3. Remove the lifting brackets from the frame
and attach them to the sides of the recloser.
If you are using a 3SP unit, use the lifting
straps around the individual pole body.
4. Lift the recloser (or the poles if it is a 3SP unit)
over the top of the frame and carefully lower
it into place (see figure 3).
5. Bolt the control cabinet to the cross members
on the side of the substation frame.
6. Ensure that all hardware is securely tightened.
Do not exceed 50 lbs. cantilever force
on any of the terminals in any direction.
Failure to comply will result in permanent
damage to the recloser.
