After the ground and test device has been
removed from its shipping pallet it may be
rolled on its own wheels on a level surface. This
is the preferred way of handling the ground
and test device. When rolling the ground and
test device it should be pushed and steered by
the steel frame or the front cover.
Do not handle or move the circuit breaker by
the primary disconnecting devices, as damage
may occur.
!
CAUTION
If necessary, the ground and test device can be
moved by a fork lift truck or an overhead crane.
When using a fork lift truck take care to avoid
components located under the circuit breaker
floor pan. The forks on the truck should be set
for a dimension over the forks of 28 inches. The
forks should then ride under the wheel axles.
