lower circuit breaker compartment,
open the compartment door and align
the wheels with the floor pan channels
of the compartment. Verify that the
floor pan channels are free of debris
prior to inserting the circuit breaker.
c. Roll the circuit breaker into the
compartment until the position
interlock bar and roller contacts a
positive stop.
