National Wheel-O-Vator
A Division of ThyssenKrupp Access

Welcome to your
Destiny
National Wheel-O-Vator, a division of ThyssenKrupp Access, would like to thank you for choosing
the Destiny Residential Elevator.
You have purchased one of the finest residential elevator packages available on the market today.
What you should know about your Destiny.
Your Destiny was acquired through a factory trained and authorized dealer. The normal operation
and function of your elevator’s features will be described and demonstrated to you. We recommend
that you obtain a scheduled maintenance agreement from your dealer in order to increase the longev-
ity and reliability of your investment. Scheduled maintenance should be performed every 6 months.
Any warranty claim may be denied due to improperly maintained equipment.
Operating Components:
Elevator Controller: The PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is located in the machine room.
A “Self Diagnostic System” is provided which utilizes diagnostic codes displayed in hall and car
acknowledgement lights to supply information in the event the elevator will not operate.
Drive System: Your elevator is equipped with one of two drive systems. It is either a 1:2 Roped
Hydraulic or a Winding Drum inverter controlled drive.
Car Control Buttons: These buttons are located inside the car on the car operating panel (C.O.P.).
Press and release a floor number in order to move the elevator to the desired floor. The button will
stay lit until it reaches the floor.
Hall Call Buttons: These buttons are located on the outside of each hoistway door. Press and
release the “Call” button to call the elevator to that floor. The button stays lit until the elevator
reaches the floor, then the “Car Here” light will illuminate.
Safety Switches: Car gate switch & hoistway interlocks are provided to monitor the car gate and
hoistway doors to insure they are closed before the car moves in the hoistway.
Emergency Stop Switch: This switch is located on the C.O.P. In case of an emergency, where the
elevator needs to be stopped, the switch should be pulled. By pushing the switch in, the elevator will
resume moving.
Emergency Alarm Button: This button is located on the C.O.P. The button sounds an alarm when
pushed.
Telephone Jack: A telephone jack is provided inside the elevator. Installing a telephone in the car
is required by code for emergency purposes.
