INSTALLATION A. B. C. Install the elevators and dumbwaiter, using skilled workmen in strict accordance with the final accepted shop drawings and other submittals. Comply with the code, manufacturer's instructions and recommendations. Coordinate work with the work of other trades for proper time and sequence to avoid construction delays and to insure right-of-way of system. Use lines and levels to ensure dimensional coordination of the work. Accurately and rigidly secure supporting elements within the Hoistway to the encountered construction within the tolerance established. Erect guide rails plumb and parallel to a maximum of 3 mm (plus or minus 1.5 mm). Install rails so that joints do not interfere with brackets. Set entrance plumb in Hoistway and in alignment with guide rails prior to the erection of the front walls. Arrange door tracks and sheaves so that no metal to metal contact exists. Reinforce Hoistway fascias to allow not more than 13 mm of deflection. Pack openings around oil line with fire resistant, sound isolating glass or mineral wool. Install elevator cab enclosure on platform plumb and align cab entrance with Hoistway entrances. Sound isolate cab enclosure from car structure. allow no direct rigid connections between enclosure and car structure and between platform and car structure. Elevators 14200-25

Remove oil, dirt and impurities and give a factory coat of rust inhibitive paint to all exposed surfaces of struts, hanger supports, covers, fascias, toe guards, dust covers and other ferrous metal. Pre-hang traveling cables for at least 24 hours with ends suitably weighted to eliminate twisting. Provide isolation pad between platen head and car structure. Mount operating fixtures with tamperproof screws. Coordinate fixture material and finishes with The Engineer. Adjust elevators and dumbwaiter to meet the performance requirements.

S.

Provide and install motors, switches, controls, safety and maintenance and operating devices in strict accordance with the submitted wiring diagrams and applicable codes and regulations having jurisdiction. After installation touch up, in the field, surfaces of shop primed elements which have become scratched or damaged. Lubricate operating parts of system as recommended by the manufacturer.
