RAISED POLE WARNING SWITCH AND INDICATOR
Overview
The raised pole warning switch is a normally closed magnetic switch mounted on
the outer pole. A magnet, mounted on the inside of the inner pole, keeps the switch
contact open when the pole is in the down position (see Diagram 1).
When the light is raised the magnet moves with the inner pole away from the
switch and the contact closes (see Diagram 2).
This completes the electrical circuit to turn on the raised pole warning indicator.
(Refer to the Wiring diagram.)
