8. MANUAL LOWERING DEVICE (MACHINE ROOM)

In the event of a power failure, the cab can be moved manually to a lower level
using the following procedure:
1 Obtain the key to unlock the door to the machine room where the elevator
pump unit is located (if applicable).
2 Instruct 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.
3 Switch the main disconnect switch for the main power supply to the
elevator pump unit to the "OFF" position.
4 If equipped, use the owner's key to
unlock the Controller Tank cover. The
EPV Valve is located inside.
5 Locate the RED manual release knob
on the EPV Valve and pull the knob to
lower the cab (refer to Figure 3).
Maintain a constant pull on the knob
until the elevator reaches the lowest
landing and stops automatically.
(Although you may not be able to see
the elevator, this is readily detected;
there will be no further noise as the
oil flows to the reservoir).
6 To exit the cab, open the lower
landing door (using the special key)
and assist the passenger.
7 After the passenger has exited the
cab, remove the cab key. Make sure the landing door is closed, reconnect
the disconnect switch in the machine room, and lock the door.
