This section contains the general safety precautions
which must be observed during maintenance of the aerial
platform. It is of utmost importance that maintenance personnel pay strict attention to these warnings and precautions to avoid possible injury to themselves or others or
damage to the equipment. A maintenance program must
be established by a qualified person and must be followed
to ensure that the machine is safe to operate.
MODIFICATION OF THE MACHINE WITHOUT CERTIFICATION BY
A RESPONSIBLE AUTHORITY THAT THE MACHINE IS AT LEAST
AS SAFE AS ORIGINALLY MANUFACTURED IS A SAFETY VIOLATION.
The specific precautions to be observed during machine
maintenance are inserted at the appropriate point in the
manual. These precautions are, for the most part, those
that apply when servicing hydraulic and larger machine
component parts.
Your safety, and that of others, is the first consideration
when engaging in the maintenance of equipment. Always
be conscious of component weight and never attempt to
move heavy parts without the aid of a mechanical device.
Do not allow heavy objects to rest in an unstable position.
When raising a portion of the equipment, ensure that adequate support is provided.
SINCE THE MACHINE MANUFACTURER HAS NO DIRECT CONTROL OVER THE FIELD INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE,
SAFETY IN THIS AREA IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER/
OPERATOR.
C. MAINTENANCE
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH SAFETY PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN
THIS SECTION COULD RESULT IN MACHINE DAMAGE, PERSONNEL INJURY OR DEATH AND IS A SAFETY VIOLATION.
• REMOVE ALL RINGS, WATCHES, AND JEWELRY
WHEN PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.
• DO NOT WEAR LONG HAIR UNRESTRAINED, OR
LOOSE FITTING CLOTHING AND NECKTIES WHICH
ARE APT TO BECOME CAUGHT ON OR ENTANGLED
IN EQUIPMENT.
• OBSERVE AND OBEY ALL DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION AND OTHER INSTRUCTIONS ON MACHINE
AND IN SERVICE MANUAL.
• KEEP STANDING SURFACES AND HAND HOLDS
FREE OF OIL, GREASE, WATER, ETC.
• NEVER WORK UNDER AN ELEVATED PLATFORM
UNTIL PLATFORM HAS BEEN SAFELY RESTRAINED
FROM ANY MOVEMENT BY BLOCKING OR OVERHEAD SLING.
• BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATING OR
PERFORMING ANY OTHER MAINTENANCE, SHUT
OFF ALL POWER CONTROLS.
•BATTERY SHOULD ALWAYS BE DISCONNECTED
DURING REPLACEMENT OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS.
• KEEP ALL SUPPORT EQUIPMENT AND ATTACHMENTS STOWED IN THEIR PROPER PLACE.
• USE ONLY APPROVED, NONFLAMMABLE CLEANING
SOLVENTS.
B. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM SAFETY
1. It should be particularly noted that the machines
hydraulic systems operate at extremely high and
potentially dangerous pressures. Every effort should
be made to relieve any system pressure prior to disconnecting or removing any portion of the system.
2. Relieve system pressure by lowering the platform
completely to direct any line pressure back into the
return line to the reservoir. Pressure feed lines to
system components can then be disconnected with
minimal fluid loss.

Hydraulic Oil
Hydraulic oils must have anti-wear qualities at least to API
Service Classification GL-3, and sufficient chemical stability for mobile hydraulic system service. JLG Industries,
recommends Mobilfluid 424 hydraulic oil, which has an
SAE viscosity of 10W-30 and a viscosity index of 152.
For cold weather applications, i.e. when temperatures
remain consistently below +20°F (–7°C) JLG recommends using Mobil DTE 13 hydraulic oil.
Aside from JLG recommendations, it is not advisable to
mix oils of different brands or types, as they may not contain the same required additives or be of comparable viscosities. If use of hydraulic oil other than Mobilfluid 424 is
desired, contact JLG Industries for proper recommendations.

SECTION 2 - GENERAL SERVICE INFORMATION
2.3 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
GUIDELINES
General
The following information is provided to assist you in the
use and application of servicing and maintenance procedures contained in this chapter.
Safety and Workmanship
Your safety, and that of others, is the first consideration
when engaging in the maintenance of equipment. Always
be conscious of component weight. Never attempt to
move heavy parts without the aid of a mechanical device.
Do not allow heavy objects to rest in an unstable position.
When raising a portion of the equipment, ensure that adequate support is provided.
NEVER WORK UNDER AN ELEVATED PLATFORM UNTIL PLATFORM HAS BEEN SAFELY RESTRAINED FROM ANY MOVEMENT
BY BLOCKING OR OVERHEAD SLING.
Cleanliness
The most important single item in preserving the long service life of a machine is to keep dirt and foreign materials
out of vital components. Precautions have been taken to
safeguard against this. Shields, covers, seals, and filters
are provided to keep the wheel bearings, mast sections
and oil supply clean; however, these items must be maintained on a scheduled basis in order to function properly.
all parts are clean before they are installed. New parts
should remain in their containers until they are ready to be
used.
Components Removal and Installation
Use adjustable lifting devices, whenever possible, if
mechanical assistance is required. All slings (chains,cables, etc.) should be parallel to each other and as near
perpendicular as possible to top of part being lifted.
Should it be necessary to remove a component on an
angle, keep in mind that the capacity of an eyebolt or similar bracket lessens, as the angle between the supporting
structure and the component becomes less than 90
degrees.
If a part resists removal, check to see whether all nuts,
bolts, cables, brackets, wiring, etc., have been removed
and that no adjacent parts are interfering.
Component Disassembly and Reassembly
When disassembling or reassembling a component, complete the procedural steps in sequence. Do not partially
disassemble or assemble one part, then start on another.
Always recheck your work to assure that nothing has been
overlooked. Do not make any adjustments, other than
those recommended, without obtaining proper approval.
Pressure-Fit Parts
When assembling pressure-fit parts, use an “anti-seize” or
molybdenum disulfide base compound to lubricate the
mating surface.
Bearings
IT IS GOOD PRACTICE TO AVOID PRESSURE-WASHING ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS. IN THE EVENT PRESSURE-WASHING THE MACHINE IS NEEDED, ENSURE THE
MACHINE IS SHUT DOWN BEFORE PRESSURE-WASHING.
SHOULD PRESSURE WASHING BE UTILIZED TO WASH AREAS
CONTAINING ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS, JLG
INDUSTRIES, INC. RECOMMENDS A MAXIMUM PRESSURE OF
750 PSI (52 BAR) AT A MINIMUM DISTANCE OF 12 INCHES (30.5
CM) AWAY FROM THESE COMPONENTS. IF ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS ARE SPRAYED, SPRAYING MUST NOT
BE DIRECT AND BE FOR BRIEF TIME PERIODS TO AVOID HEAVY
SATURATION.
At any time when oil lines are disconnected, clear adjacent areas as well as the openings and fittings themselves. As soon as a line or component is disconnected,
cap or cover all openings to prevent entry of foreign matter.
Clean and inspect all parts during servicing or maintenance, and assure that all passages and openings are
unobstructed. Cover all parts to keep them clean. Be sure
When a bearing is removed, cover it to keep out dirt and
abrasives. Clean bearings in nonflammable cleaning solvent and allow to drip dry. Compressed air can be used
but do not spin the bearing.
Discard bearings if the races and balls (or rollers) are pitted, scored, or burned.
If bearing is found to be serviceable, apply a light coat of
oil and wrap it in clean (waxed) paper. Do not unwrap
reusable or new bearings until they are ready to install.
Lubricate new or used serviceable bearings before installation. When pressing a bearing into a retainer or bore,
apply pressure to the outer race. If the bearing is to be
installed on a shaft, apply pressure to the inner race.
Gaskets
Check that holes in gaskets align with openings in the
mating parts. If it becomes necessary to hand-fabricate a
gasket, use gasket material or stock of equivalent material
and thickness. Be sure to cut holes in the right location, as
blank gaskets can cause serious system damage.
3121228– JLG Lift –2-5
SECTION 2 - GENERAL SERVICE INFORMATION
Bolt Usage and Torque Application
Use bolts of proper length. A bolt which is too long will
bottom before the head is tight against its related part. If a
bolt is too short, there will not be enough thread area to
engage and hold the part properly. When replacing bolts,
use only those having the same specifications of the original, or one which is equivalent.
Unless specific torque requirements are given within the
text, standard torque values should be used on heattreated bolts, studs, and steel nuts, in accordance with
recommended shop practices or the Torque Chart Figures
in Section 1 of this Service Manual.
Hydraulic Lines and Electrical Wiring
Clearly mark or tag hydraulic lines and electrical wiring, as
well as their receptacles, when disconnecting or removing
them from the unit. This will assure that they are correctly
reinstalled.
Hydraulic System
Keep the system clean. If evidence of metal or rubber particles is found in the hydraulic system, drain and flush the
entire system.
Disassemble and reassemble parts on clean work surface. Clean all metal parts with non-flammable cleaning
solvent. Lubricate components, as required, to aid assembly.
Lubrication and Servicing
Components and assemblies requiring lubrication and
servicing are shown in the Lubrication Chart, (See Section
1). Service applicable components with the amount, type,
and grade of lubricant recommended in this manual, at
the specified intervals. When recommended lubricants are
not available, consult your local supplier for an equivalent
that meets or exceeds the specifications listed.
Batteries
Clean batteries, using a non-metallic brush and a solution
of baking soda and water. Rinse with clean water. After
cleaning, thoroughly dry batteries and coat terminals with
an anti-corrosion compound.
Mast Chain Inspection Procedure
Inspect mast chains for the following conditions:
Wear: Always inspect that segment of chain that operates
over a sheave. As the chain flexes over the sheaves, joints
and plate edges very gradually wear. Chain “stretch” can
be measured using a manufacturers wear scale or steel
tape. When chains have elongated 3% they must be
removed and replaced. Refer to Table 2-3 for proper chain
specifications and allowable stretch tolerances. Peening
and wear of chain plate edges are caused by sliding over
a chain worn contact face of a sheave, or unusually heavy
loads. All of the above require replacement of the chain
and correction of the cause. Chain side wear, noticeable
when pin heads and outside plates show a definite wear
pattern, is caused by misalignment of the sheave/chain
anchors and must be corrected promptly. Do not repair
chains; if a section of chain is damaged, replace the entire
chain set.
Rust and Corrosion: Rust and corrosion will cause a
major reduction in the load carrying capacity of the chain,
because these are primary reasons for side plate cracking. The initial lubrication at the factory is applied in a hot
dip tank to assure full penetration into the joint. Do not
steam clean or degrease chains. At time of chain installation, factory lube must be supplemented by a maintenance program to provide a film of oil on the chains at all
times. If chains are corroded, they must be inspected,
especially the outside plates, for cracks in-line with the
pins. If cracks are found, replace the chain; if no cracks
are discovered, lubricate the chains by dipping in heated
oil, and reinstall on the machine. Keep chains lubricated.

Fatigue Cracks: Fatigue is a phenomenon that affects
most metals, and is the most common cause of chain
plate failures. Fatigue cracks are found through the link
holes, perpendicular (90 degrees) from the pin in-line
position. Inspect chains carefully after long time use and
heavy loading for this type of crack. If any cracks are discovered, replace all chains, as seemingly sound plates
