compartment and the breaker will be ready to rack in.

the torque bar from inside the handle.
11. Use a blade-type screwdriver in the slot or rack-out-lock of the breaker (Figure 10), and turn it
clockwise (to the right) so that the racking handle shutter opens.
12. While turning the screwdriver to the right with the shutter open, insert the racking tool in the handle
insertion hole so that it engages with the racking mechanism, and remove the screwdriver (Figure
10).
13. Rotating clockwise ~37 turns racks the circuit breaker all the way into the compartment.
14. As the breaker approaches the TEST position, a spring charging motor or undervoltage release if
installed may operate. (~ 9 racking turns).
15. Continue rotating the racking handle clockwise until the position indicator first shows TEST; then
CONNECTED.
16. When approaching the CONNECTED position, more torque for turning the racking handle is normal
as the primary finger clusters engage with the primary bus stabs.
17. At the end of 37 to 37-1/2 rotations, the breaker is in its maximum travel position. At this point the
primary disconnect fingers have completely engaged with the primary bus stabs.
