AND UNDER CONTROL TO AVOID ANY ACCI-
DENTS. THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS A LARGE
DEVICE WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY IF IT IS TIPPED OVER OR PERMITTED TO
ROLL IN AN UNCONTROLLED MANNER.
Step 1: Remove the vertically mounted ramp from the
shipping skid and place it on the floor next to
the skid. It should be positioned with the high-
est part of the ramp next to the side of the skid
with the front of the circuit breaker.
Step 2: Remove the shipping brackets used to hold the
circuit breaker to the skid. Use the same ship-
ping brackets and hardware to attach the ramp
to the shipping skid.
Step 3: Slowly move the circuit breaker forward and
down the ramp. Make certain that the circuit
breaker moves down the ramp slowly and
straight in line with the ramp. Once the circuit
breaker is on the floor, it can be easily maneu-
vered via its integral wheels.
3-4 STORAGE
If the circuit breaker is to be placed in storage, maxi-
mum protection can be obtained by keeping it packed
as shipped. Before placing it in storage, checks should
be made to make sure that the circuit breaker is free
from shipping damage and is in satisfactory operating
condition.
The circuit breaker is shipped with its contacts open and
closing springs discharged. The indicators on the front
panel should confirm this. Insert the maintenance tool in
the manual charge socket opening (Figure 3-7). Charge
the closing springs by pumping the handle up and down
approximately 38 times until a crisp metallic “click” is
heard. This indicates that the closing springs are
charged and is shown by the closing spring “charged”
(yellow) indicator. Remove the maintenance tool. Push
the “manual close” button. The circuit breaker will close
as shown by the circuit breaker contacts “closed” (red)
indicator. Push the “manual trip” button. The circuit
breaker will trip as shown by the circuit breaker contacts
“open” (green) indicator. After completing this initial
