Lifting Circuit Breaker - Eaton MDN-408 Instructions For Installation, Operation And Maintenance

Figure 2-2 Magnum DS Circuit Breaker with Lifting
Yoke Attached

2-4 LIFTING CIRCUIT BREAKER

!
CAUTION
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIFT CIRCUIT BREAKERS
WITH ORDINARY CRANE HOOKS, ROPES, CHAINS
OR OTHER SUCH DEVICES. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THIS CAUTION COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO
VITAL PARTS SUCH AS ARC CHUTES, BARRIERS
AND WIRING OR THE ENTIRE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
To closely examine, install or just become more familiar
with the circuit breaker, carefully lift and place the circuit
breaker on a solid work surface capable of handling the
circuit breaker's weight (Table 2.1) or on the captive
drawout extension rails of the breaker compartment
(Figure 2-2). This is accomplished by using the appro-
priate lifting yoke and lifter. The lifting yoke consists of
two steel hooks specially shaped to hook under the inte-
gral molded lifting handles on both sides of the circuit
breaker (Figure 3-1). Every effort should be made dur-
ing lifting to minimize circuit breaker swing and tilt.
