Before operating of the vacuum circuit-breaker, check that
the spring is charged. If the spring is not charged, it can be
charged by means of the charging lever. The spring is fully
charged when the indicator turns to charged spring
(yellow symbol, about 10 operations needed to fully charge
the spring).

operation (optional) it is not necessary to charge
the spring by hand. The motor starts charging the
spring automatically as soon as the auxiliary volta-
ge is switched on.
