lower the cab (refer to Figure 3).
Maintain a constant pull on the knob
until the elevator reaches the lowest
landing and stops automatically.

landing door (using the special key)
and assist the passenger(s).

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. To ensure proper operating
condition of your unit, the items listed below must be inspected and, if
necessary, serviced a minimum of twice per year. 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.
4Inspect the travelling cable for wear. Replace the cable if any cuts or damage
to the jacket are evident.
5Check for any hose/pipe leaks. Replace and/or tighten the fittings to correct
any hydraulic leaks found.
6Check the fluid level of the pump reservoir (with the elevator at its lowest
landing), and fill as required. (Use Grade 32 Hydraulic Oil). There must be at
least 1” inch of oil on the dipstick.

hydraulic cylinder (jack) for any leaks. If necessary, the packing seals may
have to be replaced.
8Replace the batteries inside the control panel as indicated on the battery
label.
9To perform the required maintenance to the door locks, contact your
Authorized Savaria Dealer.
