Installation & Adjustment Procedures
Preferred Switch Assembly Method:
When insulators are shipped installed on the switch and the switch has been adjusted
at the factory, proceed to
•
Set up bases at ground level on transverse beams. Make sure the base support beams
are level and then secure the switch bases to them so that during adjustment the switch
does not tip over. They are top heavy in most cases after assembly of the insulators.
Take care not to scratch the switch as scratching can cause corona!
Removal of Live Parts
•
Note: The hinge assembly is spring loaded—handle with caution.
Open blade fully
before removing live parts (See
), except for vertical or underhung mounting
switches. For vertical or underhung mounting switches leave the blade in the closed
position when removing. Use a rope or non-metallic strap secured to the strut to lift by
hand
.

OSHA requirements or other regulations may not permit some parts
to be lifted by one man.
