OPERATING MANUAL DAF380 MAINTENANCE/SERVICE
ThyssenKrupp Aufzugswerke GmbH
The brake adjustment for the DAF380 is to be carried out only with one
effective brake shoe with the elevator car loaded with the rated load on a
descending run (full down) according to the values specified in Table 7.3.2.

Before carrying out a brake test, check the braking distance that results
from the above-mentioned deceleration.
Important: In the case of repeated braking, the brake disc heats up, which
causes braking behaviour and setting values to change. It is recommended,
therefore, to have a sufficiently long cooling down phase between tests.
Caution: When setting, the test switch screw must not touch the switch
contact, or only very lightly, because otherwise the switch will be damaged.
Note: Brake test switches must be checked or readjusted after adjusting the
brake.
