The motor operated mechanism is designed to open,
close and reset a circuit breaker or switch by remote control. The customer must supply the circuit
breaker or switch, normally ON and OFF push-buttons, external wiring, a control power source, and
all control logic.
The motor operator is hinged for opening to the right.
NOTE: For Automatic Reset Operation a separate
auxiliary contact must be provided by the
customer.

Installation Instructions
INSTALLATION
1. Turn off and lock out all power supplying circuit
breaker and motor operator before installation
or servicing.
2. Attach the circuit breaker to its mounting surface using the mounting hardware supplied with
the motor operator. (See Figures #1 and #2)
ers and switches, the following additional
steps must be performed.
Hazardous voltage.
Will cause death or
severe injury.
T urn off and lock out all power
supplying circuit breaker and
motor operator before installing
or servicing.
2.1 Remove the four shield screws and two lug
shields (A). (See Figure #1)
2.2 For JD6, LD6, JF, & LF Frames, simply
replace the shields with those provided with
the motor operator and discard the shields
which were removed.
2.3 For J6 and L6 Frames, drill or punch out
the two 0.531” diameter knockouts and
replace the shields. (See Figure #1a)
3. With its cover open, attach the motor operator to
the circuit breaker using the spacers (Not used
with F Frame) and screws provided.
(See Figure #2)
4. To reclose cover, move bottom screw hole cover,
align motor operator mechanism rollers and circuit
breaker handle by rotating the lead screw with a
screw driver (to the close cover position as shown
by position indicator located on motor operator
front). Lead screw access hole is at the bottom of
motor operator. (See Figure #2)
