Regular Maintenance
It is essential that a “Competent Person” maintain this system in a safe manner
at regular intervals.
We would recommend that a monthly interval for an observational check, then
every 3 months to 6 months for more thorough cleaning and checking, then an
annual test.
The “Competent Person” must have had adequate training in theory and
practice together with experience of the equipment in question; to enable a
true assessment of its condition for continued safe operation.
No repairs to this system should be undertaken without the advice and
instruction of the supplier (Atwell International). The advice and instructions
from the supplier must be followed, any deviation may risk the safe operation
of the lift.
No replacement parts other than those specified or supplied by the supplier
(Atwell International) should be used as incompatible parts may risk the safe
operation of the lift. Genuine spares are available within 24 hours at a reasonable
cost, but if they are needed quicker then exact same or equivalent parts may be
sourced locally once the exact specification of those parts has been obtained
and you have suitably assessed the implications of using non standard parts.
If there is any doubt then you should render the lift out of service and contact
Atwell International or one of its appointed agents for assistance.
Safety Note
During any Maintenance work great care must be taken to prevent coming into
contacting any live terminals, if there is any doubt then isolate the device, and
test it with a multimeter to be sure it is not live. Because this controller connects
to external power sources then do not assume that because the fuses are out
there is no potential for electric shock.
