enter the FTSD shall not be accepted, nor shall high-speed stops be
considered equivalent to exponential slowdown.
B. Install slowdown and normal stopping devices on top of each elevator wholly
enclosed in dust-proof steel casing. Arrange that, as an elevator approaches
a terminal landing, the device causes a roller (noiseless tread mounted on a
moveable arm) to contact a cam in the shaft and operate a stop mechanism
that (automatically) brings the car to a smooth stop at the terminal landing.
Arrange the entire width of roller tread to engage the cam.
B. Provide FTSD to automatically stop an elevator (car and counterweight)
within top and bottom over-travel spaces, independently of buffers and
NTSD. Through-bolt or dowel the final limit switch brackets, after adjusting
