Entellisys Low Voltage Switchgear
Chapter 2. Receiving, Handling, and Storage
Take up the slack in the lifting device very carefully and
manually stabilize the switchgear to prevent it from rotating.
WARNING: Do not stand under switchgear while it is
being moved. Serious injury may occur if the cables or
lifting device fail.
AVERTISSEMENT: Ne vous tenez pas sous le dispositif
de commutation lorsqu’il est bougé. Des blessures graves
peuvent survenir si les câbles ou l’appareil de levage
tombent en panne.
CAUTION: Gently lower the switchgear section onto the
level site location. If the switchgear is roughly handled or
jarred, it is possible to damage or misalign internal
components.
ATTENTION: Abaisser doucement la section du
dispositif de commutation sur l’endroit d’installation
nivelé. Une détérioration ou un désenlignement des
composantes internes sont possibles si le dispositif de
commutation est manipulé grossièrement ou soumis à des
vibrations.
Rollers
If crane facilities are not available, the equipment may be
moved into position by means of construction rollers placed
under the shipping skids. The switchgear may be raised
enough for the placement of rollers by means of a forklift or
jack.
There should never be less than four rollers under the
equipment unless the line-up is less than five feet long. Use
one roller for each 18 inches of equipment length.
Forklifts
When using a forklift to raise the line-up to position rollers
underneath, proceed as follows:
1. Expand forklift tines to their maximum (widest)
extension.
2.
Carefully insert tines of forklift below one side of the
switchgear line-up at the approximate center of the
panel as shown in Fig. 2-4.
NOTE: Do not attempt to lift or move the equipment with
a forklift positioned in the front or rear of the equipment.
NOTE: Ne pas essayer de lever ou bouger cette pièce
d’équipement à l’aide d’un chariot élévateur placé à l’avant
ou à l’amère de celle-ci.
3. Raise equipment and position one roller under the skids
close to the raised end of the line-up.
4.
Carefully lower the gear until it rests on the roller as
shown in Fig. 2-5.
5.
Repeat the lifting process at the other end and place the
appropriate number of rollers under the skids spacing
them evenly across the width of the line-up.

6. Carefully lower the gear until it rests on the rollers
(Fig. 2-6).
NOTE: If shipping skids are removed prior to final
placement of equipment, rollers may only be used to move
the equipment in a direction parallel to the front.
NOTE: Si l’emballage d’expédition a été enlevé avant que
l’équipement ne soit rendu à son emplacement final,
l’utilisation de rouleaux pour bouger l’équipement n’est
permise qu’en direction parallèle à l’avant.
