overload relay and a manually operated
circuit breaker or disconnect switch. The
disconnect switch may either be fusible
or non-fusible. The non-fusible disconnect
switch provides a means of manually
disconnecting the motor from the line.
The circuit breaker or fusible disconnect
switch provides motor branch short-
circuit protection. The overload relay
provides motor protection against
running and stalled motor overload.
The overload relay is provided with a
yellow trip indicator, located to the right
of the reset arm and visible when the
overload relay is tripped.

for ±10% field adjustment of tripping
current, so that it is no longer
necessary to change heaters to
eliminate such problems as nuisance
tripping in hot weather.

5. Oversized power terminals will
accommodate up to 1/0 AWG.

Installation
Before connecting the starter:
1. Remove all packing.
2. Clean magnet mating surfaces
OL relay heater slots
of any dust or foreign matter.
3. Select heaters in accordance with
heater table, which accompanies
each device.
4. Operate movable magnet and
operating arm by pressing on the
nameplate to assure free movement.
5. Mount the starter on a sturdy
vertical support.
6. The overload relay may be reset
manually by depressing and releasing
the reset arm. Overload relays with an
optional normally open contact are
electrically isolated from the normally
closed contact.
7. Provide motor branch circuit protection
in accordance with the National
Electrical Code.
Coil removal
The encapsulated coil is impervious to
moisture, dirt and oil. It resists mechanical
damage and failure due to high humidity.
No tools are required to remove coil.
1. Remove power from device.
2. Press against coil while pulling up
slightly on coil retainers (A—Figure 1)
and move retainers away from coil.
3. Withdraw magnet assembly, coil,
molded cover and movable arm
from device.
