SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION
4.1DESCRIPTION
This machine is a self-propelled aerial work platform on
top of an elevating ‘scissor’ mechanism. The Scissor Lift’s
intended purpose is to position personnel with their tools
and supplies at positions above ground level. The
machine can be used to reach work areas located above
machinery or equipment positioned at ground level.
The JLG Scissor Lift has a primary operator Control Station in the platform. From this Control Station, the operator
can drive and steer the machine in both forward and
reverse directions, raise and lower the platform and, if
equipped, operate the powered deck extension. The
machine has a Ground Control Station which will override
the Platform Control Station. Ground Controls operate lift
up and down. Ground Controls are to be used only in an
emergency to lower the platform to the ground should the
operator in the platform be unable to do so.
Instructions and hazard warnings are posted adjacent to
both operator control stations and at other places on the
machine. It is extremely important that operators know
what instructions and warnings are placed on the
machine, and review these periodically so that they are
fresh in their minds. Vibrations emitted by these machines
are not hazardous to an operator in the work platform.
The JLG Scissor Lift is designed to provide efficient and
safe operation when maintained and operated in accordance with warnings on the machine, the Operating and
Safety Manual, the Service and Maintenance Manual and
all jobsite and government rules and regulations. As with
any type of machinery, the operator is very important to
efficient and safe operation. It is absolutely necessary that
the JLG Lift be regularly maintained in accordance with
this manual and the machine Service and Maintenance
Manual, and that any evidence of lack of maintenance,
malfunction, excessive wear, damage or modification to
the machine be reported immediately to the machine
owner or the jobsite supervisor or safety manager and that
the machine be taken out of service until all discrepancies
are corrected.
The JLG Scissor Lift is not intended to be used to lift material other than supplies which personnel in the platform
require to do their job. Supplies or tools which extend outside the platform are prohibited. It must not be used as a
forklift, crane, support for overhead structure, or to push
or pull another object.
the position of the control lever. Functions controlled by
toggle or push-button switches are either on or off. In
some instances, a function switch can be used in conjunction with the controller to give the machine a higher function speed range.
The JLG Scissor Lift is an all wheel drive machine. The
rear wheels are supplied with a hydraulic disc brake. This
brake is automatically applied any time the drive controller
is returned to the neutral position.
The platform capacity of the 330CRTis 1000 lb. (450 kg)
and the capacity of the 400CRT is 800 lb. (360 kg). The
weight in the platform should be uniformly distributed in
the center of the platform. The total combined weight of
personnel, tools and supplies must not exceed the above
figures.
The platform may be raised only when positioned on firm,
level and uniform surfaces.
4.2GENERAL
This section provides the necessary information needed
to operate the machine. Included in this section are the
procedures for starting, stopping, traveling, steering, parking, platform loading and transporting the machine. It is

SECTION 5 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
SECTION 5. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
5.1GENERAL
This section provides information on the procedures to be
followed and on the systems and controls to be used in
the event an emergency situation is encountered during
machine operation. Prior to operation of the machine and
periodically thereafter, the entire operating manual,
including this section, should be reviewed by all personnel whose responsibilities include any work or contact
with the machine.
5.2EMERGENCY TOWING PROCEDURES
Although towing the machine is prohibited, provisions for
moving the machine, in case of a malfunction or power
failure, have been incorporated. The following procedures
are to be used ONLY for emergency movement to a suitable maintenance area.
1. Chock the wheels securely.
2. Locate the brake cartridge on the hydraulic control
valve, located adjacent to the hydraulic oil tank on
the left side of the machine. Depress the plunger on
the brake cartridge.
3. Locate the brake release pump, in front of the
hydraulic control valve. Install the handle on the
brake release pump and pump it to release the
brake. Remove handle when finished.
4. Using suitable equipment for assistance, remove the
chocks, winch or tow the machine to an appropriate
maintenance area.
5.3EMERGENCY CONTROLS AND THEIR
LOCATIONS
Emergency Stop Switch
These large red buttons, one located at the Ground Control Station and one at the Platform Control Station, will
immediately stop the machine when depressed.
CHECK MACHINE DAILY TO MAKE SURE EMERGENCY STOP
BUTTON IS IN PLACE AND THAT GROUND CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS ARE IN PLACE AND LEGIBLE.
Ground Control Station
The Ground Control Station is located on the left side of
the machine frame. The controls on this panel provide the
means for overriding the platform controls and for controlling the platform lift up and down functions from the
ground. Place the power select switch in the ground position and operate the lift switch to lift up or down.
Manual Descent
The manual descent valve is used, in the event of total
power failure, to lower the platform using gravity. The
manual descent handle is located on the rear of the
machine frame, behind the ladder. The handle is connected, by a cable, to the manual descent valve on the lift
cylinder. Pulling the manual descent ring opens the valve
spool, lowering the platform.
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN OPENING THE TOW VALVE. THE
DRIVE FUNCTION WILL STILL OPERATE WITH THE TOW VALVE
OPEN, BUT THE BRAKE IS DISABLED. ENSURE THE TOW VALVE
REMAINS CLOSED AT ALL TIMES, EXCEPT WHEN THE MACHINE
IS BEING TOWED. CLOSE THE TOW VALVE IMMEDIATELY AFTER
TOWING IS COMPLETED.
After moving the machine, complete the following procedures:
1. Position the machine on a firm, level surface.
2. Chock the wheels securely.
3. Turn knob counterclockwise to engage wheell
brakes.
4. Turn the knob on the brake pump clockwise until
tight. this places the machine back into normal operation
5. Remove the chocks from the wheels.
5.4EMERGENCY OPERATION
Use of Ground Controls
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.

SECTION 5 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
Operator Unable to Control 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.
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.
Post-Incident Inspection
Following any incident, thoroughly inspect the machine
and test all functions first from the ground controls, then
from the platform controls. Do not lift above 10 feet (3
meters) until you are secure that all damage has been
repaired, if required, and that all controls are operating
correctly.
