NOTE: With the power selector switch in the off position, the
key can be removed in order to avoid unauthorized
use of the machine.
Low speed is the de fault s peed fo r all fun ction s when
the platform is fully lowered. When the platform is
elevated, all functions operate in creep speed only.
2. Emergency Stop Switch
A two-position, red, mushroom-shaped emergency
stop switch, when positioned to on (pulled out) with
the power selector switch positioned to ground, furnishes operating power to the ground control station. In addition, the switch can be used to turn off
power to the function controls in the event of an
emergency. Power is turned on by pulling the switch
out (on), and is turned off by pushing the switch in
(off).
3. Lift Switch
A three-position, momentary-contact switch provides raising and lowering of the platform when
positioned to up or down.
2. Enable Switch
The enable switch is located on the left side
of the platform control box. This switch must be
depressed and held before and during actuation of
the lift function and for the duration of lift. The enable
switch works in conjunction with the lift switch.
3. Drive
The joystick is used to drive the machine forward
and reverse. To drive, the red trigger on the front of
the joystick must be depressed and held. Then the
joystick must be pushed forward for forward travel or
pulled backward for reverse travel. The adjustment
between low and high speed is determined by the
joystick travel. When motor is first activated you are
in low speed, high speed is achieved by moving the
joystick to the complete forward position.
NOTE: When the machine is raised, and a door is opened,
the machine will not drive.
The drive system may make an occ asion al cav itatio n
noise when driving with steer wheels turned all the
way in one direction or while going down hill. This
noise is a byproduct of the drive system.
4. Lift
The lift switch, when used in conjunction with the
enable switch, will raise or lower the machine. Lift is
activated by pressing and holding the enable and
moving the lift switch forward (lift up) or backward
(lift down).
4. Circuit Breaker
A push button reset 15 Amp circuit breaker, located
behind the pump/motor in the left side door, returns
interrupted power to the machine functions when
depressed.
5. Hourmeter
The machine may be equipped with an hourmeter to
indicate the number of hours the machine has been
operated. The hourmeter operates when a machine
function is operating or when key switch and emergency stop switch are on.
Platform Control Station
1. Emergency Stop Switch

3.5CONTROLS AND INDICATORS FOR
PROPORTIONAL CONTROL
The machine is equipped with control panels that use
symbols instead of words to indicate control functions.
Refer to Symbols figure for these symbols and their corresponding functions.
JLG SMART™ System
The machine is controlled by the JLG SMART™ System, a
24 volt, multiplex motor controller which works in conjunction with a joystick and several switches to operate all
machine functions.
Special operating characteristics of the JLG SMART™
System are noted where applicable. Special attention
should be paid to these operating characteristics, as they
may be somewhat different from those on previous JLG
machines.
IT IS A GOOD PRACTICE TO AVOID PRESSURE-WASHING ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS. SHOULD PRESSUREWASHING 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.
Ground Control Station
NOTE: Refer to the Ground Control Station for Non Propor-
tional Control machines.
3120854– JLG Lift –3-5
SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTROL
Platform Control Station
1. Emergency Stop Switch - A two-position, red,
mushroom-shaped emergency stop switch functions to provide power to the platform control station
and also to turn off power to the platform function
controls in the event of an emergency. With the
power selector switch positioned to platform, power
is turned on by pulling the switch out (on), and is
turned off by pushing the switch in (off). Turning the
emergency stop switch off and then on again will
reset the smart system if a system fault has occurred
and the machine has shut down.
2. Membrane Switch Panel - The function switches at
the platform control station are an integral part of a
membrane switch panel, which contains switches
for drive, high drive, lift, powered deck extension (if
equipped), and posi-trac, plus a red tilt indicator
light (if equipped). The drive, lift and powered deck
extension function switches have a small green light
indicator beside them which is illuminated when that
function is active. The function switch light indicators
will flash once or twice, then go out, when the platform emergency stop switch is turned on. If the light
indicators fail to flash or if they fail to stop flashing,
re-cycle the emergency stop switch. To activate the
drive, lift, and powered deck functions, press the
applicable function switch, then activate the joystick
within three seconds to operate the function. If the
joystick is not activated within three seconds, power
is turned off to the function switch and the switch
must be pressed again. The posi-trac and high drive
functions are used in conjunction with the drive function. Do not try to operate the drive, lift, and powered
deck extension functions simultaneously. If the drive,
lift, and powered deck extension functions are
selected simultaneously, no function will operate. If
this occurs, pause, then press only one of the function switches to activate the function. Refer to the following paragraphs for more information about the
function switches.
3. Controller(Joystick) - The joystick controls three
functions: speed, direction, and powered deck
extension (if equipped). The joystick is used in conjunction with the trigger switch and controls the
drive, high drive, lift, and powered deck extension
switches to control speed and direction for the
selected function. The drive, high drive and posi-trac
functions may be operated simultaneously, but the
drive, lift, and powered deck extension functions
must be operated independently of each other. If the
drive, lift, and powered deck extension functions are
selected simultaneously, no function will operate. If
this occurs, pause, then press only one of the function switches to activate the function. To operate the
joystick, squeeze the red trigger switch, then position the joystick to forward or reverse, as desired
5. Steer Switch - The thumb-operated steer switch,
located on top of the joystick, works in conjunction
with the trigger switch and activates the steer wheels
in the direction the switch is moved (left or right).
6. Drive Switch - The drive switch, when used in con-
junction with the joystick, provides for driving the
machine in forward or reverse. Drive is activated by
pressing the drive switch, in conjunction with the
trigger switch, and moving the joystick forward (forward) or backward (reverse). Drive speed is determined by the distance the joystick is moved forward
or backward. Increased drive speed is possible
when the high drive speed switch is pressed either
simultaneously with the drive switch or while operating the drive function. The drive switch is part of the
enable circuit, which provides power to the joystick
and the drive function for 3 seconds when the drive
switch is pressed. If the joystick is not activated
within 3 seconds, the drive switch must be pressed
again before activating the joystick. When the joystick is returned to the center off position, the operator has 3 seconds to re-activate the joystick or select
another function before power is removed by the
enable circuit. In addition, the posi-trac switch can
be engaged while operating the drive function to
give a more evenly distributed oil flow to each drive
motor. Do not try to operate the drive, lift, and powered deck extension functions simultaneously. If the
drive, lift, and powered deck extension functions are
selected simultaneously, no function will operate. If
this occurs, pause, then press only one of the function switches to activate the function
NOTE: The machine is equipped with a Pothole Protection
System which lowers automatically when the platform is raised. If the Pothole Prot ect ion S ystem doe s
not fully lower, the DRIVE function is cut out until the
platform is completely lowered.
3-6– JLG Lift –3120854
SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTROL
7. High Drive Speed Switch - The high drive speed
switch, when used in conjunction with the joystick
being operated in the drive mode, provides additional oil flow to the drive circuit for increased travel
speed. To operate high drive, depress the high drive
speed switch either simultaneously with the drive
switch or while operating the drive function.
DO NOT USE HIGH DRIVE SPEED WHEN DRIVING IN
CLOSE QUARTERS OR WHEN DRIVING IN REVERSE.
IF HIGH DRIVE IS SELECTED WHEN OIL TEMPERATURE IS VERY COLD (BELOW 4°C 40° F.) HIGH DRIVE
WILL NOT ENGAGE IMMEDIATELY. AS OIL WARMS
(ABOVE 4°C 40° F.) IF HIGH DRIVE IS SELECTED, IT
WILL ENGAGE AUTOMATICALLY WHILE DRIVING.
NOTE: The High Drive Speed switch will cut-out when the
platform is raised above the stowed position, returning drive speed to low until the platform is lowered
completely.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE LIFT AND DRIVE FUNCTIONS AT THE SAME TIME; NO FUNCTION WILL OPERATE AND IT
WILL BE NECESSARY TO RE-SELECT A SINGLE FUNCTION.
WHEN OPERATING LIFT DOWN MOVE THE JOYSTICK TO THE
FULL DOWN (FULLY BACKWARD) POSITION.
9. Positive Traction (Posi-Trac) Switch - This switch,
when pressed, activates a solenoid on the main control valve, forcing oil through a flow divider in the
drive circuit, maintaining hydraulic oil flow to both
drive motors for improved traction. The positive traction (Posi-trac) switch activates the positive traction
solenoid for a preset time when the positive traction
(Posi-trac) switch is pressed. Positive traction is
automatically de-activated after the preset time is
out. This function will only operate when the drive
function is activated.
10. Tilt Alarm Warning Horn (If Equipped) - The Tilt
Alarm Warning Horn is activated by the Tilt Alarm
Switch when the chassis is on a slope. (See Figure
3-1, Tilt for the appropriate degree of tilt). When the
machine is equipped with a powered deck extension, the horn is activated when the deck extension
is being extended or retracted.
DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE IF HIGH DRIVE SPEED OPERATES
WHEN PLATFORM IS RAISED ABOVE THE STOWED POSITION.
8. Lift Switch - The lift switch, when used in conjunc-
tion with the joystick, provides for raising and lowering the platform. Lift is activated by pressing the lift
switch and moving the joystick forward (lift up) or
backward (lift down). Lift up speed is determined by
the distance the joystick is moved forward. Lift down
speed is non-adjustable, and lift down is attained by
moving the joystick fully backward. The lift switch is
part of the enable circuit, which provides power to
the joystick and the lift function for 3 seconds when
the lift switch is pressed. If the joystick is not activated within 3 seconds, the lift switch must be
pressed again before activating the joystick. When
the joystick is returned to the center off position, the
operator has 3 seconds to re-activate the joystick or
select another function before power is removed by
the enable circuit. Do not try to operate the drive, lift,
and powered deck extension functions simultaneously. If the drive, lift, and powered deck extension functions are selected simultaneously, no
function will operate. If this occurs, pause, then
press only one of the function switches to activate
the function.
IF TILT ALARM IS ON WHEN PLATFORM IS RAISED, LOWER
PLATFORM COMPLETELY, THEN REPOSITION MACHINE SO
THAT IT IS LEVEL BEFORE RAISING PLATFORM.
11. Tilt Alarm Warning Light (Red) (If Equipped) - A
warning light on the membrane switch panel that
illuminates when the chassis is on a severe slope
(See Figure 3-1, Tilt for the appropriate degree of
tilt).
12. Horn (If Equipped) - This push-button switch, when
activated, permits the operator to warn jobsite personnel when the machine is operating in the area.
13. Battery Discharge Indicator (If Equipped) - The
battery discharge indicator is a gauge that provides
a visual indication of the condition of the batteries.

5.4EMERGENCY OPERATION
Use of Ground Controls
3. Cranes, forklift trucks or other equipment which may
be available are to be used to remove platform
occupants and stabilize motion of the machine in
case machine controls are inadequate or malfunction when used.
Platform Caught Overhead
If the platform becomes jammed or snagged in overhead
structures or equipment, do not continue operation of the
machine from either the platform or the ground until the
operator and all personnel are safely moved to a secure
location. Only then should an attempt be made to free the
platform using any necessary equipment and personnel.
Do not operate controls to cause one or more wheels to
leave the ground.
Righting of Tipped Machine
A forktruck of suitable capacity or equivalent equipment
should be placed under the elevated side of the chassis,
with a crane or other suitable lifting equipment used to lift
the platform while the chassis is lowered by the forklift or
other equipment.
Post-Incident Inspection
Following any accident, thoroughly inspect the machine
and test all functions first from the ground controls, then
from the platform controls. Do not lift above 3 meters until
you are certain that all damage has been repaired, if
required, and that all controls are operating correctly.
KNOW HOW TO USE THE GROUND CONTROLS IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION.
Ground personnel must be thoroughly familiar with the
machine operating characteristics and the ground control
functions. Training should include operation of the
machine, review and understanding of this section and
hands-on operation of the controls in simulated emergencies.
Operator Unable to Control Machine
IF THE PLATFORM OPERATOR IS PINNED, TRAPPED OR UNABLE
TO OPERATE OR CONTROL THE MACHINE.
1. Operate the machine from ground controls ONLY
with the assistance of other personnel and equipment (cranes, overhead hoists, etc.) as may be
required to safely remove the danger or emergency
condition.
2. Other qualified personnel on the platform may use
the platform controls. DO NOT CONTINUE OPERATION IF CONTROLS DO NOT FUNCTION NORMALLY.
