1. Open switchgear breaker compartment door [H] to its fully opened position.
2. Align lift truck left & right platform guides with switchgear latch openings.
3. Raise platform for easy insertion of platform guides, then lower lift truck until platform guides are fully engaged and
hooked into switchgear compartment cell.
4. Pull back on lift truck to insure platform is fully engaged & level.
5. Grasp lower truck handles [Appendix A, item 10] on both sides of breaker and pull handles inward to unlatch the
breaker from the lift truck platform.
6. Push breaker into breaker compartment, pulling handles inward before front of breaker truck reaches front of switch-
gear frame or damage to cell interlock tabs [Appendix A, item 11] will occur. Interlocks may prevent or restrict inser-
tion (Refer to Page 11 [Interlocks]).
7. Align cell interlock tabs with breaker compartment slots and push handles out to fully engage tabs into slots (breaker
truck will be flush with switchgear frame).
Inside the breaker there are stored energy capacitors that must be discharged prior to removing the
front cover of the breaker. Wait 10 minutes after breaker removal from the cell prior to removing the
front cover of the breaker for the discharging of the storage capacitors to occur.
