4) Check the position of the handle interlock with the vacuum contactor in the OFF position. The tab
extending from the interlock should clear the notch in the handle, allowing the handle to be moved freely
between OFF and ON. Ope
rate the contactor on test power and check that there is no binding and that the
contactor is able to reach its full travel in both directions.
The moving joints of all linkages should be occasionally lubricated with a light coat of Toshiba B9 grease.
