Step 2 – Installation

Use the following procedure to install the handle operator kit to the circuit breaker. Outline drawings showing the dimensions of the installed operator are found in Figure 7.

1.Push the trip button to place the breaker operating handle in the TRIP position, as illustrated in Figure 3

2.Mount the breaker to the enclosure with two 7/16”spacer [2], one L-bracket [3], two lock washers [4] and two #10-32 x 3-3/4" screws [5], as shown in Figure4. Tighten the screws to 27 - 32 in-lb.

3.Turn the rotary handle in the handle operator assembly [1] to the TRIP position. Mount the operator assembly to the breaker with a grounding cable [6], two 41/64” spacers [7], two #10-32 x 4" screws [8] and two lock washers [4], as shown in Figure5. Tighten the screws to 27 - 32 in-lb.

4.Secure the handle operator assembly [1] to the L bracket [3] with the SEMS screw [9], as shown in Figure 6.

Use the identical procedure to install the horizontalmount rotary handle, as shown in Figure 10.

Step 3 - Handle Operation

Complete the installation of the circuit breaker according to installation instructions DEH40360.

The mechanism operates with a rotary motion from the OFF/RESET position to ON.

In FENRCI/D, when the breaker is ON, the interlock arm prevents the enclosure door from opening. If it is necessary to open the door with the breaker ON, turn the interlock defeat screw clockwise to disengage the interlock arm.

To lock the handle in the OFF position, pull the hasp out of the end of the handle and through the slot in the door ring, as shown in Figure 2. Insert a padlock through the slot in the hasp to prevent the handle from rotating. The locking hasp accepts up to three padlocks with 1/4-inch shanks.
