Danger of death or severe injury due to electrical voltage, falling and/or tipping parts as well as dangerous cramped conditions resulting from moving parts. ► Adherence to the following prerequisites and conditions is mandatory. ► Adhere to warning notices. © Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen 2012 2888956/00 EN OILTAP® M, MS/VACUTAP® VM® 11 2 Safety NOTICE Damage to property and the environment! Damage to property and the environment due to electrical voltage, fall- ing and/or tipping parts and leaking oil. ► Adherence to the following prerequisites and conditions is mandatory. ► Adhere to warning notices. Since the diverter switch insert was dimensioned as per IEC 60214-1, it can switch currents of up to twice the value of the rated through current. No tap-change operations may be performed in operating states with higher currents. Examples of such operating states: Inrush current impulses when transformers are switching on Short circuit The rated step voltage may be briefly exceeded by up to 10 % as long as the rated through current is not exceeded. Such an operating state can occur due to overexcitation of the transformer after load shedding, for example. The on-load tap-changer can be operated in the temperature range of the sur- rounding transformer oil of between -25 ° and +105 °C and with overload up to +115 °C in accordance with IEC 60214-1. 12 OILTAP® M, MS/VACUTAP® VM® 2888956/00 EN © Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen 2012 2 Safety 2.2.1 Required minimum height of the oil conservator The height (H) of the oil conservator for the on-load tap-changer is calculated from the upper edge of the on-load tap-changer cover to the oil level in the oil conservator. Oil-filled on-load tap-changer with open oil conservator oil conservator (m) Height (H) of the Installation height (m) above sea level Figure 1 Required minimum height of the oil conservator Figure 2 Transformer with on-load tap-changer, schematic presentation © Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen 2012 2888956/00 EN OILTAP® M, MS/VACUTAP® VM® 13 2 Safety 2.2.2 Maximum height of the oil conservator In addition to the minimum height specified in the previous chapter, the maxi- mum height of the oil conservator must also be observed. The maximum height of the oil conservator for the on-load tap-changer is "minimum height + 5 m". The installation height of the oil conservator must be taken into account when designing pressure relief devices. If the oil conservators for the on-load tap-changer and transformer are at dif- ferent heights, the difference in height between them must be no more than 3 m. Other applications must be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. 2.3 Inappropriate use Use is considered to be inappropriate if the product is used other than as de- scribed in Appropriate use.

The packaging must protect the goods against per- mitted transport stresses such as vibration, knocks and moisture (rain, snow, condensation). The packaging also prevents the packaged goods from moving impermissibly within the packaging. The packaged goods must be prepared for shipment be- fore actually being packed so that the goods can be transported safely, eco- nomically and in accordance with regulations. 4.1.2 Suitability The packaging is suitable for: all common types of transportation stackability - 1000 kg/m2 top surface The packaged goods are packed in a stable wooden crate. This crate ensures that the shipment is secure when in the intended transportation position and that none of its parts touch the loading surface of the means of transport or touch the ground after unloading. The packaged goods are stabilized inside the crate to prevent impermissible changes in position. The sealed packaging surrounds the packaged goods on all sides with a PE foil. The product is protected using desiccant. The PE foil is bonded after the drying agent is added and any remaining air is extracted. This can be seen on the form-fit of the PE foil. 18 OILTAP® M, MS/VACUTAP® VM® 2888956/00 EN © Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen 2012 4 Packaging, transport and storage 4.1.3 Markings The packaging bears a signature with symbols with instructions for safe transport and correct storage. The following symbols apply to the shipment (of non-hazardous goods). Adherence to these symbols is mandatory.

Danger due to tipping or falling load. ► Only trained and appointed persons may select the sling gear and secure the load. ► Do not walk under the hanging load. ► Use means of transport and lifting gear with a carrying capacity of > 500 kg. © Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen 2012 2888956/00 EN OILTAP® M, MS/VACUTAP® VM® 19 4 Packaging, transport and storage NOTICE Damage to packaged goods due to falling and tipping over! Danger of damage due to falling and tipping over! ► Only trained and appointed persons may select the sling gear and secure the load. ► Do not walk under the hanging load. ► Use means of transport and lifting gear with a carrying capacity of > 500 kg. In addition to oscillation and shock stress, jolts must also be expected during transportation. In order to prevent possible damage, avoid dropping, tipping, knocking over and colliding with the product. If a crate falls from a certain height (e.g. when slings tear) or experiences an unbroken fall, damage must be expected regardless of the weight. Every delivered shipment must be checked for the following by the recipient before acceptance (acknowledgment of receipt): Completeness based on the delivery slip External damage of any type. The checks must take place after unloading when the crate or transport con- tainer can be accessed from all sides. If external transport damage is detected on receipt of the shipment, proceed as follows: Immediately record the transport damage found in the shipping docu- ments and have this countersigned by the carrier. In the event of severe damage, total loss or high damage costs, imme- diately notify the sales department at Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen and the relevant insurance company. After identifying damage, do not modify the condition of the shipment fur- ther and retain the packaging material until an inspection decision has been made by the transport company or the insurance company. Record the details of the damage immediately together with the carrier involved. This is essential for any claim for damages! If possible, photograph damage to packaging and packaged goods. This also applies to signs of corrosion on the packaged goods due to moisture inside the packaging (rain, snow, condensation). Be absolutely sure to also check the sealed packaging. 20 OILTAP® M, MS/VACUTAP® VM® 2888956/00 EN © Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen 2012 4 Packaging, transport and storage NOTICE Damage to property! Damage due to damaged sealed packaging! ► If the sealed packaging is damaged, do not under any circumstances in- stall or commission the packaged goods. ► Either dry the packaged goods as per these operating instructions or send them to Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen for drying. Name the damaged parts. When damages are hidden, i.e. damages which are not determined until un- packing after receipt of the shipment, proceed as follows: Make the party responsible for the damage liable as soon as possible by telephone and in writing, and prepare a damage report. Observe the time periods applicable to such actions in the respective country. Inquire about these in good time. With hidden damage, it is very hard to make the transportation company (or other responsible party) liable. Any insurance claims for such damages can only be successful if relevant provisions are expressly included in the insur- ance terms and conditions. 4.3 Storage of shipments 1. Upon receipt of the shipment, immediately remove the dried packaged goods sent by MR from the sealed packaging. 2. Store the packaged goods in dry insulating oil until used. © Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen 2012 2888956/00 EN OILTAP® M, MS/VACUTAP® VM® 21 5 Preparatory work 5 Preparatory work Perform the following work before starting diverter switch insert replacement. 5.1 Safety precautions WARNING!

If the appropriate preparations are made, proper maintenance can be carried out within one day per on-load tap-changer pole. We strongly recommend having maintenance carried out by our Technical Service department. If this route is taken, in addition to the correct perfor- mance of all work, certain components will be upgraded to the latest state of technology or manufacturing status. If maintenance is not carried out by our Technical Service department, please ensure that the personnel who carry out the maintenance are trained by MR or are otherwise suitably qualified to carry out the work. In such cases, we would ask you to forward to us a report on the maintenance performed so we can update our maintenance files. For inquiries about spare parts, please provide the serial number (see name plate on on-load tap- changer head and motor-drive unit) and the number of tap-change operations. 11.2 Maintenance intervals NOTICE Damage to property!
