BEFORE INSTALLATION
CONNECT FUSE INSIDE ENCLOSURE! THIS WILL ENABLE THE

In a Non-Hazardous environment:
1.
Locate the fuse shipped with your unit and place it aside.
2.
Remove cover bolts securing cover. Firmly grasp the right side of cover and carefully
swing open. Avoid striking cover or devices in cover or neighboring enclosures or
structures. There are 12 bolts securing the cover. This reveals the batteries and fuse
holder.
3.
Install the fuse and check for operation by pressing each of the push buttons on
the switch. Pull each push button out to power off the unit.
4.
To close cover, make sure cover and body joint surfaces are clean and not
scratched

. Swing cover shut. Cover/body bolt holes must match up. Hand start
corner bolts. Fully tighten all cover bolts. If cover bolts are damaged, only replace
with bolts provided by Larson Electronics.
WARNING:
CHANGE FUSES IN THE DE-ENERGIZED STATE ONLY OUTSIDE HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENT.
*
INSPECT AND CLEAN THE MACHINED FLANGE (FLAM PATH) SURFACES OF BOTH THE COVER AND BOX. SURFACES MUST BE SMOOTH,
FREE OF NICKS, SCRATCHES, DIRT OR ANY FOREIGN PARTICLE BUILD UP THAT WOULD PREVENT A PROPER SEAL. SURFACE MUST
SEAT FULLY AGAINST EACH OTHER TO PROVIDE A PROPER EXPLOSION-PROOF JOINT. CLEAN SURFACES BY WIPING WITH A CLEAN,
LINT-FREE CLOTH.
APPLY A LIGHT COAT OF LUBRICANT TO FLANGE SURFACES AND CLOSE THE COVER. INSTALL AND TIGHTEN ALL COVER BOLTS TO 30
FT. LBS. MAKE CERTAIN THAT NO COVER BOLTS ARE OMITTED. USE ONLY THOSE BOLTS SUPPLIED WITH THE ENCLOSURE. CHECK THE
BOLTED JOINT WITH A 0.0015” THICK FEELER GAUGE. THE GAUGE MUST NOT ENTER THE JOINT MORE THAN 1/8” AT ANY POINT.
WARNING:
MISSING BOLTS OR AN IMPROPER JOINT CAN RESULT IN AN EXPLOSION, CREATING A
