  • Filmed on December 20, 2016: While I unfortunately wasn't allowed to ride this, a HUGE THANKS to the Audi staff for running and filming this for us!!!! :D :D We've also included another Schindler 3300 elevator towards the end of this video. Sorry for the little awkward camera moves when Cameron filmed this for me on the manlift, but still was a good video. Installed in 2016.

    This guy stops the lift when he gets to the floor of his choice. We only used the rope switch for emergencies, you had to get on and off the step on the fly. Some of ours were more than 10 stories tall.

    In Washington DC; they have not allowed these to be installed in any new buildings. Any Manlift installed before the code changes is grandfathered in. But new ones are not allowed. Also, all operators have to have a license from the District of Columbia to operate a Manlift. IF you don't get off at the right place, you can be seriously injured or killed.

      I love these. I was a supervisor in a 10 story building, and you got where you wanted before the freight elevator got started. Don't carry something over 2 ft long, horizontally!

    These things are a hazard but these ones look a lot better maintained then the ones I often see at this processing factory.

    I've seen those man lifts downtown in two parking garages. One in the The Tower Building parking garage and the one at our local ABC station garage (not working).

    Interesting, very reminiscent of the man engines used in old mines. One of these failed in the 1800s causing an entire lift with nearly 40 men on board to plummet hundreds of feet and cause a partial cave in

      Our nearby Quaker oats facility was full of them when I started there. some going to the top of large elevators with few floors to hop off. After a fatality at another plant they were slowly replaced with Alimak rack and pinion lifts. This guy stops the lift when he gets to the floor of his choice. We only used the rope switch for emergencies, you had to get on and off on the step on the fly.
