MAINTENANCE EVERY THREE MONTHS
Check there is no clearance, mechanical parts not correctly secured and/or bent and no
parts/components desoldered;
Check the integrity of the structural profiles;
Check correct operation of the emergency descent valve.
Take the cage to a height and execute an “emergency descent”, as shown in the relative section
of this manual.
Hydraulic Oil
Check the level of hydraulic oil and top-up, if necessary.
Refer to the specifications described in the relative paragraph for information regarding hydraulic
oil checks and top-up;
Check the hydraulic oil piping and make sure there are no leaks;
Battery check (if applicable)
Periodically check for any corrosion and tightening of the terminals and any acid top-ups required
in the battery (if a lead/acid type).
Check the cage and the entrance doors
Correct blocking of the cage and entrance doors operating correctly.
Check the controls present in the cage and on the ground
(if applicable)
Controls secured, legible signs, main power supply operable selection switch, emergency stop
switch in a reset position and legible control signs;
Check lubrication and wear of the lifting chains
When restoring lubrication, make sure the chains are not dirty or soiled with mud, rubble, ice or
other foreign matter. Clean the chains thoroughly before lubricating them.
The lifting chains must be lubricated with the extendable structure completely closed, by gravity,
from the top, directly on the return wheels (if necessary, temporarily remove the protective cover
to access the chains). For information regarding the wear of chains, refer to “Checks on the lifting
chains”.
Check the wheels for wear
Check there is no debris on the wheels or around them. Check for wear or damage to the tread.
The wheels must be replaced if the edges are worn or the profiles are deformed. If the wheels
have significant damage on tread or sides, immediately assess the severity of the damage before
operating the machine again.
