instead, the use of an appropriate lift truck is required or serious dam-
age to the breaker may occur.
ACCESSORIES
Chain hook:
Attach one lifting hook to each side of the circuit breaker
on lifting hook angle.
NOTE: Lifting angles must be removed before breaker is
inserted into switchgear compartment.

RACKING HANDLE:

into and out of a switchgear enclosure. It is also used to
change the position of the device from the Disconnect,
Test, and Connect positions. Press down on the release
lever (2) and rotate racking handle (2) clockwise to rack in
(toward Connect) and counter clockwise to rack out (from
Connect).
