    FINAL MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 1:2 CABLE HYDRAULIC DRIVE SYSTEM The power unit at the base of the HAMPTON has been pre-wired and tested before shipping. Movement of the Hampton in the UP direction is by the pump and motor operation. Movement in the DOWN direction is by gravity pressure causing oil to flow through the down solenoid to the reservoir.
  • Page 34: Manual Lowering

    Visually inspect the hydraulic tubing for any indication of damage during transit or installation. NOTE If it is necessary to "top up" the reservoir, ensure the HAMPTON is at the LOWEST LEVEL to avoid overfilling the reservoir. The oil used is a high-grade hydraulic oil designed for elevator service, a standard grade is #32.
  • Page 35: Oil Collection Feature

    This port may be equipped, if required, with a fitting that will direct the collected oil to a containment reservoir at the base of the HAMPTON where it can easily be removed during normal maintenance. (Fitting, tubing and containment reservoir are not supplied).
