Figure 3-1 Circuit Breaker Shown Mounted with Ramp 
Still in Shipping Position (VCP-W Only) 

Step 1: 

VCP-WR breakers must be lifted from the 

shipping pallet. Refer to paragraph 3-5 for 
the optional lifting yoke used with an 
overhead lifting device after all shipping 
hardware used to hold the breaker to the 
skid is removed. 

Step 2: 

For VCP-W breakers, remove the vertically 

mounted ramp from the shipping skid and 
place it on the floor next to the skid. It 
should be positioned with the highest part 
of the ramp next to the side of the skid with 
the front of the circuit breaker. 

Step 3: 

Remove the shipping brackets used to hold 

the circuit breaker to the skid. Use the 
same shipping brackets and hardware to 
attach the ramp to the shipping skid. 

Step 4: 

Slowly move the circuit breaker forward and 

down the ramp. Make certain that the 
circuit breaker moves down the ramp 
slowly and straight in line with the ramp. 
Once the circuit breaker is on the floor, it 
can be easily maneuvered via its integral 
wheels.                                                   
VCP-W breakers can also be lifted using the
