Guidelines on the Maintenance and Operation of Elevators
About Maintenance And Operational Management Of An Elevator· To engineers■

Use the lubricant which is specifically designed for Toshibastandard elevator
Otherwise, inadequate lubrication might cause elevator to fall.
The main rope of Toshiba standard elevator is made from strong twisted copper
wires; therefore, the main rope must be lubricated properly.

■

When the main rope is replaced, all of the other ropes must be
replaced
Failures to do so might cause elevator to fall.
You are requested to follow the instructions or procedure of rope replacement
shown at the top of the hoistway strictly. Use the ropes with the same
specifications.
