direction of the weight. Turn it up or down as shown to manually operate the transfer switch. It should operate smoothly without any binding. If it does not, check for shipping damage or construction debris.
3.Return the transfer switch to the Normal position.
Note: If Normal and Emergency connections are
reversed this operation is also reversed.
Now continue to 2 – Voltage Checks on next page.
Position of the transfer switch is indicated here
Read all instructions on the Wiring Diagram and labels affixed to the automatic transfer switch. Note the control features that are provided and review their operation before proceeding.
1 – Manual Operation Test
A maintenance handle is provided on the Transfer Switch for maintenance purposes only. Manual operation of the transfer switch should be checked before it is energized (operated electrically).
