Cable Installation-SK

WARNING: Before installing any accessories, turn the
breaker off, disconnect it from all voltage sources, and
discharge the closing springs.

Use the following procedure to first install one end of the
operating cable to the interface mechanism, then the other
end to the breaker operating mechanism.
1. Slide a 5/8-18” hex nut onto the end of the cable with

the #1/4-28 x 1” thread. Install the nut onto the
threaded cable shank beyond the groove at the middle
of the shank. Install a 5/8” lock washer onto the hex
nut. Do not tighten.

2. Place the operating handle in the OFF position. Slide a

washer, a spring, a second washer, and thread two #1/4-
28 hex nuts on #1/4-28 x 1” thread. Ensure the spring
in between the two washers. Set the nuts to 7/16 inches
onto the threaded end of the cable as shown in figure 5.
Rotate the pivot bracket into position as shown in
Figure 1 & Figure 5. Insert the end of the cable through
the pivot bracket, thread two #1/4-28 nuts, and tighten
until it is snug. Insert the groove of the cable into the
slot on the base plate. Tighten the 5/8-18" hex nut
against the cable operating mechanism base plate
assembly until it is snug.

3. Slide a 5/8-18” hex nut over the cable end with the

#1/4-28” thread. Install the nut onto the threaded

cable shank beyond the groove at the middle of the
shank. Install a 5/8” lock washer onto the hex nut.
Thread two #1/4-28” hex nuts approximately 2 ¾”
onto the threaded end of the cable. Rotate the pivot
bracket into position, as shown in Figure 5, and insert
the end of the cable through the pivot bracket. Insert
the groove of the cable into the slot on the base plate.
Tighten the 5/8-18” hex nut against the base plate
flange until snug. With the breaker in the off
position, move the #1/4-28” hex nut upon the cable
shaft against the pivot bracket. Note the position of
the pivot bracket in Figure 5.

4. Verify that the power to the circuit breaker has been

Turned off. Move the operating handle on the circuit
breaker to the ON position. Place the spring over the
cable end. Thread the spring retainer onto the end of
the cable and tighten to the installed height of 3
5/16”. Do not over tighten the retainer.

5. Move the operating handle ON and then OFF. If the

Breaker does not turn ON, then, with the handle in
the OFF position, adjust the #1/4-28” hex nut toward
the pivot bracket until the breaker turns ON.

6. Trip the circuit breaker by pushing the TRIP button

Move the operating handle to the OFF/RESET
Position, then to ON. If the breaker reset, lock both
#1/4-28” hex nuts against the pivot bracket. If the
Breaker does not reset, adjust the # ¼-28 hex nut away
From the pivot bracket until the breaker resets.
