Lifting hook
The lifting hook is designed for general lifting and
lowering of the device, such as for removal from
shipping pallets or for lifting onto and off work
tables. The lifting hook is not designed to be used
for insertion or removal of the circuit breaker from
the switchgear compartment and therefore should
never be used for any such purposes, instead, use
the appropriate optional lift truck.
CAUTION
• Always follow safe work practices when
lifting circuit breaker to protect the
safety of personnel and equipment.
• Always inspect lifting hook for signs of
wear or damage before use.
• Do not use a lifting hook that is damaged
or worn.
• The lifting device (i.E. Hoist, wench) should
be suitably rated for lifting the circuit
breaker load.
• Always refer to fig.6 Below for the proper
installation of the lifting hook.
• The lifting hook is not to be used for
insertion of drawout circuit breakers into
switchgear compartments.
• The lifting hook is not to be used as the
sole means of supportwhen servicing the
circuit breaker.
Fig.2c
Before carrying out any operations, always make
sure that the capacitors are discharged.
To lift and handle the circuit breaker, proceed as
follows (Fig. 2c):
•
use a special lifting tool (1) (not supplied) fitted with
ropes with safety hooks (2);
•
insert the hooks (2) in the supports (3) fixed to the
frame of the circuit breaker and lift. Latch the hooks
(2) into the support holes (3) according to the type
of apparatus (see table);
•
on completion of the operation (and in any case
before putting into service) unhook the lifting tool
(1) and dismantle the supports (3) from the frame.
