preparation for PT removal

Remove the 4 screws from the PT

Practical: the weight of the PT
support (A) bears on the original
slides, there is no risk of it falling
unexpectedly on removal.
Reminder: the fasteners must be
kept.

Do not forget to remove the earth
bar support angle bracket (C) to
leave the way clear to remove the
PT.
Reminder: the angle bracket (C)

Advice
Slide the LV wires between the
plate and the base.

remove the PT and its base

Allow the weight of the

PT (A) to fall onto the slides.

CAUTION
When the PT support is removed,
mark the position of the initial
screws so as to prevent any
mistakes when installing the new
PT.
