UPDATE 2023: I have since ridden an elevator that believe it or not was WORSE than this one! This one at the worst sucked air for 26 seconds and this other one went for longer! Check it out here: • The New WORST Low On O...
(2-19) One day, I decided to take a ride on the library elevator at my school, and found that it was low on oil. Since I had class most days of the week, I decided to check up on the elevator each day to see how long it took for it to get repaired. Towards the end, it got so low on oil I actually got nervous riding it, wondering if I would make it to the top....

A library in my childhood town had a ThyssenKrupp Impulse that has a motor SO LOUD, the staff tried their best to try and reduce as many rides as possible! It wasn’t low on oil or anything, but it was a TERRIBLE type of motor as it vibrates the entire building and makes the lights flicker when it starts going up. The elevator itself was in pretty decent condition tho

Now that it's 2 years later, how is this elevator holding up? And when it was low on fluid (in a rather misbehaving manner), did you by any chance report this elevator problem to anyone, so they could have it replaced?

I have not ridden it since I moved onto another school. They did fix it in the end, so my guess is it's running like normal.

Not bone dry as the pump doesn’t take in the oil from the bottom, but I bet the impeller would be splashing oil *EVERYWHERE!*
