Elevator Maintenance Manual

The elevator maintenance manual is the go-to reference for elevator technicians and contractors who wish to know the in-depth intricacies of elevator maintenance. It is also a book used during technical training in apprenticeship programs as well as exam prep courses for elevator contractors preparing for contractor license exams

This must-have manual has now been updated with references to acceptance and periodic tests of elevators through the ASME A17.1/CSA B44 2016 edition requirements.

This publication is a comprehensive how-to guide that can be used for training classes or home study. In addition to technical material, the manual also presents topics such as: public relations, maintenance safety and control, troubleshooting and general maintenance practices.

It is not intended as a replacement for equipment manufacturers' manuals and service bulletins. It should be used as a guidance and aid in understanding the requirements and manufacturers' instructions. It does not give detailed, step-by-step procedures for replacement, adjustment and settings for the many models and manufacturers of elevators and escalators. However, it does provide information useful in understanding requirements for maintenance.
