Operating the Auto-Jet
1. Remove padlock and open switch lockbox access cover. (Fig-
ure 12)
2. Remove switch operating handle from storage tube and
place on hex switch-operating shaft (Fig. 13). If provision to
padlock switch in open or closed position is provided (K2 op-
tion), padlock must be removed before access to hex switch-
operating shaft can be accomplished.
If key interlock(s) are provided (Optional), switch may be
locked in the open position.
3. Rotate handle in the direction as indicated to open or close
switch. Verify switch position by observing the switch posi-
tion indicator. (Figure14)
4. Remove handle and return to handle storage tube.
5. Close switch lockbox access cover and padlock.
Caution: Access cover should be padlocked whenever switch-
gear is left unattended.
NOTE: The standard barrier system provides dual purpose
barriers for insertion into the open gap when switch is in the
open position (Figure 14). Should an attempt be made to close
the switch with the DP barriers in the inserted position, the DP
barriers will prevent the switch blades from closing (Figure 15).
Should this occur, turn the switch handle briskly in the direction
required to open the switch. The switch mechanism will latch
and after the DP barriers are removed and returned to the hang-
ing position, the switch may be closed in the normal manner.
