IMPORTANT
Ensure that only an Authorized Savaria Dealer installs and services the Savaria™
Eclipse Gearless Residential Elevator. Under no circumstances is anyone other
than a dealer with Savaria training and authorization to install, adjust, service
or modify any mechanical or electrical device on this equipment. Failure to
follow this warning can result in safety system compromises or defeat; this can
result in serious injury or death. Savaria accepts no liability for property
damage, warranty claims or personal injury, including death, in this
circumstance.
Passenger safety is the result of countless details in the equipment’s design,
manufacture, and installation. After installation, reliable operation and
continual safe operation requires regular service and inspection at least twice
per year, or more frequently where usage, environment, or local jurisdiction
requires. As the Owner, you are responsible for ensuring that regular service
and inspections occur in a timely manner.
Refer to this manual for specifications, operating instructions and maintenance
of the Eclipse Gearless Residential Elevator.
Upon completion of installation, the dealer must provide you with the
following information and ensure it is recorded in this manual. In addition,
either the dealer or you must keep any service and/or maintenance records in
the Maintenance Record section of this manual.
WARRANTY
Ensure your Authorized Savaria Dealer provides you with a copy of the
manufacturer’s limited parts warranty and documentation relating to any
Dealer labour warranty.

6 Handrail
A single handrail is mounted on the Cab Operating Panel side of the cab.
7 Emergency light
The cab emergency light remains ON in the event of a main power failure. The
emergency light uses a battery back-up system.

Hall Call buttons are installed at all landings to move
the cab to the landing from which it is being called. An
optional key switch limits the use of the elevator to
authorized persons only.

The Landing Door/Gate lock prevents the movement of
the cab unless the door/gate is in the closed and locked
position. If the door/gate is not completely closed, the
cab will not move.
10 Emergency Battery Operation
In the event of a building power failure, the system is provided with a
temporary power back-up system to allow the elevator to run down to the next
available landing, or to the first floor landing. On resuming normal building
power, the back-up system will go into standby mode and begin automatic
recharging.

4. OPERATION
With large cabs and high capacity jobs of 750 lbs. (341 kg), the
motor may build up heat during repeated operation. We
recommend a duty cycle of 25% for a full load of 750 lbs. (341 kg)
or an empty cab.
For example, a 40-foot travel elevator should take 1 minute for
full travel in which case we recommend 1 minute running up or
down then let it cool off for 3 minutes. Typical loads of 150 to 400
lbs. (68 to 181 kg) on the cab will generate less heat so the cab
can be run more frequently.
Operating from the Landing Controls
1If equipped with a key switch, insert the key into the key switch on the Hall
Call station and turn the key to the ON position.
2Press the Hall Call button once and release. The elevator will automatically
come to your landing.
3Turn the key (if equipped) to the OFF position and remove the key.
4If equipped with a manual landing door, turn the door handle and pull the
door open.
5If equipped with a manual landing gate, slide the gate open and enter the
cab.
6Once inside the cab, close the gate, insert the key (if equipped) into the key
switch on the Cab Operating Panel, and turn the key to the ON position.
When using the landing controls, the cab can only be moved
(called) to the level from which you are calling. When using the
control buttons in the cab, the cab can be moved to any level.
Wheelchair wheels must be locked at all times when the
elevator is moving.

5. EMERGENCY LIGHTING
In the event of a main power failure, the emergency cab lights will turn on
automatically. The cab lights will stay on for approximately 15 seconds. When
the lights go off, press any landing button to turn them on again. If you press

6. MANUAL LOWERING
In the event of a power failure, the emergency cab lights will turn on. Use the
telephone to call for help. An authorized technician ONLY can then use the
manual lowering device to move the elevator to the landing below.
1Instruct the passenger (s) in the elevator to remain calm and stay well back
from the door of the elevator. Ease their concern by telling them your
intentions.
2Switch the main power disconnect switch to the “OFF” position.
3Locate the manual access door and unlock it with the key. Use the manual
lowering device (hand crank) which moves the counterweight assembly in
the up direction thereby lowering the cab until it reaches the landing below.
4Close and lock the manual access door.
5Open the landing door (using the special emergency key) and assist the
passenger(s) to exit the cab.
After use of any emergency function (access key or manual
lowering device), ensure that all doors/gates are secure and
locked. While the emergency function is in use, DO NOT leave the
area unattended.
7. RESET BUTTON PENDANT
In the event that the elevator is not functioning
properly, try resetting the elevator by pressing the star
(asterisk) key on the Reset Button Pendant. If the

8. MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance (performed by your Authorized Savaria Dealer) will keep
your elevator in proper operating condition. Please remember, as the owner of
this elevator, you are responsible for making sure that maintenance and
upkeep are done on a regularly scheduled basis.
If the unit is shut down for an extended period of time, contact
your Authorized Savaria Dealer to perform complete
maintenance before starting up the unit.
IMPORTANT: Please test the phone in your elevator during every maintenance.
If the phone is inactive, please shut down the elevator until the phone line is
active. This applies to all lifts in a hoistway or enclosure models
To ensure proper operating condition of your unit, the items listed below must
be inspected and, if necessary, serviced every six months by your Authorized
Savaria Dealer. Additional inspections may be required depending on usage.
1Tighten all rail and cab fastening bolts.
2Lubricate the door hinges and adjust the door closure if required.
3Lubricate the rails with light grease, such as white lithium.
4For a Gatemate operator, lubricate the shaft and bushing using a general
silicone lubrication spray (lubricate on installation as well).
5Inspect the travelling cable for wear. Replace the cable if any cuts or damage
to the jacket are evident.
6Replace the batteries inside the control panel as indicated on the battery
label.
7Perform the required maintenance to the door locks.
8Activate and test the safety mechanism.
9Check, and if necessary, adjust the motor brake air gap. Refer to the Eclipse
