Section 3. Attachment / Removing

Attaching the Remote Racking Operator to the
breaker cassette.

Tool needed
: Regular flat head screwdriver
approximately 8 inch long shank.


Warning:
GE breaker cassettes mounted in AKD-
20 switchgear is equipped with a steel mounting
tube assembly. OEM breaker cassettes are
equipped with a plastic tube for holding the

manual racking tool. PLASTIC TUBES ARE NOT
ACCEPTABLE FOR MOUNTING THE REMOTE

RACKING OPERATOR. The proper mounting tube
assembly is part number 0275B8280G001. If the
cassette has the plastic tube you must order this
part for each cassette and replace the plastic tube
(see page 5 for cassette identification).


1. Attach the Remote Racking Operator to the

Entelliguard G breaker cassette by first
locating the port located to the far right of
the cassette lower facia (see fig. 1). There are
three ports located on the cassette bottom
facia. The other two are for Kirk Locks.

2. Depressing the blue button on the quick lock

pin (1 fig. 2), insert the pin into the Port.
Depressing the button allows the two detent
pins to retract allowing insertion. Align the
hex bit driver with the racking driver port, (2
fig. 2).

3. Insert the bit while at the same time turn the

racking access door screw

clockwise, (3 fig.

3) with the screwdriver.

4. Apply forward pressure to engage and seat

the hex drive bit. If the hex bit wont insert
then the hex male bit is not aligned with the
hex female drive in the cassette. Rotate the
motor shaft exiting the rear of the motor
body until the bit aligns while pushing the
racking operator handle. When they are in
alignment, the Remote Racking Operator will
slide further into the cassette. When the
racking operator is fully inserted you will hear
the detent pins on the Kwik lock shaft click
into the locked position. Pull the racker back
slightly to confirm locked condition.

Before operating the racking operator make

sure you have positioned yourself at least 25
feet away from the breaker. Proceed to
section 4.
