Inspect
1. Inspect the shipping container for obvious signs of rough handling and/or external damage incurred
during transportation.
2. Record any observed damage for reporting to the carrier. Ensure all recorded reports and claims include
the order number and name plate information.
3. Remove the banding straps and lift the top cover.
4. Remove all packaging material.
5. Remove all product documentation and store properly.
6. Unscrew the mounting screws that fasten the circuit breaker to the bottom of the shipping palette and
remove the circuit breaker.
Use Lifting Truck
1. Use a lifting truck to lift and mount the assembly so that you can avoid personal injury and damaging the
breaker ( Figure 6).
2. Contact the nearest sales office for availability of a hoisting device.
3. Avoid using hooks and chains since hooks can damage the fascia of the circuit breaker.
