12. MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance will keep your Orion MRL in proper operating condition.
As the owner of this elevator, you are responsible for making sure that
maintenance and upkeep are done on a regularly scheduled basis.
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.
Elevator maintenance must be performed by an authorized
Savaria dealer every 3 months. Units installed in adverse
environments will require additional maintenance on a monthly
basis.
Be sure to use all elevator safety features as needed (such
as the pit prop, car top prop and car top safety rail) to
ensure your safety during maintenance.
To ensure proper operating condition of your unit, the items listed below must
be inspected and serviced every 3 months by an Authorized Savaria Dealer.
Additional inspections may be required depending on usage.
1 Tighten all rail and cab fastening bolts.
2 Lubricate the counterweight rails with a light grease, such as white lithium.
3 Inspect the traveling cable for wear. Replace if any cuts or damage to the
jacket is evident.
4 Inspect the elevator cables for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
Always replace the safety washers at the swaged end of the cable when
replacing cables. The washers are provided with replacement cables.
5 Inspect the safety washers at the swaged end of the elevator cables. Put the
elevator on slack rope high enough so you can safely get under the elevator.
Activate the manual lowering device so there is enough slack in the rope to
pull the rope with the swag fitting down to view the washer. Replace the
washer if there is any visible damage.
6 Inspect the OSG cables for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
7 Replace the batteries in the control panel as indicated on the battery label.
8 Activate and test the safety mechanism.
9 Check that the phone is functioning properly.
