2.3 Inspection of Wellway/Recess
Using the contract specific layout, verify that the key wellway/Recess measurements shown below
are correct at the site. Refer to the illustrations on the following page for a representation of each
dimension listed below. The tolerance should follow GAD requirements, otherwise specified.
Bottom Landing:
A - Pit Length
B - Pit Width
C - Pit Depth
D - Recess Width
E - Recess Depth
Top Landing:
F - Recess Width
G - Recess Length
H - Recess Depth
Overall Wellway:
I - Distance from bearing face of top & bottom supports (0~15mm)
J - Height from lower level finished floor to top landing finished floor
K - Squareness of pit with respect to upper Recess (±25mm)
IMPORTANT! If there are any questions or concerns with the measurements of the building or
on the layout, contact your superintendent immediately before moving to the next step.
IMPORTANT! The finished floor elevations and upper/lower landing centerlines are to be
provided by the contractor.

For the moving walk wellway and Recess, can refer to the following drawings:
Moving walk with incline (12°):
0° Moving walk drawing
Pit length A (Lower support face to pit wall) Pit Width B
Pit Depth C (measured to finished floor) Finished Floor Elevation (from contractor)
Lower Recess Width Lower Recess Depth E (measured to finished floor)
At the lower landing, verify the pit width, length and depth measurements. Ensure that the finished
floor height is added to the depth measurement. Then verify the measurements of the Recess length
and depth.

Upper Recess Depth H (measured to finished floor) Upper Recess Width F
Upper Recess Length G
At the upper landing, verify the measurements of the Recess width, length, and depth. Ensure that
the finished floor height is added to the depth measurement.
CAUTION! Ensure your body stays behind the barricade to prevent a failing hazard. If measures
cannot be taken accurately from behind the barricade, then the proper fall protection must be worn.
Distance J between Upper & Lower Face of Support
From the upper landing, drop a plumb bob from each end of the upper bearing face and place a mark
on the lower level floor. Using a chalk line, draw a line between the two points to establish the location
of the upper bearing face onto the lower level floor. Then measure from this line back to the lower
bearing face and verifies the result with the contract specific layout.
Verify the measurement for the rise. Measure from the height of the top landing finished floor to the
bottom level finished floor.

roller dollies.

Hoisting of unit 45
3.3 Hoist/Set Unit in Place
If the unit was assembled in an offsite location, transport the unit to the site on a flatbed. The unit
will then either be hoisted directly off the truck, through the roof and into the recess or will have to
be moved through the building next to the wellway and then hoisted into place. All hoisting should
be done using four 25mm shackles and four 19mm wire rope slings through the hoisting eyes at each
end of the unit.
CAUTION: The left side of the unit at the upper landing will has additional weight due to the
motor. Using only one sling between the hoisting eyes will result in an offset load causing the unit to
twist/roll.
46 Hoisting of unit
CAUTION: during hoisting, the wire rope must hoist the hoisting eyes instead of other locations;
otherwise, it may cause severe damage to the truss.
If the unit cannot be hoisted into place through the roof, position the unit next to the well way. Use a
fork truck at the lower end and a hoist/crane at the upper end to set the unit in place. All hoisting
should be done using four 25mm shackles and four 19mm wire rope slings through the hoisting eyes
at each end of the unit.
ATTENTION: Before final positioning of the unit, the exact location of the supporting
angle/damping block may require minor adjustments to ensure that the leveling bolts are sat at the
central area.
For parallel units, check position requirements of supporting bracket for floor plate after hoisting:
➢ For 0mm distance between two units:
1. The before-after-tolerance for supporting brackets of two units should be within 3mm, height
difference should be ≤3mm and the tolerance of gap between supporting brackets at joint-side
should be ≤2mm.
2. The before-after-tolerance for fixed comb plates of two units should be within 2mm and height
difference should be within 2mm.
➢ For 1~1000mm distance between two units:
The before-after-tolerance for supporting brackets of two units should be within 5mm, height
difference should be ≤5mm and the tolerance of gap between supporting brackets at parallel-unit-
side should be ≤5mm.

1. Loosen the counter nuts M36 on the set screws and spin them all the way up.
2. For sinking the supports, loosen the nuts M10 with the threaded rod step-by-step (anti-
clockwise), while fastening the set-screws M36 simultaneously (clockwise). The supports must
not fall down; they can't be recovered!
3. The supports are fully sunken, when the moving walk begins to rise by turning the set screws
M36 .The fixing-screws have to be lose now.
4. By turning the set screws M36, the moving walk must be adjusted horizontally.
5. With more than one intermediate support, adjustments have repercussions on each other.
Therefore, step by step, always converge the intermediate support furthest away from its set value
to it and keep adapting the other intermediate supports. Tighten the left hand and right hand
adjustment screws alternatively in small steps by means of a torque wrench till the required torque
values, as stated on the installation drawing, are reached for each screw.
6. Afterwards the counter nuts M36 must be fastened and the threaded rod be removed.

Splice truss sections 53
4. Splice Truss Sections
The goal is to splice the truss sections together and re-connect all related rails, chain, and electrical
connections at the splice point.
4.1 Splice Truss
The following tools and material handling equipment will be required to splice the truss sections
together:
• 800 Nm Torque Wrench / 32 mm socket or 32 mm Wrench

Or 1200Nm Torque Wrench / 41mm socket or 41 mm Wrench
• 17.8N Sledge Hammer
• Roller Dollies (2)
• 1 Ton Cable Puller
• C-clamp (300mm)
• Sleever Bar
• Ratchet w/ 19mm socket
ATTENTION: Apply the proper bolts for the connection of truss.
54 Splice truss sections
In case of a butt joint within the truss, the screw connections have to be tightened with the following
torques:

In case of a reinforced butt joint within the truss, the screw connections have to be tightened with
the following torques:
ATTENTION:
• Make sure the linking blocks are flat and there is no interleaving.
• Insert the bolts (M20*130-10.9) or (M24*135-10.9) into the holes of the linking blocks and fasten
with a spanner. To tighten apply torque of 600Nm or 1100Nm respectively.
• The bolts cannot be worn out and ensure that there is at least one circular screw out of the nut; the
bolts should be inserted into the holes from upper side to the lower in a vertical direction.
Before truss hoisting, remove all of the nuts and washers from bottom splice plate on truss of lower
landing section.
First, hoist the truss of lower landing,

ensure centerline marked on the truss is
Axial bearing aligned with centerline of pit provided by
Axial bearing support Contractor. Second, begin to install
intermediate supports, place axial bearing,
Nylon washer axial bearing support, Nylon washer, flat
Flat steel steel, hardwood on concrete supports at
Hard wood both sides, then install two hexagonal bolts,
adjust the level of supporting rods, ensure
the inclination meets requirements. Refer
to Chapter 3.4 Install Intermediate Support
for details.

Hoist middle or upper truss section though hoisting eyes by 25mm shackles and four 19mm wire rope
slings. Adjust connection bolt holes at both split ends, ensure the connection bolt holes are in
alignment, then tighten M20x130 or M24x135 bolts, make sure the tightening torque is 600Nm for
M20 bolts or 1100Nm for M24 bolts, the gap between two adjacent truss sections is within 0.5mm.
Adjust the crane, re-install M12 nuts and washers on bottom plates, and secure the bottom truss
plate splice by tightening to a torque of 40Nm, which requires a 19mm socket to use together with
the wrench.
Above installation procedures can also be referenced for moving walks with more than one
intermediate supports.
To ensure the straightness of truss, place a laser instrument on upper flange (which is close to lower
system point) of middle straight section and set a target on upper flange (which is close to upper
system point) of middle straight section. Adjust the laser point emitted onto target and set laser
emitter the same height as the target. Set target each 5 meters away as measurement point and
adjust intermediate supports to ensure the straightness at the middle section is 0~5mm and the level
of truss at intermediate supports is within 0.3mm/m.
IMPORTANT!
Ensure the torque wrench is set back to 0 before storing. Leaving the wrench at a high torque setting
for an extended period can cause damage to the wrench.

Each glass holder on the incline portion of the truss should be adjusted until the surface that supports
the glass is plumb and the face of the holder is 116.5mm from the edge of the truss and the top of the
holder is 35mm from the truss. The two-piece shim allows for multiple adjustments.
IMPORTANT! The following page illustrates the process for aligning glass profile brackets on
the horizontal portion of the truss. The dimensions shown for the vertical/horizontal distance of the
bracket off the truss were derived from setting previous units to the key dimensions shown above.
The process and dimensions on the following page are intended to simplify the alignment of the
brackets. If necessary, the brackets can be verified using the key dimensions shown above.
245mm
116.5mm
The horizontal profile brackets (last bracket at upper and lower end) should first be adjusted until
the surface that supports the glass is plumb and the face of the bracket is 116.5mm from the edge of
the truss and the top of the bracket is 245mm from the comb plate.
The transition bracket (between the incline and end) does not need to be adjusted at this time. This
bracket will be adjusted once the glass is set in place.
Install the glass clamping piece to each glass holder. Ensure to back off the locked nut prior to
installing to allow sufficient clearance for the glass.

IMPORTANT! Tempered glass is very sensitive to breakage if bumped or hit on or around its
edges. Ensure to take extra care and always wear safety glasses and Kevlar gloves when handling.
Using the recommended vacuum lifter, install the 1st piece of middle straight section, align it to the
working point marked on truss and set it in place in the glass holder.

The edge of the glass should be aligned with the working point (‘Glass Start’) marked on the truss.
- From bottom-to-up direction, align the edge of the 1st middle straight glass with “Glass Start”
line marked on top flange of truss, and then install the middle straight glass upwards or lower
transition glass downwards.
- For moving walk with length beyond 40m, from bottom-to-up direction, align the edge of the
1st and the last middle straight glass with “Glass Start” lines marked on top flange of truss, and
then install the upper transition glass upwards and lower middle straight glass & lower transition
glass downwards.
Once set in position, secure the glass in place by adding the pressure piece between the glass and
the clamping piece and tighten up by applying 57Nm torque.
Working point
Begin to install the middle straight glass sections or upper/lower curve glass. Ensure an approx.
2mm gap is kept between adjacent glasses. A folded paper gasket with 2mm thick works well to set
this clearance.
The glass should be plumb and flush with the adjoining

glass section. To plumb, simply tap the shim pack under the
profile bracket in the direction opposite to the way the glass
needs to move.
All glass joints must be flush (plumb) and have consistent

glass separation gaps of 2-3 mm along the whole unit; two
adjacent glass edge misalignment should be within 1mm
and glass vertical misalignment is within 2mm.
Note: Each piece of glass should be marked and the

designation appears at the top corner. Marking at the
bottom will cause it to be covered by the decking.

5.3 Install Glass Tape
❖ For Slim Balustrade
Install foam tape with single layer to all glass top edges where are connected to handrail guide rail.
There are two tapes: one is 22mm in width and the other is 38mm; 22mm tape is used for glass edges
at the balustrade newel and 38mm tape is used for the rest glass edges.
Pull open the foam tape to approximately 100~150mm in length and paste the middle of beginning
end to glass top edges (Figure 1), press down the middle of tape down to glass edges each short
distance away (Figure 2); cut the tape with scissors after completion.
Check whether the middle of tape is aligned to glass edges and appropriate adjustment is required
if necessary, then press down the tape to glass top edges firmly. For the balustrade newel, press
down both middle and sides of tape to glass (Figure 3); for the rest glass sections, install handrail
guide rail directly and no need to press down the sides of tape to glass (Figure 4).

parallel to pallet edges. Slightly adjust the adjustment screw of intermediate supports to
ensure the water bubble is in the middle.
2) Run the moving walk downwards and check pallet level every 5 steps at a same position, if
the measured level for two pallets are within 0.9mm, then the adjustment is completed.
Otherwise, if the measured value is beyond 0.9mm, re-choose a pallet as a basis and
check the level of two pallets as above mentioned to align truss.
Pre-Start-Up Manual Test
Prior to rotating or starting-up the unit, visually inspect the unit to ensure all tools, parts, or any other
material has not been left on or in the unit. Check the comb segments to ensure they do not get
damaged by any hidden/missed foreign material.
Manually open the brake and run the unit (using your hands) a minimum of 10 pallets in each direction
to ensure nothing is bound up.

Install Maintenance Control Unit
The Maintenance Control Unit is used to operate the moving walk at a low speed during maintenance.
The maintenance control unit will enable safe operation of the moving walk during the inspection
process.
WARNING! Ensure the emergency stop button is pressed down before entering the
maintenance room.
CAUTION! Please ensure that yourself and all other persons near the moving walk are not in a
dangerous position before attempting to start the moving walk.
At the both landing, remove the cover from the maintenance control socket and plug in the
maintenance control unit. This connection point can be found on the service panel in the pit at the
upper and lower landings. Once the maintenance control unit is installed, the moving walk goes into
inspection mode and can only be operated using the maintenance control unit.
WARNING! Ensure the SERVICE/NORMAL button is turned to SERVICE position and

secured with padlock.
Fully test the operation of the maintenance control unit.
1) Plug the inspection controller into the inspection socket.
2) Press the start button and up button at the same time.

To adjust the switch, first set the tensioning switch spring length to 200 mm (take inclined moving
walk as an example) by turning the hexagon cotter nut ① on the threaded rod using a 24 mm wrench.
Then ensure the switch roller ③ is positioned in the middle of the cavity ④. If it is not, release the
locking screws ⑥ and adjust the rail horizontally until the roller is correctly positioned. Finally, release
the two fastening screws ⑧ and move the switch ⑦ vertically until there is 0.5±0.5 mm clearance
between the roller and the cavity. Be sure to adjust both the right-hand and left-hand side switches.

To ensure the 0.5±0.5mm clearance, detach the two fastening screws ⑧and move safety switch ⑦
vertically if necessary, adjust switch roller ③ to have a slight touch of switch clamping and the switch
roller ③ can move freely without any resistance.
Use the small metal lever to activate the

safety switch.
To test each switch, push down on the small metal lever at the top of the switch just below the small
roller. Then, after moving to a safe position, use the maintenance control unit to attempt to start the
moving walk. The moving walk should not be able to start. Next, return the same switch to the original
position and test that the moving walk can start properly. Repeat the procedure for the safety switch
on the other side of the moving walk.
CAUTION! Please ensure that you and all other persons near the moving walk are not in a
dangerous position before attempting to start the moving walk.

Inspect Horizontal Comb Plate Safety switch
The horizontal comb impact switch is located on both sides of the unit at each end and is designed
to interrupt power if there is a tripping force (left and right )of ﹥500N applied to the comb plate or
up thrust force of ﹥680N at the center of the front edge. The safety switches protect the moving
walk in case there is a collision between the pallets and the comb plate. Test the comb plate
mechanism to verify that both safety switches are functioning properly.
maintenance room.
Comb plate switches
To test the switches operate the moving walk using the maintenance controller. Then using a
standard tip screwdriver move the comb plate mechanism to test each safety switch. Activation of
each safety switch should stop the moving walk operation.
Use screwdriver
to pry washer.
The left is an enlarged view of how to

position the screwdriver tip to activate
the comb plate safety switch.

Check Vertical Comb Plate Contact*
The vertical comb plate contact is fastened laterally above the comb segments. The probe of safety
switch is naturally in contact with connection bolt. If the comb segment is raised, e.g. as a result
of an object being inserted into the combs, the unit immediately stops.
To check the comb plate contact, proceed as follows:
1. Remove a hexagon screw from an outer comb segment.
2. Screw the eye bolt into the comb segment.
3. Use a lever / screwdriver in the eye bolt to lift the movable comb plate.
➢ The safety contact releases.
4. Try to start the unit with the inspection controller.
➢ The unit must not start.
5. Position the movable comb plate into the starting position.
6. Try to start the unit with the inspection controller.
➢ The unit must start.
7. Remove the eye bolt.
8. Screw the hexagon screw into the comb segment.
9. Repeat the check on the other side.
10. Screw the eye bolt into the comb segment.
Inspect Handrail Inlet Switch
Natural contact
The handrail inlet switch is located on both sides of the unit at each end and is designed to interrupt
power if enough pressure is put against the handrail inlet flap causing it to open. To adjust, move the
switch until the switch probe is in natural contact with the retaining plate. Using the maintenance
controller test each handrail inlet switch to ensure the moving walk cannot operate with the flap in
the open position.

Inspect and Adjust Skirts
Although the skirt/pallet gap was set while the unit was in the factory, some adjustment may be
required after the unit is hoisted into position. Until the unit is at 30 degrees, there will be some slack
in the pallet chain which will allow the pallets to be to one side or the other (this will be minimal).
Once the unit is set at 30 degrees the tension carriage will remove this slack. Using a tapered gauge,
inspect the gap between the pallets and the skirt to verify it meets the factory requirement for
moving walks. The clearance (gap) between the pallet and skirt shall be between 0mm< gap≤4 mm
at either side, or 7 mm for the sum of clearances measured at both sides at two directly opposite
points. If necessary, adjust the skirt to comply with the requirement.
Gap Left + Gap Right ≤ 7 mm

0mm < Gap Left ≤ 4 mm
0mm < Gap Right ≤4 mm
Inspect Skirt Switches *
Skirt switches shut down the moving walk as soon as an object enters the gap between the pallets
and the skirt. Depending on requirements, they can be located in the transition curve areas (4
switches per moving walk) or in the transition curve areas and in the middle of the moving walk
(quantity of switches according to the length of moving walk).
Pre-travel 1.5mm
Pre-travel 1.5mm
The Skirt Switch is located on both sides of the unit at each end and is designed to interrupt power
if the gap between the pallet and skirt is increased due to the skirt being deflected. To adjust, first
ensure the washers in illustration A are properly oriented to achieve a “spring”. They should be
oriented concave to concave and convex to convex. Once verified set the width of the washer stack
to 9 mm and set the pre-travel distance between the switch and the set screw to 1.5mm. Also check
the location of the switch to ensure it is no less than the full load stopping distance from the comb.
This should be the location at which the pallet assumes the flat position.
Inspection:
1. Use Multimeter to check wire diagram to ensure all wirings are in correct connection;
2. Remove interior decking, insert 0.5mm taperd gauge between skirt switch and skirt to
activate skirt switch and simulate a fault.
3. Check whether the fault message and fault code (if there is diagnostic function) is detected
in control system. Before reset, use the maintenance control unit to start the moving walk
and the moving walk must not be started.
4. Reset the safety switch and ensure the safety switch is pre-travelled by 1.5mm, the fault
message is disappeared in control system.
5. Use the maintenance control unit and start the moving walk, the moving walk can be
started.
CAUTION! If a foreign object including human body is caught in the gap between pallets and
skirt panels and the moving walk cannot brake in time, it may cause casualties or damage to
equipment.

Inspect Pallet Inlet Guide
CAUTION! Following this procedure may place you in a dangerous position while working on
the moving walk. Please ensure that the proper precautions are taken to prevent the moving walk
from being accidentally started.
WARNING! Ensure the emergency stop switch is pressed down before entering the
maintenance room.
The pallet inlet guide is located on both sides of the unit at each end and is designed to prevent the
pallet from running against the combs. The gap between the pallet inlet guide and the pallet should
be ≤0.5 mm. Verify the gap by removing the comb segment and measuring the distance between
the pallet and the inlet guide. If an adjustment is required, turn the adjusting nuts until the gap is
properly set.
0.5mm Gap
Inspect Down Holding Rail Above Pallet Chain Roller
CAUTION! Following this procedure may place you in a dangerous position while working on
the moving walk. Please ensure that the proper precautions are taken to prevent the moving walk
from being accidentally started.
WARNING! Ensure the emergency stop switch is pressed down before entering the
maintenance room.
Inspect the clearance between the down holding rail and the pallet chain roller which should be
0.5mm and the tightening torque is 45Nm for the fastening bolt.

The drive chain monitoring switch is installed in the upper landing, 4 ~ 5mm away from the main drive
chain.
Inspection:
Remove the proximity switch from the drive chain, then run the moving walk with maintenance
control unit and the unit should not be started.
Inspect Drive Chain Slack
WARNING! Ensure the stop button is pressed down before entering the maintenance room.
Preparation: Move the flywheel in DOWN direction and run the moving walk downwards (or towards
the tension station end) for a short moment to ensure all the drive chain slack is in the top section of
the chain.
Inspection: Inspect the amount of slack in the drive chain. The amount of slack should be between
10 mm and 20 mm measured at the middle of the slack section of the chain.
Adjustment: If there is too much slack in the chain, reduce the amount of slack in the chain by
repositioning the drive unit further from the moving walk main shaft.
WARNING! This adjustment must be carried out under the supervision of authorized TKE
Elevator maintenance personnel.
Step 1: Loosen the nuts “A” first, then loosen the fasteners “B” securing the drive unit assembly
to the truss. Note that there may be 3 or 4 bolts securing the drive unit to the truss depending
on which model drive unit is used on the moving walk and tightening torque is 315Nm.
Step 2: Use the adjustment screw “C” at the front of the drive unit base to reposition the gearbox
rearward and remove the excess slack from the chain. Be certain that the drive unit remains
seated against the 2 adjustable stops “A” on the base opposite the drive chain. DO NOT
LOOSEN OR RE-ADJUST THE STOPS! The stops have been set to assure that output shaft of
the gearbox and the main shaft are parallel.
Step 3: Retighten the bolts and nuts which secure the drive unit to the truss frame. Ensure that
the gearbox housing is properly seated against the stops “A”.
Loosen the bolts

securing the drive unit

Handrail guide block
For Structure 2, remove the handrail from the middle handrail guide block first, then check
handrail sag.
Preparation: Use the maintenance control unit to position the 4 pallet gap in the pallet band to a
position just above the lower transition curve (or in the case of a horizontal moving walk, position the
gap in the pallet band about 2 meters from the combs at the tension station end). Run the moving
walk in upward and downward directions (or towards the drive station end) when positioning open
gap in the pallet band. This will ensure the maximum amount of sag is in the bottom part of the
handrail before making necessary measurements.
Inspection: For Structure 1, inspect the handrail sag at the middle straight section between 2 of the
guide rollers supporting the handrail; for Structure 2, remove the handrail from the middle handrail
guide block first and the handrail sags naturally. Then, measure the distance from the bracket on
truss to the handrail at position 1 and also at position 2 or 3 shown in the illustration. Subtract the
measurement at position 1 from the measurement at position 2 or 3. The result is the amount of sag
in the handrail and it should be between 25mm and 45 mm. If the sag is much more or less than this
amount, the handrail sag should be adjusted.
Adjustment: If the amount of sag in the handrail needs adjustment, following procedures should be
used to make proper adjustments.
Step 1: Move the gap in the pallet band to the upper transition curve just behind the handrail drive
shaft. The position the handrail slack adjuster relative to the handrail drive wheel is shown in the
below photo.

Step 2: Loosen the fasteners securing handrail slack adjustment device to the brackets. Move the
slack adjuster towards the handrail drive shaft to reduce the amount of sag in the handrail.
Displacing upward > sag decreases
Clamping screws
Angular guide sections
Roller bracket
Displacing downward > sag increases
Step 3: Re-tighten the bolts of the slack adjuster and re-install the middle handrail guide block (if it
is Structure 2) and repeat the procedure for the other handrail.
NOTE! If there is an additional handrail slack adjustment, device at the middle of the
moving walk (see photo below), then additional adjustment can be made at this location.
To gain access to this slack adjuster the some inner decking profiles must be removed at the
middle of moving walk. If the moving walk is equipped with this additional adjuster, all of the
adjustment for the handrail slack can be made using it alone. To make adjustment using this
device:
Step 1: Loosen the fasteners securing guide rollers bracket to the fixed bracket mounted to the
truss.
Step 2: Push down on the guide roller bracket to remove excess slack from the handrail.
Step 3: Re-tighten the bolts securing the slack adjuster and repeat the procedure for the other
handrails.

Inspect Brake Wear Indicator *
The brake wear monitoring uses an initiator to check the wear of the brake lining. If the brake lining
gets too thin, the initiator interrupts the control circuit and stops the moving walk.
Inspection:
4) Use multimeter to check whether all wirings are in good connection;

5) The clearance between brake wear indicator and brake shoe is 0.5mm;
6) Ensure brake wear indicator works effectively and reliably.
Inspect Auxiliary Brake *
There are two different types of auxiliary brake used on the moving walk. The first type is mechanical
and actuated directly by drive chain breakage.
The second type is electro-mechanical and actuated indirectly by the drive chain switch detecting
chain breakage. Which type is used depends on regulations within the country of use and the
technical requirements of the customer. Both emergency brakes are located at the top landing of the
unit and are designed to interrupt power and set the emergency brake in the event the drive chain
breaks.

Inspect Handrail Anti-Static Roller
Verify that the handrail anti-static roller is present. The black rubber roller is located on each side of
the unit at the bottom, just inside the handrail inlet. This roller dissipates the static build up in the
handrail by taking it to ground. Notify your supervisor if it is not present.

Inspect Handrail Speed Monitoring
Each handrail has a separate unit that monitors the speed of the handrail.
The handrail speed monitoring device shall be provided and shall initiate the stopping of the moving
walk in the event of a hand rail speed deviation of more than + 15 %/-15 % to the step/pallet speed
within a time frame of 5 seconds to 15 seconds.
To test the device, remove the proximity sensor from the bracket and attempt to operate the moving
walk by using the key switch, check whether moving walk can stop within 15 seconds after starting
and fault information displayed in control system. Return the proximity sensor to the bracket and
reset the fault manually. Check the control box again to see whether the fault information
disappeared and normal information displayed. Repeat the procedure for the other side of the
moving walk.
To adjust the switch, set the gap between the sensor and the roller to 2~3 mm.
Inspect Handrail Break Monitoring *
Tension
station
Each handrail has a separate unit that monitors the length/slack of the handrail. The moving walk is
halted when the handrail is pulled off of the handrail guide or the handrail is broken or the slack in the
handrail exceeds a maximum. Inspect that the distance between the handrail and an actuator is
properly set.
To check the handrail break switch:

- Stop the escalator.
- Use multimeter to check and ensure all wirings are in correct connection.
- Press down the roller of handrail break switch and fix with cable tie.
- Fault message can be detected in controller system and the escalator should not be started while
switching on.
- Switch off the escalator and put the roller back to original position, check whether the fault
message is disappeared.
- Switch on the escalator and the escalator can run smoothly, which indicates the handrail break
switch can work correctly.
- Repeat same inspection of handrail break switch on the other side.

Inspect Motor Speed Monitoring Device
When the moving walk slips or runs reversely, if the speed monitoring device is broken and
cannot brake in time, which will cause injuries/casualties to passengers.
Structure 1: Speed senor for flywheel
IMPORTANT!
The upper holes (more holes) on the flywheel are
used for simulating over-speed operation and the
lower holes (fewer holes) are used for used for
normal operation; the removal of all monitoring
sensors can simulate under-speed operation.
Inspection:
1. To test the operation of the speed monitoring sensor, we must artificially create a fault. This
can be easily done by removing one of the proximity sensors from the mounting bracket. Do
this by loosening the nut on the end opposite the flywheel and remove the sensor from the
bracket. Then attempt to start the moving walk and witness if the monitoring sensor can detect
the fault and switch off the moving walk after starting.
2. Re-install the removed proximity sensor back to its original position, ensure the distance
between proximity sensor and flywheel is 1+0
−0.5 mm and verify that the moving walk can start
and run properly.
Structure 2: Speed sensor for main shaft
Speed monitoring by main board display panel

Read the displayed information to identify whether the moving walk is over speed or unintentional
reversal running before it stops.
Test the speed monitoring sensor
Check the gap between speed monitoring sensors and sprocket of main shaft, ensure it is within
3±0.5mm; start the moving walk and the moving walk can work smoothly, which indicates that the
sensors are in good condition.

Structure 3: Speed monitoring sensor for magnetic strip
Installation:
Step 1: Install round disc for magnetic strip, ensure its surface is dry and no dirt, grease or other
contaminations left.
Step 2: Apply a thin layer of glue evenly on magnetic strip surface (surface without middle grooved
line) with glue gun.
Step 3: Paste magnetic strip naturally along the edge of round disc on the main shaft, ensure the
joint clearance between the two connected ends is ≤0.5mm and the two ends cannot overlap.
Attention: if the joint clearance is >0.5mm, please do not stretch the magnetic strip; if the two
connected ends overlap each other, please do not cut the strip, contact TKE Customer Service Center
for technical support.
Joint clearance
between two
connected
ends ≤0.5mm
Step 4: Remove the excessive glue from round disc and keep magnetic strip dry and clean.
Step 5: Use adhesive tape to fix beginning and bottom ends tightly to ensure the clearance
(≤0.5mm) unchanged and the ends will not warp.
Step 6: Install speed sensor, ensure the vertical distance (X) between sensor induction surface and
magnetic strip surface is 1 ±0.5mm; the installation surface of speed sensor and its lead-out
cables should be parallel to magnetic strip, the distance (Y) between middle line of sensor
induction surface and the middle line of magnetic strip is less than 3mm.
Sensor induction surface

The installation surface of the sensor and its lead-
out cables should be parallel to magnetic strip.

Speed sensor
Step 7: The cables of magnetic strip sensor are connected to the terminals on control box, and
shielding cable of the sensor should be connected to the PE terminal.
Step 8: Before commission, remove the adhesive tape gently from magnetic strip and ensure the
magnetic strip is not off from the round disc.
Note: The main switch should be turned to OFF before any operations on moving walk.
Attentions:
1. Magnetic strip is installed before step band installation.

2. Glue and glue gun can be used repeatedly.
3. The adhesive tape on the magnetic strip should be kept on until the glue is hardened. As the
glue takes at least 4 hours for hardening, so it is recommended to remove the adhesive tape
4 hours after installation at room temperature.
4. Replace magnetic strip if it is flattened or damaged during installation.
If the magenetic strip is installed at facotry:

1. Clean the magnetic strip at jobsite after the whole unit is installed. Use soft brush to clean
magnetic strip to remove dust, sand or iron scraps. Don’t use hard or iron tool to scrape magnetic
strip to avoid strip damage.
2. Check above installation requirements after cleaning.
Inspect Floor Plate Contacts
Floor plate contacts prevent unit operation when the reversing station covers are open. Test if the
moving walk can be operated when the floor plate is removed. The switch will need to be overridden
to operate the moving walk normally during maintenance steps.
1) For ECT controller:
The minimum clearance required between safety switch and pressure plate is 1mm after floor plate
covered. When removing the floor plate, the pressure plate should press the probe of safety switch
completely.
2) For GEC controller:
To check the floor plate contact, proceed as follows:

1． Remove the floor plate at lower landing.
2． Start the unit in one direction in normal mode using the key switch.
➢ The unit must not start.
CAUTION! If the floor plate is not replaced properly but the moving walk is put into operation,
it may cause severe injury to passengers.

Install Remaining Missing Pallets
Fit the missing pallets to the unit. Ensure the anti-rotation device is properly oriented in the “locked”
position on the pallet/axle attachment point.
Step 1: Re-install the pallet to the moving walk. Repeat the procedure to install the other 3 pallets.
Use the reverse of this procedure to re-install the pallets to the moving walk. The tightening torque
of the M24 x 1.5 hexagon nut is 130 Nm.
Step 2: Insert the pallet chain shaft into pallet chain white plastic connecting link, then push back the
anti-rotation device and spring washer to the position shown in the below photo. Rotate the hollow
axle 90 degrees to firmly fix the pallet to the axle. Be careful when rotating the hollow axle! When the
flats on the hollow axle align with slot on the pallet, the pallet will be easily attached to the axle.
Push back the anti-

rotation device and
spring washer.
Rotate the hollow

axle and attach the
moving walk.

CAUTION! You must support the pallet once it is fixed to both axles or it may drop and cause
an injury to yourself or damage the white plastic connecting links retaining the pallet at the opposite
end.
Assembly in inverted order
Torque of hexagonal nut is 130nm!

The anti-rotation device must be re-fixed back to the hollow axle.
The anti-rotation device must be firmly clasped to the pallet.
Inserting an oil collection cap

Put the cap at one side into groove of the hollow axle. Then push in the cap by your thumb.
Removing an oil collection cap

Pull at the tongue of the cap with flat pliers.

10.15 Inspect the Gap between Comb Plate and Pallet
The teeth of the comb should be properly positioned in the middle of the step tread grooves, and
the teeth should be accurately meshed with the running steps.
Apply a gauge to check two clearances. The clearance h6 roof of the comb teeth and the pallet treads
shall be between 3mm and 4mm, and the mesh depth h8 of the combs into the grooves of the pallet
treads shall be at least 4mm.
Comb intersection line Root of the comb teeth
3mm≤ h6 ≤4mm
h8  4mm
10.16 Inspect Comb Plate Gap
Inspect the gap between the movable and fixed parts of the comb plate. Clean the gap if it is filled
with dirt and debris. The gap should be a consistent size across the width of the comb plate.
The clearance between fixed comb plate and movable comb plate is 4~6mm and the interface
between comb plates is straight.

10.17 Inspect Decking
Inspect interior decking for damage and ensure that each panel is securely attached to the moving
walk. Check that joints between adjacent panels are flush and that no gaps or unevenness exists
that will create a hazard. Check that there are no protruding screws at the attachment with the
skirt. Check that display panels and traffic lights are securely attached. Apply pressure to these
areas to be sure that you cannot create a gap between the device and the decking (due to faulty or
damaged mounting).
Inspect exterior decking for damage. Ensure that exterior decking are securely attached to the
moving walk
Apply pressure to ensure that traffic

light and display panel are securely
attached.
10.18 Inspect Skirt Panels
Inspect skirt panels for damage and ensure that each panel is securely attached to the moving
walk. Check that joints between adjacent panels are flush and that no gaps or unevenness exists
that will create a hazard. If the moving walk is equipped with skirt lighting, check that the plastic
lens are not cracked or damaged and that they are securely attached. If the moving walk is
equipped with comb plate lighting, check that the plastic cover is securely attached without
damage.
Inspect that plastic cover

are securely attached and
without damage.

10.19 Inspect Skirt Brushes *
If the moving walk is equipped with skirt brushes, inspect that they are securely attached and
without damage. Inspect whether skirt brushes are securely attached and without damage.
CAUTION! In case of a foreign object (including human body) caught in the gap between
pallet and skirt panels, it may cause casualties and/or severe damage to equipment.
10.20 Remove Floor Plate
CAUTION! Be certain that the maintenance barriers are properly in position before removing
the floor plates.
Please use special tool for lifting the floor plate, which tool provided is per actual floor plate structure.
Carefully remove the floor plate and place it in a safe location while working on the moving walk.
Structure 1:
Structure 2:
CAUTION! For structure 2, lift the floor plate vertically upward to remove the floor plate, or
will damage the lifting tool.

10.21 Test the Floor Plate Burglar Alarm *
The floor plate burglar alarm switch is used to detect whether or not the floor plate is being
unauthorized entry.
Open the floor plate in a normal way, firstly unlock the floor plate and then open the floor plate so
that the burglar alarm could not be activated.
Open the floor plate in an abnormal way by creating an artificial fault. That is, firstly attempt to open
the floor plate without unlocking the floor plate, and then the burglar alarm should be activated
immediately.
