The pit cages' positions are indicated here !

 

The depth meter !


To explain this picture: The both white arrows indicate the position of the two pit cages - one of them is fixed at each end of the rope. The "HB" at the top is the abbreviation for Haengebank, the German word for pit bank - the end of the shaft at the surface - and the figures indicate the different underground levels the shaft is connected with. Today the pit cages' positions are measured electronically.
