Preparation
-
Remove truck from the panel, refer to the Access to the Main Circuit Compartments and Removing the circuit breaker from the panel, Installation Manual (GEX2564100SWE-00(NORDICS)).
-
To get access to the fixed contacts behind the shutters, use a shutter lift (Figure 63).
-
Handling of the shutter lift corresponds to that of standard trucks (Evopact HVX and EvoPact UTX).
-
Clean lubrication points using a lint-free cloth; use cleaning agent in case of serious contamination, refer to the Annex.

Lubrication procedure |
---|---|---|
Sliding contact surfaces |
KL |
Clean by means of lint-free cloth; use cleaning agent in case of serious contamination. Apply a thin and uniform film of lubricant. |
All accessible friction points and sliding surfaces |
KL |
Clean lubricating points using a lintfree cloth or a soft paint-brush, if necessary using cleaning agent (use sparingly, just moisten points of lubrication). Apply a thin coat of lubricant (using e.g. a paintbrush). |
Bearings and joints |
FL |
Pour drops of liquid lubricant (oil can, drip feed lubricator) into the bearing gap. Liquid lubricant gets between the bearing surfaces due to the capillary effect. In case of inaccessible lubrication points, use an extension tube or spray. |
