Installation
Placement
Step 2
At the installation site, remove all separately packaged components shipped
within the pad-mounted gear enclosure, including the steel deflectors. Two-compartment
models are furnished with two large deflectors; four-compartment models are furnished
with four large deflectors and two small deflectors. Set these items aside in a protected
area.
Open the doors to the interior of the gear and secure them with the door holders.
Refer to the catalog dimensional drawing and verify that the enclosure compartments
are positioned correctly for this installation; reposition the gear if necessary. Unbolt the
enclosure from its skid.
The pad-mounted gear enclosure will be bolted directly to the mounting pad using
user-furnished B\,-inch diameter anchor bolts and supplied hardware. Refer to the anchor
bolt detail in Figure 4. Anchor brackets and hold-down clamps must not be used.

CAUTION
To be arc-resistant, the pad-mounted gear enclosure must be securely attached to
the mounting pad in accordance with the anchor bolt plan shown on the catalog
dimensional drawing.
Following the precautions given under “Handling” on page 5, lift the unit a few feet in
the air and caulk along the entire underside of the enclosure bottom flange using room-
temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicon-rubber compound. The RTV is to be applied directly
to the gasket. The enclosure can now be lifted onto the mounting pad and secured fol-
lowing the instructions on page 9.
