KONE MACHINES

Yes, they run HOT. But with the synth oil they should be ok. As far as the elevator in the over head?? If a Miprom 21 MEGATECH. Check the N.T.S or E.T.S. Board and REPLACE the BIFRICATED relays. CHECK THE ENTIRE CONTROLLER FOR LOOSE WIRES!!!!!. Make sure that the slowdown switches are working Via the N.T.S. system. Last, Check or replace the encloder in the machine. The rail mounted position encoder hardly ever goes out. Good luck... (p.s. I have 34 of these same units on service for KONE.
