NOTICE
Make sure the surfaces on which the switch
pole bases are mounted are flat and true.
Mounting to an uneven surface can cause
the bases to twist, placing undue strain
on the insulators and throwing the blades
out of alignment, resulting in difficul
ties
operating the switch. Use shims as required.
