3 SAFETY
3.1 General safety precautions

‒ The installation method in KONE installation instructions is designed to make sure that
the installation process is safe. Possible differences between the method and local safety
regulations must be considered. Local method statement and risk assessment must
support any local variations to the method. Follow the installation method. To prevent
potentially dangerous situations which you have not considered, do not skip any step.

NOTE:
Warning signs highlight possible hazards.
‒ Follow your national lift codes and other safety-related regulations.

NOTE:
If there is conflict between the code and this instruction, rely on your national code.
‒ Follow the local KONE unit safety codes and rules, including installation work in the
elevator shaft and on the car roof. For safety instructions regarding working in the
elevator shaft, see also AM-01.03.010, Elevator Installation - Safety Manual.
‒ Installation work is allowed only for competent and qualified personnel.
Make sure that you have adequate information to do the work and fully understand all
the possible effects of your actions.
- IF IN DOUBT - ASK.
Talk to your supervisor if you have any doubts about the working method or safety-related
issues.
‒ Personal protective equipment must be available and used, inspected and certified as
required.
‒ Use only approved manual handling techniques.
‒ Do not work at different levels within the same / adjacent elevator shaft enclosures.
The elevator cars must be at the same level all the time, or holes between the elevator
shafts must be closed. If there is a risk of falling, use a safety harness, restraint system,
or a temporary elevator car top extension to prevent falling. Follow the locally created
and risk assessed method statement.
‒ Always position the elevator car to a safe level relative to landing before accessing or
egressing.
‒ NEVER WORK UNDER A SUSPENDED LOAD! Make sure that the lifting equipment is
correctly rated for the task, in good condition, inspected and certified as required.
‒ A site specific and risk assessed lifting and transportation plan must be available and
followed.
‒ Check the condition of all tools before taking them into use.

Installation Instruction

NOTE:
Take special care of electric cables, plugs and sockets, and make sure that hoisting
equipment is in safe serviceable condition. Follow the requirements of your local
regulations.
‒ Make sure that waste materials are handled in accordance with your local regulations.
‒ Safety in open elevator shafts.
For example, duplex elevator: Keep both cars at the same working height.
‒ Store the materials in zero mechanical energy state.
‒ When you store materials, for short or long periods, make sure that they are stacked
safely and that they cannot cause injury if they are displaced or drop down. Items such
as counterweight frames must always be stored in a horizontal position.
‒ Risk of hand-arm vibration, coming from the use of power tools. Regular and frequent
exposure to hand-arm vibration possibly leads to permanent ill health. Consider the time
spent holding the power tool and vibration emission level when estimating the level of
exposure to the vibration over the total working period. Read the instructions of the
manufacturer and comply with the local vibration regulations. Ask your supervisor for
more information.
‒ Do not drill, grind, weld or cut metal near the machine. If grinding or welding is required
in the proximity of the machine, cover the machine from sparks. Magnetic field in the
proximity of the machine creates a risk of electronic devices malfunctioning or stopping.
Keep credit and bank cards and electronic watches away from the working area.

3.2 Fall prevention

1. Identify all possible fall hazards.

2. Remove the fall hazards, if possible.

NOTE:
Refer to your local procedures for the type of entrance protection required.
3. If it is not possible to remove a fall hazard, then reduce the risk of fall using fall
prevention methods.
4. If it is not possible to protect against a fall hazard using fall prevention methods, then
use fall arrest equipment. The use of fall arrest equipment must always be verified
through specific risk assessment. Safety harness must be secured to a life-line or other
approved anchorage point. The provision of suitable rescue equipment, instruction
and training must be available to make sure the timely rescue if there is a fall.
5. If applicable, use safety harness in accordance with your national codes.

5 SITE REQUIREMENTS AND TOOLS

5.1 Site requirements

1. The car door operator must be fixed to the car.

2. There must be adequate safety spaces above and below the car.

NOTE:
EN 81-1/2. If these do not exist, extension buffers must be fitted to the counterweight
for the modernization time.
3. Check for fall hazards, including unprotected edges and slippery surfaces.

NOTE:
EN 81-1/2. Where there is risk of falling a local fall protection plan must be used.
4. Verify that there are no electrical hazards, particularly from emergency backup supplies
and other equipment that is not associated with the elevator.
5. Make sure that there is adequate lighting and power supplies (temporary or
permanent).
6. Depending on the agreed working methods, lifting eyes positioned in the top of the
elevator shaft marked with their safe working loads.

NOTE:
Local regulations vary.
7. Make sure that there is suitable storage areas for materials and tools, agreed with the
customer, next to the elevator shaft.

NOTE:
It is recommended that the storage area is within 20 meters of the elevator shaft.
8. Make sure that there is clear, unobstructed access routes to at least one entrance, at
or next to the ground/access floor, agreed with the client and clear of obstructions.
9. Make sure that there is provision for full height, imperforate landing protection and
other temporary safety fences as required.
Normally provided by KONE in accordance with local regulations.
10. Make sure that there is suitable provision for disposal of waste materials.
11. Make sure where applicable, approved fixing points for safety harnesses must be
available.
12. Make sure when the car roof is to be used as the working platform it must be verified
that the roof is strong enough to support the weight of two men, tools and equipment
after the car door operator has been removed.
If the car structure (for example sill) is to be used for the transportation of materials
make sure that it is also strong enough for the proposed method.

NOTE:
If necessary, more strengthening must be added before further work is undertaken.
(Refer to your local engineering support function).
13. Make sure before the commencement of the refurbishment work that all potentially
hazardous materials are removed and disposed of by specialist subcontractors in
accordance with the local regulations.

NOTE:
If in doubt about any materials that may become exposed during the refurbishment,
STOP WORK IMMEDIATELY and inform your supervisor.
14. Make sure that the car/counterweight balance is maintained during and after the

5.3 Preventing ESD hazards

Electrostatic damage to electronic devices can occur at any point from manufacturing to
field service. Damage results from handling the devices in uncontrolled surroundings or
when poor ESD control practices are used. Generally damage is classified as either a
catastrophic failure or a latent defect.
Always use ESD protection methods and equipment when finding and ESD symbol in an
instruction or spare part package.

Basic rules for preventing ESD hazards:

‒ Disconnect all power supplies. Wait for all stored sources of energy to discharge (for
example capacitors in inverter drives).
‒ Use an ESD wrist strap combined with a portable ESD working pad to remove the
electrostatic charge.
‒ Do not unpack the spare parts before installation.
‒ Do not touch components on a PC board unnecessarily.
‒ Hold a PC board from its edges - do not touch the connectors.
‒ An old component must be handled in the same way as the new one.
‒ Use an ESD working pad to lay the components down. Insulation material does not
protect against ESD damage.
‒ Do not wear combinations of clothing that can create static charges.
‒ Remove any wrist strap before reconnecting power (both ends of the wire).

3. Check correct functioning of the Photocell (if wired to terminal X15/ X16).
4. Check that the close force is not set to too high value.

NOTE:
Reopen request is not sent in the first 25% of the door movement (when starting from
the open position).

NOTE:
Reopening does not work if elevator inspection drive is enabled (SD-input enabled). If
SD-input is enabled (inspection drive switch is enabled in car roof), commands from
elevator controller are blocked.
Exceeding the closing force limit causes reopen output to change its state.
Outputs are solid-state relays: If board is not powered, reopen NC is open circuit.
For D15 parallel, if open button is wired to X1 interface, pressing the open button
activates the reopen output.
With LCE, open button interface (X1/ 14) in drive board is not normally used and S2/2 is
normally configured to off position.
