which must b e ob serve d d uring mai ntena nce o f the
aerial platform. It i s of ut most i mport ance t hat m aintenance personnel pay strict attention to these warnings and precautions to avoid possible injury to
themselves or others, or damage to the equipment.
A maintenance prog ra m mus t be follo we d to e nsu re
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 du ring
maintenance are inserted at the appropriate point in
the manual. The se precaution s are, for the m ost
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 weight. Never attempt
to move heavy parts without the aid of a mechanic al
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 RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER/OPERATOR.
A.B HYDRAULIC SYSTEM SAFETY
It should be noted that the machines hydraulic systems operate at extremely high potentially dangerous pressures. Every effort should be made to
relieve any syst em pressu re pri or to disc onnecting
or removing any portion of the system.
Relieve system pressure by cycling the applicable
control several times with the engine stopped and
ignition on, to direct any line pressure back into the
reservoir. Pressure feed lines to system components
can then be disconnected with minimal fluid loss.

and specific procedures are designed to provide the safest and most ef fici ent main tenance for use b y person nel
responsible for ensuring the correct installation and operation of machine components an d systems.
WHEN AN ABNORMAL CONDITION IS NOTED AND PROCEDURES
CONTAINED HEREIN DO NOT SPECIFICALLY RELATE TO THE
NOTED IRREGULARITY, WORK SHOULD BE STOPPED AND
TECHNICALLY QUALIFIED GUIDAN CE OBTAINED BEFORE
WORK IS RESUMED.
The maintenance procedures included consist of servicing and component removal and installation, disassembly
and assembly, inspection, lubrication and cleaning. Information on any special tools or test equipment is also provided where applicable.
2.2SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
GUIDELINES
General
The following inf ormation is prov ided to a ssist you in t he
use and application of servicing and maintenance procedures contained in this chapter.
Safety and Workmanship
Your s afety, and that of others, is the first conside ration
when engaging in the maintenance of equipment. Always
be conscious of weight. Never atte mpt 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 ad equate support
is provided.
and fittings themselves. As soon as a line or component is disconnected, cap or cover all openings to
prevent entry of foreign matter.
3. 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 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
4. 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 perpend icular as possibl e to top of par t being
lifted.
5. Should it be necessary to remove a c omponent on
an angle, keep in mind that the capacity of an eyebolt or similar bracket lessens, as th e an gle between
the supporting structure and the component
becomes less than 90°.
6. If a part resists removal, check to see whether all
nuts, bolts, ca bles, br acke ts, wir ing, et c., have been
removed and that no adjacent parts are interfering.
Component Disassembly and Reassembly
When disassembling or r e assembling a comp on ent, complete the procedural steps in sequence. Do not part ially
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, ot her than
those recommended, without obtaining proper approval.
Pressure-Fit Parts
When assembling pressure-fit parts, use an “anti-seize” or
molybdenum disulfid e base co mpound to l ubricate the
mating surface.
Cleanliness
1. The most important single item in preserving the
long service life of a machine is to keep dirt and foreign materials out of the vital components. Precautions have been taken to safeguard against this.
Shields, covers, seals, and filters are provided to
keep air, fuel, and oil supplies clean; however, these
items must be maintained on a scheduled basis in
order to function properly.
2. At any time when air, fuel, or oil lines are disconnected, clear adjacent areas as well as the openings
Bearings
1. 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.
2. Discard bearings if the races and balls (or rollers)
are pitted, scored, or burned.
3. If a 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.
3120892– JLG Sizzor –2-1
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
4. 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 in sta lled on a sh aft, apply pres su re 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 eq uivalent material
and thickness. Be sure to cut holes in the right location, as
blank gaskets can cause serious system damage.
Bolt Usage and Torque Applica tion
1. 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.
2. Unless specific torque requirements are given within
the text, standard torque values should be used on
heat-treated bolts, studs, and steel nuts, in accordance with recommended shop practices.
Hydraulic Lines and Electrical Wiring
Clearly mark or tag hyd rau lic lines and electrical wiring, as
well as their receptacles, when disco nnec ting or removing
them from the unit. This will assure that they are correctly
reinstalled.
Hydraulic System
1. Keep the system clean. If evidence of metal or rubber particles is found in the hydraulic system, drain
and flush the entire system.
2. 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 lubricat ion and
servicing are shown in Section 1.
2.3LUBRICATION INFORMATION
Hydraulic System
1. The primary enemy of a hydraulic system is contamination. Contaminants enter the system by various
means, e.g., using inad equate h ydra ulic oil, a llowin g
moisture, grease, filings, sealing c om po nents, sand,
etc., to enter when performing maintenance, or by
permitting the pump to cavitate due to insufficient
system warm-up or leaks in the p ump supply (suction) lines.
2. The design and manufacturing tolerances of the
component working parts are very close, therefore,
even the smallest amount of dirt or foreign matter
entering a system can cause wear or damage to the
components and generally results in faulty operation. Every precaution must be taken to keep
hydraulic oil clean, including reserve oil in storage.
Hydraulic system filters should be checked,
cleaned, and/or replaced as necessary, at the specified intervals required in the Lubrication Chart in
Section 1 and the Preventive Maintenance and
Inspection Chart in this section. Always examine filters for evidence of metal particles.
3. Cloudy oils indicate a high moisture content which
permits organic gr owth, resulting in oxidation or corrosion. If this condition occurs, the system must be
drained, flushed, and refilled with clean oil.
4. It is not advisable to mix oils of different brands or
types, except as recommended, as they may not
contain the same required additives or be of comparable viscositie s. Good grade mineral oils, w ith viscosities suited to the ambient temperatures in which
the machine is operating, are recommended for use.
Lubrication
Service applicable components with the amount, type,
and grade of lubricant recommended in this manu al, 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.
NOTE: Met al p articl e s m ay appea r in th e oi l or f i lt er s o f n ew
machines due to the wear-in of meshing components.
Hydraulic Oil
1. Refer to Section1 for recommendations for viscosity
ranges.
2. JLG recommends Mobilfluid 424, which has an SAE
viscosity of 10W-30 and a viscosity index of 152.
2-2– JLG Sizzor –3120892
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
NOTE: Start-up of hydraulic system with oil temperatures
below -26° C (-15° F). is not recommended. If it is
necessar y to sta r t the sy ste m in a sub- zero envi ron ment, it will be necessary to heat the oil with a low
density, 100VAC heater to a minimum temperature
of -26° C (-15° F).
3. The only exception to the above is to drain and fill
the system with Mobil DTE 11 oil or its equivalent.
This will allow start up at temperatures down to -29°
C (-20 ° F). However, use of this oil will give poor
performance at temperatures above 49° C (120° F).
Systems using DTE 11 oil should not be operated at
temperatures above 94°C (200°F). under any condition.
Changing Hydraulic Oil
1. Use of any of the recommended crankcase or
hydraulic oils eliminates the need for changing the
oil on a regular basis. However, filter elements must
be changed after the first 50 hours of operation and
every 300 hours thereafter. If it is necessary to
change the oil, use only those oils meeting or
exceeding the specifications appearing in this manual. If unable to obtain the same type of oil supplied
with the machine, consult local supplier for assistance in selecting the proper equivalent. Avoid mixing petroleum and synthetic base oils. JLG
Industries recommends changing the hydraulic oil
every two years.
2. Use every precaution to keep the hydraulic oil clean.
If the oil must be poured from the original container
into another, be sure to clean all possible contaminants from the service container. Always clean the
mesh element of the filter and replace the cartridge
any time the system oil is changed.
3. While the unit is shut dow n, a good preventive maintenance measure is to make a thorough inspection
of all hydraulic components, lines, fittings, etc., as
well as a functional check of each system, before
placing the machine back in service.
Lubrication Specifications
Specified lubricants, as recommended by the component
manufacturers, are always the best choice, howe ver,
multi-purpose greases usually have the qualities which
meet a variety of single purpose gre ase requirements.
Should any question arise regarding the use of greases in
maintenance stock, consult your local supplier for evaluation.
2.4CYLINDERS - THEORY OF OPERATION
Cylinders are of the double acting type. The Lift and Steer
systems incorporate double acting cylinders. A double
acting cylinder is one that requires oil flow to operate the
cylinder rod in both directions. Directing oil (by actuating
the corresponding control valve to the piston side of the
cylinder) forces the piston t o travel t oward the rod end of
the barrel, extending the cylinder rod (piston attached to
rod). When the oil flow is stopped, movement of the rod
will stop. By directing oil to the rod side of the cylinder, the
piston will be forced in the opposite direction and the cylinder rod will retract.
A holding valve is used in the Lift circuit to prevent retraction of the cylinder rod should a hydraulic line rupture or a
leak develop between the c ylinder and it s relate d control
valve.
2.5VALVES - THEORY OF OPERATION
Solenoid Control Valves (Bang-Bang)
Control valves us ed are four-way thre e-positi on solen oid
valves of the sliding spool de sign. When a cir cuit is activated and the control valve solenoid energizes, the spool
is shifted and the corresponding work port opens to permit oil fl ow t o the co mpone nt in th e s elec ted circ uit, wi th
the opposite work port opening to reservoir. Once the circuit is deactivated (control returned to neutral), the valve
spool returns to neutral (center) and oil flow is then
directed through the valve body and returns to reservoir. A
typical control valve consists of the valve body, sliding
spool, and two solenoid assemblies. The spool is
machine fitted in the bore of the valve body. Lands on the
spool divide the bore into various chambers, which, when
the spool is shifted, align with corresponding ports in the
valve body open to common flow. At the same time other
ports would be blocked t o flow. The spool is springloaded to center position, therefore when the control is
released, the spool automatically returns to neutral, prohibiting any flow through the circuit.
Proportional Control Valves
The proportional contr ol valves provide a po wer output
matching that required by th e load. A sma ll line connec ted
to a load sensing port feeds load pressure back to a
sequence valve. The sequence valve senses the difference between the load and pump outlet pressure, and
varies the pump displacement to keep the difference constant. This differential pressure is applied across the
valve’s meter-in spool, with the effect that pump flow is
determined by the degree of spool opening, independent
of load pressure. Return lines are connected together,
simplifying routing of return flow and to help reduce cavitation. Load sensing lines connect through shuttl e valves
to feed the highest load signal back to the sequence
valve. Integral actuator port relief valves, anti-cavitation
check valves, and load check valves are standard.
3120892– JLG Sizzor –2-3
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
Relief Valves
Main relief valves are installed at various points within the
hydraulic system to protect associat ed systems a nd components against excessive pressure. Excessive pressure
can be developed when a cylinder reaches its limit of
travel and the flow of pressurized fluid continues from the
system control. The relief valve provides an alternate path
for the continuing flow from the pump, thus preventing
rupture of the cylinder, hydraulic line or fitting. Complete
failure of the system pump is also avoided by relieving circuit pressure. The relief v alve is installe d in the circuit
between the pump outlet (pressure line) and the cyli nder
of the circuit, generally as an integral part of the system
valve bank. Relief pressures are set sl ightly higher than
the load requirement, with the valve dive rting excess
pump delivery back to the reservoir when operating pressure of the component is reached.
Crossover Relief Valves
Crossover relief valves are used in circuits where the actuator requir es an ope ratin g pressur e lowe r than th at supplied to the system. When the circuit is activated and the
required pres sure at th e actua tor is dev elop ed, the cross over relief diverts excess pump flow to the reservoir. Individual, integral reliefs are provided for each side of the
circuit.
2.7WEAR PADS
Sliding Pads
The original thickness of the sliding pads is 51 mm (2 in).
Replace sliding pads when worn to 48 mm (1.875 in).
2.8CYLINDER CHECKING PROCEDURES

2.6COMPONENT FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
Hydraulic Pump
The machine is equipped with two hydraulic pumps, a
function pump and a drive pump. The function pump is a
single-section gear pump that controls the lift and steer
functions and provides an output of 11.7 lpm (3.1 gpm).
The drive pump is a single-section piston pump t hat controls the drive function and provides an output of 56.8 lpm
(15 gpm).
Lift Cylinder Counterbalance/Manual
Descent Valve
The lift cylinder counterbalance/manual descent valve is
located on top of the lift cylinder. The counterbalance
valve is used to hold the platform in place when raised. A
cable is connected to the valve which, when pulled, manually opens the lift down port and allows the platform to be
lowered in the event hydraulic power is lost.

of cylinder. There will be initial weeping of hydraulic
fluid which can be caught in a suitable container.
After the initial discharge, there should be no further
leakage from the retract port.
3. Activate motor and activate cylinder extend function.
Check retract port for leakage.
4. If cylinder leakage is 6-8 drops per minute or more,
piston seals are defective and must be replaced. If
cylinder retract port leakage is less than 6-8 drops
per minute, carefully reconnect hose to retract port
and retract cylinder.
5. With cylinder fully retracted, shut down motor and
carefully disconnect hydraulic hose from cylinder
extend port.
