The broken Direct Drive was actually swapped out for brand new one in a matter of days. These Direct Drives are hermetically sealed and there is practically no repair that can be done on-site. The replacement was actually pretty costly, as they had to cut a giant hole in the concrete roof to lift the drive out of the building. As far as I know Doppelmayr paid for the replacement as it was a manufacturing error. No idea why the drive is covered :D
@@RopewayReport Thank you for your quick answer and the infos! I found out, that leitner is able to repair it on site without replacement. see here ruclips.net/video/-y0CoDuIqhc/видео.html (starting at 1:28) looks very efficient?!
@@winteronly9371 The drive broke down a few days after the gondolas opening back in 2017. It was a manufacturing error, but I'm not sure about the specific cause.
