An optional racking mechanism (installed in the factory, as
a part of the SecoVac VB2+ breaker), can use a motor for
racking the breaker in and out of the compartment. To
completely remove a SecoVac VB2+ circuit breaker, you
must use the provided lift truck.
CAUTION
To avoid possible damage to the racking mechanism, do
not continue to turn the racking handle after the breaker
has reached the “Connect” or “Disconnect/Test”
position.
