Installation
WARNING: Before beginning this procedure, turn
the breaker sources, and discharge the closing springs.
AVERTISSEMENT: Mettre le disjoncteur à OFF , le débrancher de toutes les sources de tension et déclencher les ressorts de fermeture avant d'entamer cette procédure.
1. Turn the breaker off and discharge the closing spring by depressing the
ON-OFF. Verify that the breaker OFF-ON indicator shows OFF on a green background and that the charge
indicator shows
2. A draw-out and stationary-mounted breaker need not be removed from their enclosures, but be careful that all primary and control power to the breakers are disconnected.
3. Loosen the four #8-32 screws that attach the trim plate to the breaker, if present, and remove the trim plate.
4. Loosen the four screws at the corners of the breaker cover. Operate the charging handle one time and hold it extended to remove the cover from the breaker face, as illustrated in
OFF, disconnect it from all voltage
OFF and ON buttons in the sequence OFF-
DISCHARGED on a white background.

5. Operate the charging handle four more times (for a total of five, one less than the six needed to fully charge the closing spring). If the closing spring does not charge, use the following steps:
a. With a large screwdriver, put pressure on the end of
the closing spring, as shown in
Figure 3 and Figure 4.
b. Maintain pressure with the screwdriver while
operating the charging handle one time.
c. Remove the screwdriver and operate the handle four
more times.
6. Install the spring assembly screw [1] with spacer [2] at the end of the spring assembly, as shown in
5
with the supplied
/32 Allen Wrench tool [6].
Figure 5
7. Release the closing spring by pressing the close de-latch lever with a screwdriver, as shown in
Figure 6. Then press the lever nearest the spring to release the breaker mechanism, as shown in
Figure 8.
8. Using a screwdriver pull the ratchet arm away from the sprocket to allow for the shaft mechanism to rotate freely (
Figure 10). While holding the ratchet arm away from the sprocket, press the spring against the stop block as shown in spring assembly up and out, as shown in
Figure 11, then lift the front end of the
Figure 12.

9. If the Electric Operator is installed on a stationary breaker it must be detached before the Stop Block is replaced. First remove the gray plastic secondary connection piece from the left side of the breaker (
). Remove the two long Phillips screws and external

tooth lock washers from the left side of the Electric Operator (
Figure 22 & Figure 23) with a #3 Phillips
screwdriver.
10. If working on the stationary model, support the Electric Operator with your hand so it does not fall following the next step. Remove the two smaller hex screws and split lock washers from the silver bottom plate that secures the Electric Operator to the assembly walls (
Figure 23). The Electric Operator may now be set-aside without disconnecting the electric snap connections. The Draw­out model only requires that the electric operator be slid
7
to the left slightly allowing for a the bolt on the side of the assembly wall (
/16 wrench to access
Figure 21 &
Figure 22).
11. Remove the front and rear bolts that secure the stop block to the left side of the spring assembly wall (
), and the bolt securing the stop block assembly to the
11
Figure
handle side of the assembly wall (Figure 10). If Electric Operator is installed, then only the front and handle side bolts will need to be removed because the rear bolt will not be installed.
12. Loosen any screws on the front face of the accessories Figure 13) until the screws are fully loosened from the
( housing, and then loosen the ¼-in setscrews located on the side of the shunt trip guide housing (
Figure 14). This will allow the guide housing and accessories to be removed.
13. Using the supplied long bolt (BH HEX SKT the structure as seen in
5
/32 Allen Wrench [6], unscrew the
1
/4-20 X 3.56 SCREW) located on
Figure 15 from the stop block but it is not necessary to fully remove from the Spacer Side Frame Pin tubing with collar that it passes through.
14. Wedge a flat head screwdriver between the spring frame bearing and shaft and then rotate 90 degrees in order to deflect the left side of the spring assembly wall outward ( block (
Figure 16) to allow for the removal of the stop
Figure 17).
15. Discard the currently installed stop block, replace with the new stop block assembly [3], and secure with the three new Bolts with nylon patch [4] with Steel Spring Lock Washers [5] on each to 65 inch-pounds min. For models with the Electric Operator only replace the front and handle side bolts. Ensure that the holes in the new stop block align with the screw holes in the assembly to avoid installing the new stop block incorrectly. Looking at the block with the stop block gasket facing down, there should be three holes on the left side of the stop block and two holes on the right side.
16. Screw in the long bolt as seen in
Figure 15 with a 5/32 Allen Wrench [6] to 90 inch-pounds min., and secure the Shunt Trip guide casing and unit back into place.
17. Align the charging spring back in position, as shown in Figure 8.
18. Operate the breaker-charging handle five times. Remove the spring assembly screw [1] and spacer [2] from the end of the spring.
19. Press on the close de-latch lever with a screwdriver, rotating it clockwise as seen from the handle side of the breaker, as shown in
Figure 19. Then, with another screwdriver, rotate the close de-latch mechanism to release the charging pawl.
20. Rotate the trip de-latch lever fully back against the frame, as shown in
Figure 20, while pressing down on the cradle to release the closing mechanism. While holding the cradle down, rotate the spring forward against the stop block.

21. Replace the Electric Operator if previously removed by securing with the long screws on the left side of the spring assembly wall and the short hex screws on the bottom of the spring assembly (
Figure 23).
22. Operate the charging handle one more time to fully charge the spring, then close and trip the breaker.
23. Operate the charging handle once and hold the handle extended while reinstalling the breaker top cover, as shown in
Figure 2. Tighten the four #10-32 screws to 15
in-lb.
24. Replace the trim plate, if present, and tighten the four #8-32 mounting screws to 20 in-lb.
25. Operate the charging handle until the spring is completely charged. Close and trip the breaker.
26. Return the breaker to operation.
