Scanned with CamScannerALIKRAFT Operating instructions Control equipment with pushbuttons 1. Visually check that the lift way is free from any obstacles. Keep this constantly under observation. 2. Switch on the main ON/OFF switch at the ground landing. 3. Make sure that the maximum permissible load, according to the information on the load plates in the lift, is not exceeded, 4. Close the landing doors and the lift cage doors fully. 5. Depress the button with the symbol for the desired direction of travel. The lift will now start. 6. Depress the "STOP" button at the desired landing. The lift will stop. At top and bottom landings the lift cage will stop automatically due to the limit cams in the mast. ‘Stop next landing equipment If the lift is provided with "stop next landing equipment", depress the button with the symbol for this function just before you have reached the desired landing. The lift cage will then stop automatically at the level at the landing. Automatic floor call system If an “automatic floor call system" is provided with one button for each landing, the button for required landing is pushed. The lift cage then automatically stops at selected landing. When carrying out service and inspection work When it is necessary to operate the lift from the cage roof, in order to carry out service and inspection work, the switch in the electric panel in the lift cage shall be set in the "1" position. The switch then breaks the self holding function of the "Up" and "Down" buttons and the landing control circuits. This means that the lift will stop as soon as the pushbutton is released and that the lift can only be operated from the lift cage. Scanned with CamScannerALIKRAFT If the lift does not start - check: that the main ON/OFF switch at the ground landing is in the "ON* position and that the lift is supplied with electric power. % that no "Emergency Stop Button" is in the depressed position. ¢ that the final limit switch on the machinery or safety plate is in the "ON" position. If the final limit switch is activated ‘Toolkit on car ¢ see heading "Manual cranking’. + that the roof trapdoor and cage doors are fully closed, + that all the landing doors are fully closed. that the "Normal/inspection” switch in the electric cabinet in the cage is in the "Normal" position ¢ that no circuit breaker for control power has tripped out. If the lift still does not start, see the instructions in the section “Electric troubleshooting ", If the lift suddenly stops i the lift has stopped between landings due to a power failure or any electric failure, such as blown fuses, tripped motor, overload protector, etc., it can be manually lowered to the next lower landing for unloading. = Only slide the lift short distances at very low speed in order not to exceed the normal operating speed of the lift. excess speed occurs, the lif's safety device will automatically trip and stop the lift. The safety device must then be reset before the lift can slide again Scanned with CamScannerALIKRAFT Sliding 1. First check applicable items on previous page. 2. Switch off the main ON/OFF switch on the electrical panel 3. Lift the brake lifter on the motor (motors) to allow the cage to slide down to the next landing. IMPORTANT: Only slide short distances with maximum 1/3 of normal operating speed. Stop at least 1 minute every 20 meters (65 ft) so that the brake has time to cool down. When the brake becomes overheated it becomes damaged leading to a deterioration of the brake function. 4. If sliding of the cage is not possible - stay in the cage and call for assistance. WARNING! Do not leave the cage - wait for qualified assistance. AN Centrifugal brake The lift can be provided with a centrifugal brake to prevent accidental tripping of the safety device when going down by gravity. The motor brake can be released mechanically by a lever in the cage to allow the cage to move down. When doing so, the centrifugal brake keeps the preset speed which is lower than the tripping speed. The centrifugal brake tends to become overheated when descending long distances by gravity - stop therefore at least | minute every 50 m (165 ft) and let the brake cool down Scanned with CamScannerManual cranking lf, due to heavy load and poor brake function, the lift has been driven against the final lim cam at the bottom landing so that the power to the driving unit has been cut off, the cage can be cranked back manually to the normal landing level Motor brakes should be checked by trained/authorized service personnel, before the lift is put back into service. Cranking electrically To be carried out by trained service personnel. WARNING! The power must always be cut off by means of the main switch on the electric panel on the lift cage and the final limit switch on the machinery plate, before cranking may be carried out. 1. Remove the inspection cover on the intermediate flange of the brake motor which is most easily accessible, when there are several brake motors. 2. If there is more than one brake motor, lift the brake lifter on the other brake motors and insert the wedge so that the brake or brakes is/are released. IMPORTANT: Use no more than moderate force when inserting the wedge. If excessive force is used when inserting the wedge, the effect may be the opposite due to overturning the magnet housing and locking the brake disc. 3. Insert the lever from the lift too! kit, in the highest accessible hole on the coupling inside the intermediate flange. 4. Pull the lever downwards and lift the motor brake at the same time. The lift cage will move upwards. Reapply the brake between each turn of the crank. Note that cranking can be carried out against one applied brake if the lift cage is unloaded. WARNING!

The difference between the two measured values is the radial play in the safety device shaft. 5. if the radial play is greater than 0.3 mm (.012’), the safety device must be replaced IMPORTANT! Test has to be done before lubrication. Scanned with CamScannerDrop Test To be carried out by trained service personnel. A drop test must be carried out at every new installation. Thereafter a drop test must be carried out at least every 6 months without load and once a year with full load. # the safety device begins to trip or if noise occurs in the safety device during operation, the lift must be taken out of operation immediately and the local ALIKRAFT representative be notified for action. WARNING: No one is allowed in the lift cage during a drop test. Before starting a drop test, make sure that the brakes function properly according to the instructions in the chapter titled: "Service and Maintenance” Electrically powered lifts 1. Set the "Normal/Inspection” switch in the electric pane! in the lift cage into the "Inspection" position. 2. Connect the ALIKRAFT drop test cable to the terminal biock marked "Drop test" in the electric panel in the cage 3. Attach the cable to the cage adjacent to the electric panel and lower the pushbutton box to the bottom landing via the roof trap door. At the same time, check that the cable is suspended in such a way that it cannot be crushed or be obstructed when the drop test is cartied out. 4. Load the cage with full load. Switch on the main ON/OFF switch and run the cage from the ground level up about 10 meters (33 feet) by means of the "I" button on the push button box on the testing cable. 5. Depress the button marked with an arrow symbol and maintain it in the depressed position. This releases the motor brake(s) and the lift cage will drop until it reaches the tripping speed and the safety device is actuated. Release the pushbutton immediately if the safety device does not come into function and stop the lift at least 3 meters (10 feet) above the ground level. The brake(s) are applied when the pushbutton is released. Scanned with CamScannerIf so, start the test from item 4 again. 6. Run the cage up to the next higher landing. 7. Remove the test cable and then try to start the cage in the upward direction The micro switch in the safety device shall, when the safety device has been actuated, prevent the lift from starting when the test cable has been removed. In other words, it must not be possible to start the lift 8. Reset the safety device according to instructions later in this chapter. 9. Reset the "Normal/Inspection" switch in the electric panel to the "Normat" position. Note that if the lift is provided with centritugal brake(s), the weights in the centrifugal brake(s) must be blocked with a blocking too! as illustrated, before the drop test can be carried out. Don't forget to remove the blocking tool(s) before taking the lift into normal operation. If you don't succeed with the drop test, contact nearest ALIKRAFT representative. Calculating the safety device stopping distance The safety device stopping distance can be measured between the end face of the safety device and the end of the indicating pins - measure *L", see figure. Multiply measure "L" with factor 188.5 for safety \ device. IMPORTANT! The safety device must be exchanged if measure "L" is more than 8 mm (.31 in). Scanned with CamScannerResetting the safety device If the safety device trips during normal operation, a careful check must be made of the motor brake(s), transmissions, pinion, rack and all guide and counter rollers by personnel specially trained for this purpose, before the safety device may be reset. The cause of the tripping must be determined and rectified. The safety device may be reset after a drop test, without having to carry out the checks listed above. IMPORTANT : Exchange intervals, see name plate on safety device! The safety device must ALWAYS be reset at the normal lower landing level. Resetting 1. Switch off the final limit switch. 2. Unscrew the bolt (1) and remove the cover (2) 3, Unscrew the bolt (3) 4, Use the sleeve (5) and the cranking lever (4) to back off the nut (7) until the end of the pin (6) is on a level with the end surface of the safety device 5. Insta the bolt (3) and the cover (2) with the bolt (1). 6. Switch on the final limit switch and run the cage about 20 cm upward on the Lift mast to reset the centrifugal weight of the safety device in the neutral position. Make a test run. WARNING: From a safety point of view the safety device must never be dismantled more than is necessary to reset it as described above. For this reason the safety device is sealed.

For example, the erection site, maintenance, previous operational disturbances, etc. The main principles for all forms of troubleshooting in electric systems are presented below. Troubleshooting is carried out wih the aid of a test lamp or voltmeter. We recommend a voltmeter-preferably a universal instrument - for rapid and reliable troubleshooting. WARNING: Danger! High voltage. Work on the electric equipment in the machinery may only be carried out by an authorized electrician or authorized service. personnel 1. Use the circu diagram. This diagram is located in the cage. This shows how the electric equipment should function, and how it is built and connected. |. Check that the stopping circuit is not broken, in other words that thermal relays and phase failure relays have not been actuated and that the limit switches for the safety device, roof trap doors etc. have their contacts closed. Make sure that stop buttons, including buttons on landings, are not in the depressed position. When the stopping circuit is unbroken, the main contactor if any shall be in the "ON" position ii, Check that the end position switches for "Up" and "Down" respectively function as intended 2. Connect the voltmeteritest lamp between the zero terminals and the terminal as indicated on the circuit diagram, and check that power is supplied where it should be supplied. Go through each terminal, one by one, and work methodically so that the circuits which function correctly can be eliminated and the fault can be localized Scanned with CamScanner8. Begin at the bottom landing by checking that power is supplied on all three phases of the incoming main voltage. 4. Check that the outgoing lift cable receives power when the main switch is ‘switched on. 5. Now begin troubleshooting in the lift cage by checking that the power reaches the cage. 6. Check in the equipment panel to ensure that power occurs on all three phases of the incoming cable from the ground landing. 7. Check that the "Up" and "Down" pulses from the push buttons and control devices reaches the electric panel in the cage in the intended manner. 8, Make a trial run and check that the coil on the relevant contactor (Up, Down) receives power and that it is actuated. Check also that the brake contactor is actuated and that the brake coil is energized so that the brake releases. 9. If the fault does not ocour in the lift operating system but in its lighting or signal system, carry out fault-tracing in a manner similar to that described above, in other words check the circuits methodically one by one until you have nesrowed down the fault and localized it Experience shows that certain fault causes have symptoms which, in tum, may indicate the cause and the probable location of the fault: Scanned with CamScannerALIKRAFT Symptom Probable cause Probable Fault location a) Control fuses blow immediately.

Scanned with CamScannerTone frequency - Signal equipment This equipment is used for transmitting control signals to the lift cage via the power supply cable. The equipment can send 3 signals, A, Band C, from the ground landing to the lift cage. ‘An emergency signal can also be sent from the lift cage to the ground landing The signals usually have the following significance: A= Up, B= Down G = Stop at next landing. hm ereasr I Audible tones are emitted from the units when transmission takes place. These tones are built up of three sub-tones, which are sent with different internal sequences || ||. © --------— depending on which of the signals A, B or C is actuated. The emergency signal tone consists of one single tone only BE eee mroe Fier av 06 The emergency signal is independent of the network and, consequently, also functions in the case of a power failure. Other external alarm equipment can be connected, if so desired, to the terminal marked “EMRG". Scanned with CamScannerIfa fault occurs, check the following: 1. That the transmitter and receiver are supplied with power. The LED marked “PWR' shall be lighted. ¥ not, check the fuse protection and the supply voltage (12V AC or DC). Spare fuses will be found in the tone transmitter. 2. That the transmitter receives control signals. LED's A, Band C are actuated when the inputs receive 110 - 127V AC. 3. That the output signal on the ground/earth cable connection is about 1 - 2V AC during transmission. 4. That the receiver actuates the LED's and relay output switch agree with the transmitter’s input signal. 5. That the circuit between the transmitter and receiver is not broken. Disconnect the lift cable's protective ground from the transmitter. Measure the resistance between the disconnected lift cable's protective ground and its terminal screw. The measuring instrument shat indicate “short-circuit” 6. That the protective ground between the transmitter and receiver is not connected to ground. Disconnect the lft cable's protective ground from both the transmitter and the receiver. Measure the resistance between the lift cable's protective ground and its terminal screw. The measuring instrument shall indicate "open" circuit. Check that the final limit switch is grounded to the electric panel's ground bar with its own conductor. 7. That the emergency transmitter in the receiver actuates the “EMRG" relay in the tone transmitter. Check that the emergency signal is approx. 7V AC on the terminal screw.
