General Maintenance Instructions
General Maintenance
Your ThyssenKrupp Elevator is the finest piece of equipment
of its type on the market today. It is designed, manufactured
and installed to minimize maintenance. However, mainte-
nance must be provided to prolong the life of your equipment
and protect your investment.
A planned sequential procedure, regularly performed, will
keep your maintenance cost to an absolute minimum and
ensure realization of the long trouble free service the
equipment was designed to deliver. The procedure should
begin the day the elevator goes into service. Cleanliness of
the elevator’s components, machine room and hoistway
cannot be overstressed.
Every precaution should be taken
when servicing any elevator,
whether specifically mentioned here or not. Common
sense precautions should be followed making sure life
and limb of the person servicing the elevator and the pub-
lic is not endangered.
Procedures listed in this manual that involve entering the
hoistway or machine room should only be carried out by
a trained elevator professional. Electrical and mechanical
hazards exist for untrained service personnel who are un-
familiar with this type of equipment.
Make certain ALL voltage is removed before touching any
parts of the electric controller or its peripherals. Due to
the nature of some internal controller power supplies,
voltage may be present on some components after the in-
put power source has been removed. Always check for
voltage with a meter before servicing any component.
When access to the pit or hoistway is necessary, see that
safety measures are used to protect the public as well as
the servicing personnel.
Sliding Guides
1. Check Guide Shoes at regular intervals for condition and
adjustment. Check the clearance between guide shoes
and the guide rails. Sliding shoes should be fitted to the
rail with approximately
1
/
32
” clearance. All bolts holding
the shoes in place should be tight. Check that the bolted
connections on the guide rail and brackets are securely
fastened.
2. For sliding guide shoes, check that guide rails are coated
with a film of approved lubricant (nameplate specified) to
ensure smooth operation. Guide rail lubricators, when
used, are located either at the top of the guide rails or on
the top guide shoes. The level of lubricant should be
checked regularly and refilled when low.
Cabs
1. Visually inspect the cab for burned out lamps, damaged
flooring or carpeting and damage to cab fixtures.
2. Check that all bolted connections on the cab are tight-
ened securely.
3. Ensure that the car sill is clean at all times as trash in the
sill grooves can affect proper door operation.
4. Keep the car push button station clean and dry, as dirt or
moisture can cause electrical problems.
