1.1 Check Oil Level in Gears (Interval: 52 weeks)

The oil level must be measured

The tube may become opaque in time. (spares according to spares catalog)

1.2 Check for Leakage (Interval: 52 weeks)

If there is an oil leak clean the whole of the machine with a solvent (e. g. Orol) which removes oil and
then locate leak.

If the leak is through the shaft seal, the rubber sealing lips and shaft should be cleaned with solvent. (do

In this way the oil leak will be interrupted
If this operation is not successful the shaft seal should be changed (see Section 2.1).

1.3 Check Gear Play (104 weeks)

Gear play affects travelling comfort. If, when the lift stops, the driving pulley does not remain still (swinging
effect, especially at half load), or if knocking in the motor torque is observed when changing direction, there

1.3.2 Check axial play (see Section 1.3.1 )

Take empty car to top floor

Switch off main switch

Lower counterweight (GG) to stop (open brake)

Maintain brake open

Turning the wheel, ”lower” the counterweight until slight resistance is observed.

Turn the wheel in the opposite direction and check, while doing this, if the brake drum moves axially.

Only turn the wheel until slight resistance is noted. When doing this the driving pulley should not move.

Repeat this process several times

If the brake drum moves axially then the following measures must be taken:
– W140: Readjust the axial bearing according to Section 2.2
– W125, W125R, W125RL: Change the endless screw bearing in accordance with Section 2.1.

1.3.3 Check backlash (see Figure 1)

Eliminate axial play (In order to control backlash there should be no axial play)

Take the empty car to the highest floor

Disconnect the main switch off

Lower the counterweight (GG) to the stop (open brake)

Maintain the brake open

Turning the wheel, ”lower” the counterweight until slight resistance is noted

Select a reference point (brake linings) and mark the brake drum at the reference point

Turn the wheel in the opposite direction until slight resistance is noted (the driving pulley should not move)

Repeat the process several times

The distance (S) between the reference point and the mark on the brake drum will indicate the extent
of backlash

When there is considerable backlash (see table 1), a new set of wheels or gears should be fitted (notify
superiors).

Return to service by lowering car to floor, level switching on main switch.

Rest the counterweight on the buffer and switch off main switch

Open the brake and turn the wheel in the direction in which the axial play occurs on the side of the axial
bearing (bear in mind the overview 1.3.1)

Unscrew screws 1 , remove retaining plate 2 .

Manually tighten the pressure nut. If necessary, move the nut first (Dismounting of safety ring and brake
disc). Axial play should be between 0.005–0.01 [mm].

Remove the brake shoe shaft after having unscrewed the retaining screw

Remove screw 1 , remove retaining plate 2 .

Remove safety ring 5 ,remove brake drum.

Dismantle adjusting cotter 4 , pressure nut 7 , bearing cover 8 and O–ring seal 6 .

Dismantle axial bearing by unscrewing female hexagonal screws M12.

Assembly:

Grease the new axial bearing 9 well, constantly moving it in alternate directions when fitting (to prevent
it from sticking).

Fit bearing cover 8 with retainer 12 which must be filled with universal grease K 601 420

Clean any grease and oil from sealing flap and mount bearing cover 8 with new flat seal 10

Fit a new O–ring seal 6

Carefully clean pressure nut 7 , grease the thread and clean any oil and grease from the retainer rolling

2.2.2 Replacement of worm shaft seals (Figure 4)

Only the replacement of the worm shaft seal on the brake side is recommended. The instructions given in
to third parties.

2.2.1 can be followed (replacement of axial bearing).

When the worm shaft seal on the motor side has to be replaced, the motor assembly must be dismantled
(wheel, stator, rotor) before removing the retainer 13 of the bearing shell 11 . Before pressing the new re-
tainer 13 , filled with universal oil, into the bearing shell 11 , the sealing lips or flaps and the rolling counter–
surface on the shaft must be free of oil and grease. The motor assembly will be re–assembled by following
the dismantling steps in reverse order.

Press the drive sheave up the shaft end

(Z + L 108 416 device)

Insert the tightening set up to the end

(the tensioning set is supplied ready for fitting straight from the packing box) Tensioning sets which are
dirty or slightly worn should be taken to pieces, cleaned and lightly greased before assembly them.

Tighten screws uniformly, diagonally and in 4 steps:
1. Tighten by hand until a light union is established. (the care taken in this operation will also affect the
precision of the concentric running of the driving pulley).

2. Tighten manually or with a dynamometric wrench to approximately half the torque indicated, 12.5 [Nm].
3. Tighten with dynamometric wrench to full torque

2.3.2 Dismantling
The union of the tensioning set is not automatically retained. Normally, after the last screw is unscrewed, the
union is released.

Note: Before removing the tightening pulley with the device in drawing Z 108 416
the tensioning or set must be removed

the three colored screws, the auxiliary
threads for removing the front pressure
ring will be accessible. By means of these
screws the front pressure ring can be
released and any tightening set which is
deep inside a hub bore can be removed.

The washers which are fitted under the colored screws protect the auxiliary dismounting thread from any pos-
sible damage and should be replaced if repeated dismantling takes place.
