I also have a Dover home lift. It is installed in my condominum here in Murray, Utah. This two story, with basement, has the unit going from the finished basement, to the first and second floor. This condo was built in 1969. Do not know when the elevator was installed. It works great, it is type: 60700-3. No: 5294. I would like to know when it was made and if anyone has owners or operators manual that I could purchase from them. Any information source would also be great. Thanks.

On some of those homelifts, They had a false floor below the elevator that stopped you from running down if it contacted something in its travels. I had a similar problem and it turned out that mice, or roaches had eaten the skirt and the switch was not working correctly under the cab. These switches were not required when you had doors at both levels, but sometimes they were there anyway. Moving in the car just jostled the switch enough to let the car move..
