ASSEMBLY OF THE ROPE OF THE OVERSPEED GOVERNOR/TENSION WEIGHT
WITH HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL COUNTERWEIGHT
A techn cally perfect operat on of the overspeed governor s only poss ble w th a correct assembly of the go-
vernor rope tself and of the tens on we ght w th counterwe ght.
Wh le determ n ng at wh ch he ght the tens on we ght w th counterwe ght has to be mounted, t must be made
clear that:
- n no case, the counterwe ght must touch the floor (fig. 1 and 2), otherw se, the funct on of the overspeed
governor s put out of operat on;
- when the framework of the elevator car reaches ts lowest pos t on (by the compressed buffer), the lower
rope-anchor and the downward rema n ng rope-end must not meet the pulley of the tens on we ght.
• Cut the overspeed governor rope suffic ently and lay t down on the rope pulley of the tens on we ght.
• Supply the first rope-end w th the rope-anchor (fig. 1 and 2) and attach t to the safety gear.
• Let the second p ece of rope drop ns de the elevator shaft.
