Attach a lifting sling to the lifting bracket on the
replacement interrupter. Then carefully lift the interrupter

insulating support column.
Use care to avoid damaging
the exposed coupling.
Step 10
Prepare the replacement interrupter for attachment to the
insulating support column as follows:

connect the operating-rod holding bracket (marked

Figure 7 (left).
(b) Pull the holding bracket to move the operating rod to
its fully open position. See Figure 7 (right).
(c) Remove the connecting pin and pin retaining clip used
to attach the holding bracket to the coupling. Retain
the connecting pin and pin retaining clip for re-use in
Step 11(d), but discard the holding bracket.
