Narrative

At approximately 3:10 p.m. the service hoist went down while performing the daily checks. It was determined that an e-stop switch on the bottom of the shaft had went bad. The e-stop was replaced, retested and the hoist was put back in service. No one was injured or trapped. Both agencies were notified.
