SECTION A. INTRODUCTION - MAINTENANCE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
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 followed to ensure that the machine is
safe to operate.
MODIFICATION OR ALTERATION OF AN AERIAL WORK PLATFORM
SHALL BE MADE ONLY WITH WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM THE MANUFACTURER.
The specific precautions to be observed during 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 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.
SINCE THE MACHINE MANUFACTURER HAS NO DIRECT CONTROL OVER
THE FIELD INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE, SAFETY IN THIS AREA
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER/OPERATOR.
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 system
pressure prior to disconnecting or removing any portion of the system.

2.3SERVICE AND GUIDELINES
General
The following information is provided to assist you in the use
and application of servicing and maintenance procedures
contained in this book.
Safety and Workmanship
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 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.
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,
clean 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.
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.
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
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 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.
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 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.
Bolt Usage and Torque Application
Components Removal and Installation
1. 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.
2. 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°.
3. 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.
1. Self locking fasteners, such as nylon insert and thread
deforming locknuts, are not intended to be reinstalled
after removal. Always use new replacement hardware
when installing locking fasteners.
2. 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.
3. 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. (See Torque Chart Section 1.)
31212732-5
Page 28
SECTION 2 - GENERAL
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
1. Keep the system clean. If evidence of metal or rubber
particles are found in the hydraulic system, drain and
flush the entire system.
2. Disassemble and reassemble parts on a clean work surface. Clean all metal parts with non-flammable cleaning
solvent. Lubricate components, as required, to aid
assembly.
Lubrication
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.
Battery
Clean battery, using a non-metallic brush and a solution of
baking soda and water. Rinse with clean water. After cleaning,
thoroughly dry battery and coat terminals with an anti corrosion compound.
2.4LUBRICATION AND INFORMATION
Hydraulic System
1. The primary enemy of a hydraulic system is contamination. Contaminants enter the system by various means,
e.g., using inadequate hydraulic oil, allowing moisture,
grease, filings, sealing components, sand, etc., to enter
when performing maintenance, or by permitting the
pump to cavitate due to insufficient quantity of oil in
supply tube.
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. Always examine filters for
evidence of metal particles.
3. Cloudy oils indicate a high moisture content which permits organic growth, 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,
as they may not contain the same required additives or
be of comparable viscosities. Good grade mineral oils,
with viscosities suited to the ambient temperatures in
which the machine is operating, are recommended for
use.
NOTE: Metal particles may appear in the oil or filters of new
machines due to the wear-in of meshing components.
Hydraulic Oil
1. Refer to Section 1 for recommendations for viscosity
ranges.
2. JLG recommends DTE10 or Excel 15 hydraulic oil, which
has an SAE viscosity of 10W-30 and a viscosity index of
152.
NOTE: Start-up of hydraulic system with oil temperatures below -
15°F (-26°C) is not recommended. If it is necessary to start
the system in a sub-zero environment, it will be necessary
to heat the oil with a low density, electrical heater to a minimum temperature of -15°F (-26°C).
2-63121273
Page 29
SECTION 2 - GENERAL
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 annually unless operating in extreme conditions. 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 annually.
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 replace the filter and clean
magnet any time the system oil is changed.
3. While the unit is shut down, 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.
NOTE: Refer to section 4 for oil checking and oil changing proce-
dure.

MAX. ACCEPTABLE DRIFT
IN 10 MINUTES
Specified lubricants, as recommended by the component
manufacturers, are always the best choice, however, multi-purpose greases usually have the qualities which meet a variety of
single purpose grease requirements. Should any question
arise, regarding the use of greases in maintenance stock, consult your local supplier for evaluation. Refer to Section 1, Table
1-11, Lubrication Specifications for an explanation of the lubricant key designations.
Drift is to be measured at the cylinder rod with a calibrated
dial indicator. The cylinder oil must be at ambient temperature
and temperature stabilized.
The cylinder must have the normal load, which is the normal
platform load applied.
If the cylinder passes this test, it is acceptable.
NOTE:
This information is based on 6 drops per minute cylinder leakage.

Battery Charger Maintenance
USE CHARGER ONLY ON BATTERY SYSTEMS WITH AN ALGORITHM SELECTED
THAT IS APPROPRIATE TO THE SPECIFIC BATTERY TYPE. OTHER USAGE MAY
CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY AND DAMAGE.
LEAD ACID BATTERIES MAY GENERATE EXPLOSIVE HYDROGEN GAS DURING
NORMAL OPERATION. KEEP SPARKS, FLAMES, AND SMOKING MATERIALS
AWAY FROM BATTERIES. PROVIDE ADEQUATE VENTILATION DURING CHARGING. NEVER CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
Battery Charger Troubleshooting
NO LIGHTS AT ALL
No Lights at all indicate that AC power to the charger is not
connected or that the AC voltage is too low. It could also indicate an internal failure in the charger.
1. Check the connections to AC power. Check for AC voltage between 90 and 260 VAC at the charger.
2. If the AC voltage is verified to be correct at the connection to the charger, and the charger still displays no
lights at all, return the charger for service.
FAULT LED FLASHING
The Fault LED flashes to indicate the micro-controller inside
the battery charger has detected a fault. The fault detected is
indicated by the number of flashes. Count the number of
flashes to determine the fault.
With any battery system, the most common problem will be a
faulty battery connection. Because of the high likelihood of a
battery connection problem, it is always worthwhile to confirm that all connections are good before checking for any
other problems.
[1 Flash] - High Battery Voltage
STUDY ALL BATTERY MANUFACTURERS’ SPECIFIC PRECAUTIONS SUCH AS
RECOMMENDED RATES OF CHARGE AND REMOVING OR NOT REMOVING CELL
CAPS WHILE CHARGING.
ONLY PLUG THE CHARGER INTO A PROPERLY INSTALLED AND GROUNDED
OUTLET. DO NOT USE GROUND ADAPTORS OR MODIFY PLUG. DO NOT TOUCH
NON-INSULATED PORTION OF OUTPUT CONNECTOR OR NON-INSULATED BATTERY TERMINAL.
DO NOT OPERATE CHARGER IF THE AC SUPPLY CORD IS DAMAGED OR IF THE
CHARGER HAS RECEIVED A SHARP BLOW, BEEN DROPPED, OR OTHERWISE
DAMAGED IN ANY WAY.
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE CHARGER AC SUPPLY BEFORE MAKING OR BREAKING THE (POS/NEG) CONNECTIONS TO THE BATTERY.
DO NOT OPEN OR DISASSEMBLE CHARGER.
1. For flooded lead-acid batteries, regularly check water
levels of each battery cell after charging and add distilled water as required to level specified by battery
manufacturer. Follow the safety instructions recommended by the battery manufacturer.
2. Make sure charger connections to battery terminals are
tight and clean.
1. Indicates a high battery voltage. Check that the battery
charger voltage is consistent with the battery pack voltage. The first two digits of the four digit model name
indicate the battery voltage the charger supports.
2. Check for wiring errors.
3. This fault will automatically clear and the charger will
restart charging when this problem is removed.
4. High battery voltage could also occur if there is another
source charging the battery. Disconnect any other
sources during charging.
5. If this problem does not clear after the battery voltage is
confirmed to be less than 2.4V per cell, return the charger for service.
[2 Flashes] - Low Battery Voltage
1. Indicates either a battery failure, no battery connected,
or a lower than expected battery voltage. Check the
battery and battery connections.
2. Check the nominal battery voltage. The first two digits
of the four digit model name indicate the battery voltage the charger supports. Confirm that a nominal battery voltage is the same as the charger voltage.
3. Do not expose charger to oil or to direct heavy water
spraying when cleaning vehicle.
3. This fault will clear automatically when the low battery
voltage problem is rectified.
31212733-5
Page 36
SECTION 3 - CHASSIS & SCISSOR ARMS
4. If this problem does not clear after the battery voltage is
confirmed to be higher than 1.0V per cell and all connections are good, return the charger for service.
[3 Flashes] - Charge Time-out
Indicates the battery failed to charge within the allowed time.
This could occur if the battery is of larger capacity than the
algorithm is intended for. In unusual cases it could mean charger output is reduced due to high ambient temperature. It can
also occur if the battery is damaged, old, or in poor condition.
1. Check the battery for damage such as shorted cells and
insufficient water. Try the charger on a good battery.
2. If the same fault occurs on a good battery, check the
connections on the battery and connection to AC, and
the AC voltage itself.
3. Confirm that the nominal battery pack voltage is the
same as the battery charger voltage.
4. This fault must be cleared manually by unplugging the
AC, waiting 30 seconds and reconnecting the AC power.
5. If a charger displays this fault on a battery pack, and the
pack is of questionable status, reset the charger by disconnecting AC for 30 seconds, and then reconnect the
AC to start a new charge cycle. After a few charge cycles,
this problem could stop occurring as the pack "recovers."
[4 Flashes] - Check Battery
This fault indicates the battery pack could not be trickle
charged up to the minimum level required for the normal
charge cycle to be started.
1. Check that none of the battery pack connections
between modules are reversed or incorrectly connected.
2. Check that one or more cells in the battery are not
shorted.
3. Confirm that the nominal battery pack voltage is the
same as the battery charger voltage.
4. Try the charger on a good battery.
5. If this fault occurs, the battery is likely in poor condition.
Try to recover the pack with a charger that can charge
the individual cells - such as an automotive charger. Be
sure to set this charger to the appropriate voltage - 6V
per 6V battery, 12V per 12V string/battery.
[5 Flashes] - Over Temperature
This fault indicates the charger has become too hot during
operation. Though not damaging to the charger, charge time
will be extended significantly.
1. This fault indication will not clear automatically, but the
charger will restart charging automatically when the
temperature drops. The fault indication must be cleared
manually by unplugging the AC, waiting 30 seconds and
reconnecting the AC power.
2. If possible, move the machine to a cooler location.
3. Confirm that dirt or mud is not blocking the cooling fins
of the charger. Clean the charger. Rinse the charger with
a low pressure hose if required. Do no use high pressure.
Do not us a pressure washer.
[6 Flashes] - Over Load/Over Temperature
This fault indicates that the batteries will not accept charge
current, or an internal fault has been detected in the charger.
This fault will nearly always be set within the first 30 seconds
of operation. If it occurs after the charger has started charging
normally, complete the following steps.
1. Try to clear the fault by unplugging the AC, waiting 30
seconds and reconnecting the ac power.
2. Check all battery connections. Look for a high resistance
connection.The most likely reason for this fault is a fault
in the battery such as a bad battery connection, an open
cell, or insufficient water.
3. This fault will occur if an internal fuse inside the charger
blows. If the green wire is shorted to ground even
momentarily, this fuse will blow. To check the fuse, measure with an ohmmeter between the green and red
wires with the AC disconnected. If a short circuit is not
measured, the fuse has blown. Return unit to a service
depot to have this fuse replaced.
4. If this fault occurs after battery charging has started,
confirm that AC power was not interrupted and that all
battery connections are good.
5. If all battery connections are good, an internal fault has
been detected and the charger must be brought to a
qualified service depot.

These symptoms indicate over-charging or high battery temperature. These symptoms are unlikely to be caused by too
high a charge current since the maximum charge current of
the charger will be small compared to even a moderately sized
battery pack. The most likely cause for this problem is incorrect charge algorithm setting and/or high ambient temperatures. For correct charge algorithm setting, refer www.jlg.com

3.11 TRACTION SYSTEM
Theory of Operation
The armatures (rotating windings) of the separately-excited
drive motors are wired in parallel to the Power Module's -T and
+B terminals (ZAPI) . The +B Terminal is always at the same
voltage as the +B (Battery Voltage when the Line Contactor is
closed) and allows the module to measure current with the
internal shunt (extremely low impedance). The -T Terminal is
pulled to Ground by the Armature Switch MOSFET's (connected to -B Terminal).
To provide variable speed control, the Armature MOSFET transistors switch On and Off at high frequencies (pulse-width
modulation; 16kHz). The Duty Cycle (On & Off time) is varied to
control the voltage applied to the Armatures. When the MOSFET's spend 50% of the period On and 50% Off, approximately
½ of the available Battery Voltage will be applied to the Armatures. Similarly, the MOSFET are On continuously (100% Duty
Cycle) to apply all available Battery Voltage to the Armatures
(as in Driving at Full Speed).
Instead of permanent magnets, the separately-excited drive
motors use electro-magnets (called Field Windings) located in
the stator (non-rotating) portion of the motor. Field windings
are preferable to permanent magnets because the Power
Module can adjust the stator's magnetism for optimum motor
performance. When climbing a grade a low speeds, the Power
Module may apply as much as 40A to the field windings for
more electro-motive force. On level terrain, the Power Module
will apply as little as 14A to the fields for higher rotational
speeds and better electrical efficiency.
The Field Windings also provide direction reversal for traction.
When driving forward, MOSFET switches 1 and 4 turn On to
apply positive potential to F2 and ground potential to F1. In
reverse, MOSFET switches 2 and 3 turn On to apply positive
potential to F1 and ground potential to F2. Theses switches
are pulse-width modulated by the Power Module to maintain
a fixed relationship between Field and Armature Current (also
called the Field Map).
Since the two 24V Armatures are wired in parallel, the drive
motors will attempt to rotate at the same speed under all conditions. If one wheel slips, the wheel with traction will demand
more current as it slows slightly (under load). In this manner,
the system provides effective traction control with no added
complexity.
It is essential that the same amount of field current is supplied
to both drive motors, or one wheel will pull the vehicle (motor
overheating and excessive tire wear would result). The vehicle
uses 12V field windings wired in series to ensure proper distribution of current.
Two electrically-released parking brakes are mounted to the
rear drive motors. The Ground Module energizes the two 24V
electro-magnets when appropriate to allow vehicle motion.
The parking brakes can be released electrically for emergency
vehicle towing.

Common Traction System Difficulties
1. Ground Module Interlocks
There are a variety of interlocks that prevent Drive due
to system events. Before investigating Traction System
issues, examine the JLG Analyzer's HELP Menu while
attempting to Drive from Platform Mode. Refer to the
Section 5 for explanation of the JLG Analyzer Help Messages.
2. Power Module Diagnostic Issues
The Power Module executes a self-test during every
power-up to ensure proper functionality. If a Diagnostic
Issue is detected, the Power Module will not energize
the Main Power Contactor. Instead, it will flash the Green
LED, please refer to ZAPI Power Module Electrical Evaluation - page 3-18.
3. Open-Circuit Motor Armature
This issue will allow the vehicle to drive, but one motor
will handle the entire traction load. Motor overheating
and excessive tire wear will result, along with a lack of
traction control.
This situation can be detected by elevating the vehicle's
front wheels and engaging drive (platform stowed).
Under DIAGNOSTICS - TRACTION, the JLG Analyzer's
ARM CUR display (Armature Current Reading) should be
less than 50A. One wheel will rotate at full speed, while
the other will not rotate at all. The Power Module's selfdiagnostics cannot detect this fault unless both armatures are open-circuit.
To find the source of the difficulty, disconnect main
power at the batteries and investigate the wiring pathways from the Power Controller's M1 and M2 terminals
to the armature on the motor that does not rotate.
Investigate for issues like improper crimps, loose terminals, and corrosion.
4. Short-Circuit Motor Armature
This issue will allow the vehicle to drive very slowly or
not at all. Rapid motor overheating (one motor) will
result.
This situation can be detected by elevating the vehicle's
front wheels and engaging drive (platform stowed).
Under DIAGNOSTICS - TRACTION, the JLG Analyzer's
ARM CUR display (Armature Current Reading) will hover
around 350A. The FLD CUR display (Field Current Reading) will hover around 40A. Neither wheel will rotate at
normal speed, but it will be possible to rotate the drive
wheel by hand. The Power Module's self-diagnostics
cannot detect this fault since the situation appears identical to climbing a steep grade.
pected drive motor leading to the Power Module's M1
and M2 Terminals. Re-test the traction function. If the
remaining drive motor is able to reach full speed (and
Armature Current is less than 50A), the drive motor that
has been disconnected is fault. Investigate for crushed
and burned cables. Check if the drive motor smells
burned.
5. Open-Circuit Motor Field
This issue will allow the vehicle to drive very slowly or
not at all. Rapid motor overheating (both motors) will
result.
This situation can be detected by elevating the vehicle's
front wheels and engaging drive (platform stowed).
Under DIAGNOSTICS - TRACTION, the JLG Analyzer's
ARM CUR display (Armature Current Reading) will hover
around 350A. The FLD CUR display (Field Current Reading) will be erratic or low (less than 10A). Neither wheel
will rotate at normal speed, but it will be possible to
rotate the drive wheel by hand.
To find the source of the difficulty, pull the Main Battery
Disconnect and disconnect the Field Wiring (two blue
wires leading to F1 and F2 Terminals) from the Power
Module. Using a voltmeter set for resistance scale
(Ohms), investigate if there is a short-circuit (less than 5
Ohms) between the two blue wires (this is normal). If
not, investigate for improper crimps, burned cables,
damaged cables, or damaged field windings.
6. Short-Circuit Brake Release
This issue will not allow the vehicle to drive. Rapid motor
overheating (both motors) will result. Continued
attempts to drive the vehicle may result in armature
damage.
This situation can be detected by elevating the vehicle's
front wheels and engaging drive (platform stowed).
Under DIAGNOSTICS - TRACTION, the JLG Analyzer's
ARM CUR display (Armature Current Reading) will hover
around 350A. The FLD CUR display (Field Current Reading) will hover around 40A. Neither wheel will rotate,
and it will be impossible to rotate either drive wheel by
hand. The Ground Module cannot detect this fault during power-up or self-test since energizing the brakes
could pose a hazard. However, it may detect this issue
during Drive (investigate using JLG Analyzer).
To find the source of the difficulty, disconnect main
power at the batteries and disconnect the Armature Wiring (heavy red and black conductors) from the sus-

the machine rear cover, remove the machine rear cover, see
Figure 3-1.
Drive Motor Troubleshooting
1. Turn off power to unit, remove side cover and disconnect main battery power.
2. Disconnect drive motor connections from the Power
Module inside rear cover.
3. Verify field continuity between the blue and orange
wires. If available, use a 4-wire ohmmeter to verify the
field resistance per the applicable motor specification
below.

field winding. In order to make this measurement, it will be
necessary to disconnect the butt-splice on the two orange
wires or use a piercing meter probe. As with the armature,
the field is a very low impedance and should appear to be a
short-circuit for an ordinary voltmeter. High resistance can
signal corrosion, improper crimps, damaged connectors,
damaged cabling, or an open field winding.
• Resistance 15-25 Ohms Yellow to Brown Brake Wires.
The yellow and brown wires are connected to the integral
brake. Improper resistance can signal corrosion, improper
crimps, damaged cabling, or a faulty solenoid.
• Resistance > 1 Mega-Ohms Red Armature Wire toMotor Housing. The armature winding should be electrically isolated from the motor housing. Low resistance may
be an indication of a crushed cable, a burned cable, or a
burned armature winding. Investigate by disconnecting
the drive motor cable from the motor and re-measure
resistance (isolation).
• Resistance > 1 Mega-Ohms Blue Field Wire to MotorHousing. The field winding should also be electrically isolated from the motor housing. Low resistance may be an
indication of a crushed cable, a burned cable, or a burned
field winding. Investigate by disconnecting the drive motor
cable from the motor and re-measure resistance (isolation).
5. Using a dielectric tester, verify that there are no shorts
between the following items:
a. Field connector pins and the case of the motor.
b. Armature terminals and the case of the motor.
c. Field connector pins to the armature terminals.
6. Verify continuity in 2 pin brake connector (yellow and
brown wires). Measure the brake resistance and verify
that it is between 18 and 22 Ohms.
Drive Motor Electrical Evaluation
Several basic electrical tests can be performed on the Drive
Motors. Failure of one of these evaluations is significant and
may indicate that the device is physically damaged.
Refer to Figure 7-2., Resistance Measurement. Disconnect the
Main Battery Disconnect and all drive motor cables during this
analysis.
• Resistance < 2 Ohms Red to Black Armature Wires. The
heavy red and black conductors are connected to the
motor's armature winding. The winding is a very low
impedance and should appear to be a short-circuit for an
ordinary voltmeter. High resistance can signal corrosion,
improper crimps, damaged cabling, worn brushes, a faulty
commutator, or an open armature winding.
• Resistance < 2 Ohms Blue to Orange Field Wires. The
blue and orange conductors are connected to the motor's
• Resistance > 1 Mega-Ohms Red Armature Wire to BlueField Wire. The armature and field windings should also be
electrically isolated from one another. Low resistance may
be an indication of a crushed cable, a burned cable, damaged windings. Investigate by disconnecting the drive
motor cable from the motor and re-measure resistance
(isolation).
Servicing Guidelines
Since the operating environment of industrial equipment varies widely, the following are suggested for periodic maintenance inspection intervals.
• Normal Service – Perform routine inspection (outlined in
the Inspection and Service portion of this section) every
1,000 hours of drive time.
• Severe Service – Perform routine inspection every 500
hours of drive time. Severe service environments are listed
below:
a. Dusty or dirty locations like cement plants, lumber
and flour mills, coal mining, stone quarries, etc.
b. High temperature areas like steel mills, foundries,
etc.
c. Environments with sudden temperature change,
such as in refrigeration plant, etc.

Drive Motor Inspection and Service
NOTE: Refer to Figure 3-25.
1. Carefully blow out any accumulated carbon dust and
dirt from the Commutator End Head (9) and the Frame &
Field Assembly (2) using clean, oil free, compressed air.
2. Replace Brushes (5) that are worn below their usable
length of 0.6 in (1.5 cm), show signs of uneven wear or
signs of overheating, such as discolored brush shunts
and brush springs. Brushes should always be replaced in
complete sets of four. Use identical replacement parts;
do not substitute brush grades as the brushes are
matched to the motor type and application to provide
the best service. Substituting brushes of the wrong
grade can cause premature commutator failure and
excessive brush wear.
3. Make sure the Brush Box Assembly (6) is tight on the
commutator end head. Replace brush box assemblies in
the commutator end head if they are physically damaged or brush holders are loose on the brush plate.
4. Visually inspect the frame and field assembly for overheating or other signs of damage. Check all wiring to
ensure that the insulation is in good condition. Verify
that pole screws are torqued to 250 - 300 in-lb (28.2 -
33.9 Nm). Verify field resistance using a suitable ohmmeter per the appropriate motor specification. Verify that
the field is electrically isolated from the frame using a
dielectric tester. Replace as necessary.
5. Visually inspect the Armature Assembly (3) for signs of
overheating or physical damage. Visually inspect the
seal surface of the shaft for excessive wear. Check for
grounded circuits using a dielectric tester by applying
voltage between the commutator and the shaft. Visually
inspect the commutator for excessive wear and overheating. Replace as necessary.
6. Visually inspect the brake surfaces for excessive wear.
Replace Brake Assembly (11) if necessary.
7. Visually inspect the Wire Harness (1) for frayed insulation, loose terminals, or other damage. Replace as necessary.
Drive Motor Reassembly
NOTE: Refer to Figure 3-25.
1. After inspection and servicing, reassemble the wiring in
the Commutator End Head (9) as originally found.
Ensure the wiring does not contact metal parts and that
it allows the brushes to move unrestricted in the holders. Motor terminals must be assembled as shown Figure 3-27. Torque bottom terminal nut to 110 - 140 in-lb
(12.4 - 15.8 Nm).
2. After the motor has been disassembled, it is recommended that new bearings be installed because bearings may have been damaged during removal. Although
the bearings may appear and feel good, the bearing
races could be “brinelled” (races or balls deformed) and
may exhibit noise and vibration problems or fail within a
relatively short period of service. Press a new bearing
into the commutator end head, pressing on the outer
race only. See Figure 3-26.. Replace the Retaining Ring
(7) in the retaining ring groove.
3. Press the Armature (3) commutator end into the commutator end head and bearing assembly, carefully supporting the inner-race of the bearing. See Figure 3-26.
4. Carefully release the Brush Springs (4) allowing the
Brushes (5) to contact the commutator. Make sure brush
shunts do not interfere with spring movement.
5. Assemble the commutator end head to the Frame &
Field Assembly (2) and tighten the screws to 120 - 140
in-lb (13.6 - 15.8 Nm). Make sure to align the field connection with the notch in the commutator end head.
Seal wires where they exit from commutator end head
with the Grommet (10).
6. Place the Gasket Seal (12) in the bottom of the notch in
the commutator end head. Align wires from the Brake
Assembly (11) into the notch in the commutator end
head. Secure brake assembly to commutator end head
using three bolts.
7. Install Wire Harness (1) to motor by connecting the
brake connectors and securing the armature terminals
to the terminal studs. Crimp the field connection (red/
orange to orange and blue to blue) together and heat
shrink. Motor terminals must be assembled as shown in
Always secure the bottom nut with a wrench as you
tighten the top nut. Torque top nut to 90 - 110 in-lb

3.14 TORQUE HUB SERVICING
THE PROCEDURES WITHIN THIS SECTION APPLY TO ALL MACHINES AND
TORQUE HUBS. PROCEDURES THAT APPLY TO SPECIFIC MACHINES AND
TORQUE HUBS WILL BE SO NOTED BY PROPER SERIAL NUMBERS.
NOTE: These instructions will cover how to completely assemble
and disassemble the Torque-Hub unit. However, if the unit
is under warranty you should contact JLG Industries, Inc.
for a replacement unit. The warranty will no longer be valid
if the unit is disassembled by non-JLG personnel.
TORQUE HUB UNITS SHOULD ALWAYS BE ROLL AND LEAK TESTED BEFORE DIS-
ASSEMBLY AND AFTER ASSEMBLY TO MAKE SURE THAT THE UNIT’S GEARS
AND SEALANTS ARE WORKING PROPERLY.
Torque-Hub units should always be roll and leak tested before
disassembly and after assembly to make sure that the unit's
gears, bearings and seals are working properly. The following
information briefly outlines what to look for when performing
these tests.
IF THE MACHINE IS ON ANY INCLINE, THE WHEELS MUST BE ADEQUATELY
BLOCKED PRIOR TO MANUALLY DISENGAGING THE BRAKES. FAILURE TO DO
SO MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR EVEN DEATH.
Leak Test
The purpose of a leak test is to make sure the unit is air tight.
You can tell if your unit has a leak if the pressure gauge reading on your leak checking fitting starts to fall after the unit has
been pressurized and allowed to equalize. Leaks will most
likely occur at the pipe plugs, the main seal or wherever orings are located. The exact location of a leak can usually be
detected by brushing a soap and water solution around the
main seal and where the o-rings or gaskets meet on the exterior of the unit, then checking for air bubbles. If a leak is
detected in a seal, o-ring or gasket, the part must be replaced,
and the unit rechecked. Leak test at 10 psi for 20 minutes.
NOTE: Due to the small air volume inside this Torque-Hub, it will
pressurize to 10 psi very quickly. If the pressure becomes
excessive in the unit the seals will be destroyed.
Oil Check/Fill Procedure
The torque hub unit is shipped with ISO 68 viscosity oil
(hydraulic fluid). It is designed to utilize the same oil throughout its service life. However, should it need to be checked/serviced use the following procedure.
In the event of servicing, fill the unit with ISO grade 68 hydraulic oil.
NOTE: The gearbox capacity is 10 oz of oil.
1. To check the oil level, rotate the wheel so that the plugs
in the cover are at 12 o-clock and 3 o-clock.
2. Allow the oil to settle than slowly remove the plug at 3
o-clock.
3. If oil begins to come out the oil level is sufficient.
NOTE: The brake must be released before performing the roll test.
This can be accomplished by connecting the brake release
cable and depressing button. The brake can also be
released by following the manual disengage procedures
outlined in this section.
RE-ENGAGE BRAKES BEFORE RETURNING TO NORMAL OPERATION.
4. If no oil is noticed at the 3 o-clock plug remove both
plugs.
5. Slowly add oil at the 12 o-clock plug location until oil
begins to seep out at the 3 o-clock plug location.
6. Apply pipe dope or teflon tape to the cover plugs and
reinstall into the cover.
7. TIghten to 6 ft lbs - 8 ft lbs (8.4 Nm to 11.2 Nm).
Roll Test
The purpose of the roll test is to determine if the unit's gears
are rotating freely and properly. You should be able to rotate
the wheel or hub of the gearbox by hand. If you feel more drag
in the gears only at certain points, then the gears are not rolling freely and should be examined for improper installation or
defects. Some gear packages roll with more difficulty than
others. Do not be concerned if the gears in your unit seem to
roll hard as long as they roll with consistency.

washer and place it in the center counter bore of the
cover. The grease will help keep it in the bore during
assembly.
11. Center the cover in the hub bore so that the “JLG” logo is
up. Push it into the bore.
NOTE: Do not hit the cover with a hammer or mallet, shocks may
cause the cover thrust washer to dislodge and drop into the
gear cavity prior to the cover getting positioned properly. If
all the parts are to size and assembled properly, the cover
should not need excessive force to assemble.
12. Install the cover retaining ring into the hub groove.

3.16 ARMS AND PLATFORM POSITIONING AND
SUPPORT
NEVER WORK UNDER N ELEVATED PLATFORM UNTIL IT HAS BEEN
RESTRAINED FROM MOVEMENT WITH SAFETY PROPS, BLOCKING OR OVERHEAD SLING.
The arm stack can be supported by using an overhead
crane,(See Figure 3-42.). If an overhead crane is not available
the stack may also be lifted by using a fork-truck using the following instructions:
1. With the forks on the fork-truck slid close together, enter
from the front of the machine and place the forks on the
cross tube of the second arm assembly below the platform.
2. Slowly lift the arm stack with the fork-truck while the
manual descent valve is being engaged (this allows the
oil to drain back into the tank).
3. Place machine on safety prop and leave the fork truck in
place.
4. At this point the lift cylinder removal may begin. (Refer
to Section 4.6, Lift Cylinder Removal)
3.18 SCISSOR ARMS REMOVAL
1. Remove platform (refer to Section 3.17, Platform
Removal).
2. Disconnect all wiring and cables attached to scissor arm
assembly.
3. The scissor arms can be removed as a complete unit or
individually.
Removing Scissor Arm Assembly as a Complete Unit
1. Remove the pin attaching the bottom scissor arms to
the rear of the frame by removing the bolt.
2. Place two straps around each end of the entire scissor
arm assembly. Using an overhead crane, slowly and
carefully move the arm stack forwards so that slide
blocks at front of machine slide out the front of the slide
channel on the frame.
NOTE: Overhead crane and straps must be capable of lifting at
least 2000 lbs (907 kg).
3. Once slide blocks are clear of machine, the scissor stack
can be moved to a more desirable location for further
arm disassembly.
If removal of the platform becomes necessary use the above
procedure to stabilize the platform for pin and platform
removal.
3.17 PLATFORM REMOVAL
1. Support the platform using an overhead crane with
straps capable of lifting at least 500 lbs (227 kg) (See Figure 3-42.). Refer to Section 3.16, Arms and Platform Positioning and Support.
2. Disconnect and remove the platform control station and
wiring harness at the platform. Disconnect AC receptacle cable if applicable. Route the cables out through the
hole at the right-rear of the platform to free platform of
any constraints when lifting.
3. Remove the bolts attaching the pins and slide blocks at
each corner to the arm stack. Carefully remove the four
pins attaching the platform to the arm stack.
4. Lift the platform from the arm stack and set aside.
NOTE: When attaching platform back onto scissor arm assembly,
follow removal procedures in reverse order.
Removing/Installing Scissor Arms Individually
See Figure 3-43., Figure 3-44., Figure 3-45. and Figure 3-46.
1. With the platform removed, start with the top arms
(closest to platform).
2. Secure each arm section being removed using an overhead crane with suitable lifting straps.
3. Remove the bolts securing the connecting pins in place.
4. Remove the pins from the arms.
5. Remove the arm section from the machine using the
overhead crane.
6. Repeat previous steps for remaining arm sections.
NOTE: When attaching scissor arm assembly back onto frame,
follow removal procedures in reverse order.
Self locking fasteners, such as nylon insert and thread deforming locknuts, are not intended to be reinstalled after removal.
Always use new replacement hardware when installing locking fasteners.

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 to travel toward 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.
NOTE: The lift cylinder is a single acting cylinder which takes
hydraulic pressure to extend and gravity to retract.
A holding valve is used in the hydraulic lift circuit to prevent
motion unintended by the operator in the event of a hydraulic
line failure.
4.2VALVES - THEORY OF OPERATION
Solenoid Control Valves (Bang-Bang)
Control valves used are four-way, three-position solenoid
valves of the sliding spool design. When a circuit is activated
and the control valve solenoid energizes, the spool is shifted
and the corresponding work port opens to permit oil flow to
the component in the selected circuit, with 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 to flow. The spool is spring-loaded to
center position, therefore when the control is released, the
spool automatically returns to neutral, prohibiting any flow
through the circuit.
Relief Valves
Main relief valves are installed at various points within the
hydraulic system to protect associated systems and 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 valve is
installed in the circuit between the pump outlet (pressure line)
and the cylinder of the circuit, generally as an integral part of
the system valve bank. Relief pressures are set slightly higher
than the load requirement, with the valve diverting 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
requires an operating pressure lower than that supplied to the
system. When the circuit is activated and the required pressure
at the actuator is developed, the crossover relief diverts excess
pump flow to the reservoir. Individual, integral relief’s are provided for each side of the circuit.
Proportional Valve
Flow is proportional to the amount of voltage supplied to the
valve coil. Voltage is gained by the machine controller and
determined by the position of the joystick.
Manual Descent Valve
The manual descent valve is located on the top of the holding
valve on the lift cylinder. The holding valve is a normally closed
solenoid valve, and holds the platform in place when raised.
When activated, the valve opens to permit lift down. The holding valve is connected to the manual descent valve, which is
connected to a cable which, when pulled, manually opens the
lift down port of the valve and allows the platform to be lowered in the event hydraulic and/or electric power is lost.

4.3PUMP/MOTOR
Theory of Operation
The Power Module (see Section 3.12, Power Control Module ZAPI) is essentially a "low-side" switch for the pump motor.
The positive terminal of the pump is tied to Battery Positive
after the Line Contactor. The negative terminal of the pump
connects to the P Terminal of the Power Module, which
switches current through MOSFET transistors to the Battery
Negative.
For variable speed pump operation, the MOSFET transistors
switch On and Off at high frequencies (16kHz). The Duty Cycle
is varied to control the voltage applied to the pump motor.
When the MOSFET's spend 50% of the period On and 50% Off,
approximately ½ of the available Battery Voltage will be
applied to the pump motor. Similarly, the MOSFET are On continuously (100% Duty Cycle) to apply all available Battery Voltage to the pump motor (as in Lift Up at full speed).
When the Control System is energized, the voltage at the P Terminal will be approximately +24V (referenced to -B) when the
pump is static. The P Terminal will be approximately at +1V
(referenced to -B) when the pump is running at full speed (Lift
Up from Ground Mode).
Pump Motor Electrical Evaluation
Several basic electrical tests can be performed on the Pump
Motor. Failure of one of these evaluations is significant and
may indicate that the device is physically damaged.
Refer to Figure 7-2., Resistance Measurement. Make all measurements with a voltmeter set to resistance scale (Ohms). Disconnect main power at the batteries and all pump motor
cables during this analysis.
• Resistance < 5 Ohms between Motor Terminals.
The internal windings are very low impedance and should
appear to be a short-circuit for an ordinary voltmeter
(other tests can determine if the windings are truly
shorted). High resistance can signal worn brushes, a faulty
commutator, or open windings.
• Resistance > 1 Mega-Ohms between Motor Terminalsand Motor Housing. The internal windings should be
electrically isolated from the motor housing. Low resistance may be an indication of a broken motor terminal,
damaged brush, faulty commutator, or burned winding.
COMMON DIFFICULTIES
The following difficulties can be examined using the JLG Analyzer, a voltmeter, and simple hand tools. Unless otherwise
noted, the Control System shall be energized in Ground Mode
during testing. For a convenient Ground Reference, place the
black meter lead on the negative post of the left battery in the
left-side batter compartment. The vehicle should be placed
on a smooth, firm, and level surface for all analysis.
1. Open-Circuit between +B Terminal and Pump Motor
Positive Terminal
This issue will allow the vehicle to drive, but Lift Up and
Steer Functionality will be lost and the Pump Motor will
not operate. Under DIAGNOSTICS - PUMP, the JLG Analyzer will show PUMP PWM 100% and PUMP CUR 0.0A
when Lift Up is operated from Ground Mode.
As shown in the diagram, the voltage measured
between the Pump Motor Positive Terminal and Ground
Reference should be 24V. If it is not, examine the cable
between the terminal and the Power Module compartment. Inspect crimps for corrosion and ensure that
bolted connections are tight. Ensure that the cable is
not crushed where it passes between the frame side
sheets and the cylinder assembly.
2. Open-Circuit between Pump Motor Negative Terminal
and P Terminal
This issue will allow the vehicle to drive, but Lift Up and
Steer Functionality will be lost and the Pump Motor will
not operate. Under DIAGNOSTICS - PUMP, the JLG Analyzer will show PUMP PWM 100% and PUMP CUR 0.0A
when Lift Up is operated from Ground Mode.
After ensuring there is not an Open-Circuit between the
+B Terminal and Pump Motor Positive Terminal, check
that the voltage measured between the Pump Motor
Negative Terminal and Ground Reference is 24V. If not,
examine the issues within Open-Circuit Pump Motor.
This voltage should ramp to approximately 0V when Lift
Up is operated from Ground Mode. If not, examine the
cable between the terminal and the Power Module compartment (P Terminal). Inspect crimps for corrosion and
ensure that bolted connections are tight. Ensure that
the cable is not crushed where it passes between the
frame side sheets and the cylinder assembly.
3. Open-Circuit Pump Motor
This issue will allow the vehicle to drive, but Lift Up and
Steer Functionality will be lost and the Pump Motor will
not operate. Under DIAGNOSTICS - PUMP, the JLG Analyzer will show PUMP PWM 100% and PUMP CUR 0.0A
when Lift Up is operated from Ground Mode.
Disconnect main power at the batteries to completely
de-energize the Control System. Next, detach the cable
from Pump Motor Positive Terminal. Using a voltmeter
set for resistance measurement (Ohms), ensure that the
resistance between the Pump Motor Positive and Negative Terminals is less than 2 Ohms. If not, examine the
pump motor for worn brushes or broken terminals. After
examination, re-connect the Pump Motor Positive Terminal and main power at the batteries.

4. Short-Circuit between Pump Motor Positive and Negative Terminals
This issue will allow the vehicle to drive, but Lift Up and
Steer Functionality will be lost and the Pump Motor will
not operate. Under DIAGNOSTICS - PUMP, the JLG Analyzer will show an erratic reading for PUMP PWM % and
PUMP CUR will hover around 150A when Lift Up is operated from Ground Mode.
Disconnect main power at the batteries to completely
de-energize the Control System. Next, detach both
Pump Motor Terminals and insulate them independently. Re-connect main power at the batteries and retry Lift Up. If the same symptoms persist (erratic PUMP
PWM%, PUMP CUR around 150A), examine the cabling
between the Pump Motor and Power Module compartment for a short-circuit (most likely near area where cylinder retracts between frame side sheets or near pothole mechanism, if equipped). If the symptoms change,
suspect a short-circuited (or mechanically frozen) pump
motor.
A clamp-on ammeter (set for 200A DC) can be placed on
either Pump Motor Cable for verification. During Lift Up,
the ammeter will read approximately 150A.
