Thank you. I did try to determine the method of overspeeding, at least with the state inspector, and he didn't recall specifically what they did/do for our elevator. I'm not sure that my current company will tell me. From the further posts, I'm going to check the free-ness and room left in the bottom orange pulley.

Regards, Dean

In your first post, you said your current service provider was try to overspeed the elevator. My question is how did they do this on the prior tests?
