housing. 

21)   Align the RPR-2 and the Axial Compliant racking adapter with 

the shaft on the racking adapter housing in the cell and connect 

the two together. (Figure C.10)

22)   Connect the amphenol connector from the vertical control box 

into the Vertical Control Box Connector located on the RPR-2. 

(Figure C.11)

C.2   REMOVAL PROCEDURE USING THE RPR-2

1)   Follow the same setup procedures as indicated in Steps 

1 through 26 of Appendix C.1 for the insertion of the GE 

Magneblast.

2)   When the area is clear, depress and hold the remove button 

(black with white arrow) on the pendant. (Figure 4.3)  This will 

initiate the removal process on the RPR-2 unit. The amber light 

on the pendant and on the tower light will illuminate while the 

power circuit breaker is in the removal process.

3)   When the power circuit breaker is in the Remove position, 

the green tower light will illuminate and the amber light on 

the pendant will turn off. This indicates that it is now safe to 

approach the power circuit breaker.

23)   Pull back the “racking handle” in the racking adapter housing 

and latch it to the housing. If needed adjust the handle to 

ensure proper engagement of the clutch handle. (Figure C.12)

24)   Once the clutch handle is pulled back and latched, the green 

tower light will illuminate. If the breaker was inserted, the green 

light will be off and no insertion racking will be allowed.

25)   Engage the foot brake on the RPR-2 truck by stepping down 

on the lever. (Figure 4.6)  Verify that the correct power circuit 

breaker program and the insert direction are selected by 

viewing the LCD screen on the Fusion Controller. (Figure 4.1)

26)   Take the Pendant and move a safe distance away from 

front of the power circuit breaker. (The distance should be 

predetermined through Arc-Flash calculations.)

27)   When the area is clear, depress and hold the insert button 

(white with black arrow) on the pendant. (Figure 4.3)  This will 

initiate the insertion process on the RPR-2 unit. The amber light 

on the pendant and on the tower light will illuminate while the 

power circuit breaker is in the insertion process.

28)   When the power circuit breaker is in the Connect position, the 

red tower light will illuminate and the amber light on the pendant 

will turn off. This indicates that it is now safe to approach the power 

circuit breaker.
