SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION
4.1DESCRIPTION
This machine is a self-propelled hydraulic personnel lift
equipped with a work platform on the end of an elevating
and rotating boom.
The primary operator control station is in the platform. From
this control station, the operator can drive and steer the
machine in both forward and reverse directions. The operator can raise or lower the boom or swing the boom to the left
or right. Standard boom swing is 355 degree non-continuous. The machine has a Ground Control Station which will
override the Platform Control Station. Ground Controls operate Boom Lift and Swing, and are to be used in an emergency to lower the platform to the ground should the
operator in the platform be unable to do so.
3121258– JLG Lift –4-1
SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION
4.2BOOM OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS AND
LIMITATIONS
Capacities
Raising boom above horizontal with or without any load in
platform, is based on the following criteria:
1. Machine is positioned on a smooth, firm and level surface.
2. Load is within manufacturers rated design capacity.
3. All machine systems are functioning properly.
4. Machine is as originally equipped from JLG.
Stability
Machine stability is based on two (2) conditions which are
called FORWARD and BACKWARD stability. The machine’s
position of least FORWARD stability is shown in Figure 4-1.,
and its position of least BACKWARD stability is shown in Figure 4-2.
TO AVOID FORWARD OR BACKWARD TIPPING, DO NOT OVERLOAD
MACHINE OR OPERATE THE MACHINE ON AN OUT-OF-LEVEL SURFACE.
4.3ENGINE OPERATION
NOTE: Initial starting should always be performed from the
Ground Control station.
Starting Procedure
IF ENGINE FAILS TO START PROMPTLY, DO NOT CRANK FOR AN
EXTENDED TIME. SHOULD ENGINE FAIL TO START AGAIN, ALLOW
STARTER TO “COOL OFF” FOR 2-3 MINUTES. IF ENGINE FAILS AFTER
SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, REFER TO ENGINE MAINTENANCE MANUAL.
NOTE: Diesel engines only: After turning on ignition, operator
must wait until glow plug indicator light goes out before
cranking engine.
1. Turn key of SELECT switch to GROUND. Position
POWER/EMERGENCY STOP switch to ON, then push
the ENGINE START switch until engine starts.
ALLOW ENGINE TO WARM-UP FOR A FEW MINUTES AT LOW SPEED
BEFORE APPLYING ANY LOAD.

2. After engine has had sufficient time to warm up, shut
engine off.
3. Turn SELECT switch to PLATFORM.
4. From Platform, pull POWER/EMERGENCY STOP switch
out, then push the ENGINE START switch until engine
starts.
NOTE: Footswitch must be in released (up) position before
starter will operate. If starter operates with footswitch in
the depressed position, DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE.
Shutdown Procedure
IF AN ENGINE MALFUNCTION CAUSES AN UNSCHEDULED SHUTDOWN, DETERMINE THE CAUSE AND CORRECT IT BEFORE RESTARTING THE ENGINE.
1. Remove all load and allow engine to operate at low
speed for 3-5 minutes; this allows further reduction of
internal engine temperature.
2. Push POWER/EMERGENCY STOP switch in.
3. Turn Platform/Ground Select switch to Off.
Refer to Engine Manufacturer’s manual for detailed information.
Fuel Reserve / Shut-Off System (Gas or Diesel
Engines Only)
The Fuel Shutoff System senses when the fuel level is getting
low and automatically shuts the engine down before the fuel
tank is emptied.
Depending upon machine setup, the machine will either
keep the engine shut down until the fuel tank is refilled or the
operator will be able to restart and run the engine for an
additional minute. After 1 minute, the engine will shut off for a
second time and the machine will return to the engine shutdown mode until the fuel tank is refilled.

Hydraulic Oil
6-4– JLG Lift –3121258
NOTE: Hydraulic oils require anti-wear qualities at least API Ser-
vice Classification GL-3, and sufficient chemical stability
for mobile hydraulic system service.
NOTE: Machines may be equipped with Mobil EAL biodegrad-
able and non-toxic hydraulic oil. This is a fully synthetic
hydraulic oil that possesses the same anti-wear and rust
protection characteristics as mineral oils, but will not
adversely affect the ground water or the environment
when spilled or leaked in small amounts.
SECTION 6 - GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS & OPERATOR MAINTENANCE
NOTE: 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 Mobil 424 is
desired, contact JLG Industries for proper recommendations.
OIL SAMPLING
See Figure 6-1., Oil Sampling Port.
This machine is equipped with an oil sampling valve to allow
for verification of hydraulic oil condition. Refer to the Service

6.4TIRES & WHEELS
Tire Replacement
JLG recommends a replacement tire be the same size, ply and
brand as originally installed on the machine. Please refer to the
JLG Parts Manual for the part number of the approved tires for a
particular machine model. If not using a JLG approved replacement tire, we recommend that replacement tires have the following characteristics:
• Equal or greater ply/load rating and size of original
• Tire tread contact width equal or greater than original
• Wheel diameter, width, and offset dimensions equal to
the original
• Approved for the application by the tire manufacturer
(including inflation pressure and maximum tire load)
Unless specifically approved by JLG Industries Inc. do not
replace a foam filled or ballast filled tire assembly with a pneumatic tire. When selecting and installing a replacement tire,
ensure that all tires are inflated to the pressure recommended
by JLG. Due to size variations between tire brands, both tires
on the same axle should be the same.

Wheel and Tire Replacement
The rims installed on each product model have been designed
for stability requirements which consist of track width, tire pressure, and load capacity. Size changes such as rim width, center
piece location, larger or smaller diameter, etc., without written
factory recommendations, may result in an unsafe condition
regarding stability.
Wheel Installation
It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel
mounting torque.
WHEEL NUTS MUST BE INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED AT THE PROPER
TORQUE TO PREVENT LOOSE WHEELS, BROKEN STUDS, AND POSSIBLE DANGEROUS SEPARATION OF WHEEL FROM THE AXLE. BE SURE
TO USE ONLY THE NUTS MATCHED TO THE CONE ANGLE OF THE
WHEEL.
Tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque to prevent wheels from
coming loose. Use a torque wrench to tighten the fasteners. If
you do not have a torque wrench, tighten the fasteners with a
lug wrench, then immediately have a service garage or dealer
tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque. Over-tightening will
result in breaking the studs or permanently deforming the
mounting stud holes in the wheels. The proper procedure for
attaching wheels is as follows:
1. Start all nuts by hand to prevent cross threading. DO
NOT use a lubricant on threads or nuts.
2. Tighten nuts in the following sequence.
3. The tightening of the nuts should be done in stages. Fol-
lowing the recommended sequence, tighten nuts per
wheel torque.
4. Wheel nuts should be torqued before first road use and
after each wheel removal. Check and torque every 3
months or 150 hours of operation.
