INTRODUCTION - MAINTENANCE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SECTION A. INTRODUCTION - MAINTENANCE SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS

A.A 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 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 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.

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 system pressure prior to disconnecting 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.

A.C MAINTENANCE

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH SAFETY PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THIS SECTION MAY RESULT IN MACHINE DAMAGE, PERSONNEL INJURY OR DEATH AND IS A SAFETY VIOLATION.
• NO SMOKING IS MANDATORY. NEVER REFUEL DUR­ING ELECTRICAL STORMS. ENSURE THAT FUEL CAP IS CLOSED AND SECURE AT ALL OTHER TIMES.
• REMOVE ALL RINGS, WATCHES AND JEWELRY WHEN PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.
• DO NOT WEAR LONG HAIR UNRESTRAINED, OR LOOSE-FITTING CLOTHING AND NECKTIES WHICH ARE APT TO BECOME CAUGHT ON OR ENTANGLED IN EQUIPMENT.
• OBSERVE AND OBEY ALL WARNINGS AND CAU­TIONS ON MACHINE AND IN SERVICE MANUAL.
• KEEP OIL, GREASE, WATER, ETC. WIPED FROM STANDING SURFACES AND HAND HOLDS.
• USE CAUTION WHEN CHECKING A HOT, PRESSUR­IZED COOLANT SYSTEM.
• NEVER WORK UNDER AN ELEVATED BOOM UNTIL BOOM HAS BEEN SAFELY RESTRAINED FROM ANY MOVEMENT BY BL OCKING OR OV ERHEAD SL ING, OR BOOM SAFETY PROP HAS BEEN ENGAGED.
• BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATING OR PERFORMING ANY OTHER MAINTENANCE, SHUT OFF ALL POWER CONTROLS.
• BATTER Y SHOULD ALWAYS BE DISCONNECTED DUR­ING REPLACEMENT OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS.
• KEEP ALL SUPPOR T EQUIPMENT AND ATTACHMENTS STOWED IN THEIR PROPER PLACE.
• USE ONLY APPROVED, NONFLAMMABLE CLEANING SOLVENTS.

SECTION 2. PROCEDURES

SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES

2.1 GENERAL

This section provides information necessary to perform maintenance on the sizzor lift. Descriptions, techniques and specific procedures are designed to provide the saf­est and most efficient maintenance for use by personnel responsible for ensuring the correct installation and oper­ation of machine components and 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 GUIDANCE 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.

2.2 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

General

The following information is provided to assist you in the use and application of servicing and maintenance proce­dures contained in this chapter.

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

2. At any time when air, fuel, or oil lines are discon­nected, clear 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.

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.

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.
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.

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.
3120826 JLG Sizzor 2-1
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
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

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.

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.

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.

Lubrication and Servicing

Components and assemblies requiring lubrication and servicing are shown in Section 1.

2.3 LUBRICATION 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 system warm-up or leaks in the pump supply (suc­tion) lines.

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 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.
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 Section 1. 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.
2-2 JLG Sizzor 3120826
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
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 Mobilfluid 424 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 -26° C (-15° F). 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 , 100V A C heater to a m inimum t emperature 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). Sys- tems 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 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 clean the mesh element of the filter and replace the cartridge 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.

Lubrication Specifications

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 for an explanation of the lubricant key designations appearing in the Lubrication Chart.

2.4 CYLINDERS - 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 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 Lift circuit to prevent retrac­tion of the cylinder rod should a hydraulic line rupture or a leak develop between the cylinder and its related control valve.

2.5 VALVES - 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 spring­loaded to center position, therefore when the control is released, the spool automatically returns to neutral, pro­hibiting any flow through the circuit.
3120826 JLG Sizzor 2-3
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES

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 reliefs are provided for each side of the circuit.

2.7 SLIDING WEAR PADS

The original thickness of the sliding pads is 50.8 mm (2.0 in.). Replace sliding pads when worn to 47.5 mm (1.87in.).

2.8 PUMP AND COUPLING LUBRICATION

To insure proper operation and a long service life for the Hayes pump coupling, it is necessary to lubricate the splines of the coupling any time the coupling is disassem­bled or replaced. Lubricate the splines with Texaco Code 1912 Pump Coupling Grease ONLY. No other lubricant is recommended.

2.6 COMPONENT FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

Piston Hydraulic Pump

The Sundstrand piston hydraulic pump is attached to and driven by the engine. The pump is a 45.9 cm[3] (2.8 in.[3]) displacement piston pump that powers the drive motors.

Gear Hydraulic Pump

The John Barnes gear pump is “piggy-backed” to the pis- ton pump, and operates all machine functions except drive. The gear pump has a displacement of 10.5 cm[3] (0.6 in. [3]).

Manual Descent Valve

The manual descent valve is located on 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 power is lost.

2.9 CYLINDER CHECKING PROCEDURES

NOTE: Cylinder checks must be performed any time a cylin-
der component is repl ac ed or wh en im pro per system operation is suspected.

Cylinder w/o Counterbalance Valves - Steer Cylinder, Axle Lockout Cylinder (If Equipped)

OPERATE FUNCTIONS FROM GROUND CONTROL STATION ONLY.
1. Using all applicable safety precautions, activate hydraulic system and fully extend cylinder to be checked. Shut down hydraulic system.
2-4 JLG Sizzor 3120826
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
2. Carefully disconnect hydraulic hose from retract port 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 hydraulic system 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 hydraulic system and carefully disconnect hydraulic hose from cylinder extend port.
6. Activate motor and activate cylinder retract function. Check extend port for leakage.
7. If cylinder leakage is 6-8 drops per minute or more, piston seals are defective and must be replaced. If extend port leakage is less than 6-8 drops per minute, carefully reconnect hose to extend port, then activate cylinder through one complete cycle and check for leaks.
port is leaking, the counterbalance valve is defective and must be replaced.
5. If no repairs are necessary or when repairs have been made, carefully reconnect hydraulic hoses to the appropriate ports.
6. Remove lifting device from platform, activate hydrau­lic system and run cylinder through one complete cycle to check for leaks.

2.10 CYLINDER REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

Lift Cylinder Removal

1. Place the machine on a flat and level surface. Start the engine/motor and raise the platform. Shut down the engine/motor and attach a suitable support device to the platform.

2.12 TILT ALARM SWITCH

NOTE: The machine is equipped with a tilt alarm switch fac-
tory set to activate at 3° and will sound an alarm and illuminate a warning light on th e platfor m co ntrol co n­sole. Consult factory for tilt switch adjustment. The only field adjustment necessary is leveling the switch on the spring loaded studs. There are two methods of adjustment, a manual adjustment and an adjust­ment using a voltmeter.
PERFORM TILT ALARM SWITCH LEVELING PROCEDURE A MINI­MUM OF EVERY SIX MONTHS TO ENSURE PROPER OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF SWITCH.

Manual Adjustment

1. Park the machine on a flat, level surface and ensure machine is level.
NOTE: Ensure switch mountin g br acke t is level and secu rel y
attached.
2. Level the base of the indicator by tightening the three flange nuts. Tighten each nut through approxi­mately one half of its springs travel. DO NOT ADJUST THE “X” NUT DURING THE REMAINDER OF THE PROCEDURE.
3. With the electrical connections complete, slowly tighten one of the “Y” nuts until the circuit is closed and the light on the Platform Control Console illumi­nates.
4. Slowly back off the nut, counting the number of turns, until the circuit is again closed and the light again illuminates.
5. Divide the number of turns determined in step (4) in half. Tighten the nut this many turns. The line deter­mined by this nut and the “X” nut is now parallel to the ground.
6. Repeat steps (3) through (5) for the remaining “Y” nut. The switch is now level.
7. Individually push down on one corner at a time; there should be enough travel to cause the switch to trip. If the switch does not trip in all three tests, the flange nuts have been tightened too far. Loosen the X nut and repeat steps (3) through (7).

Voltmeter Adjustment

1. Park machine on a flat, level surface and ensure machine is level.
2. If motor is not running, turn ignition switch to ON.
3. Connect black lead of voltmeter to ground and red lead to yellow wire protruding from pot on bottom of sensor.
4. Adjust leveling nuts to obtain the highest possible voltage reading.
5. Check voltage at trip point in all four directions. If voltage reading is not symmetrical, repeat step (4) above.

THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE SHOULD ALWAYS BE PER­FORMED WHEN STARTING A NEW PUMP OR WHEN RESTARTING AN INSTALLATION IN WHICH EITHER THE PUMP OR MOTOR HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SYSTEM.
THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE SHOULD ALWAYS BE PER­FORMED WHEN STARTING A NEW PUMP OR WHEN RESTARTING AN INSTALLATION IN WHICH EITHER THE PUMP OR MOTOR HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SYSTEM. THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE MAY REQUIRE THE MACHINE TO BE DISABLED (WHEELS RAISED OFF THE GROUND, DRIVE FUNCTION DISCONNECTED, ETC.) WHILE PERFORMING THE PROCEDURE IN ORDER TO PREVENT INJURY TO TECHNICIAN AND OTHER PERSONNEL. TAKE NECESSARY SAFETY PRECAU­TIONS BEFORE MOVING THE MACHINE.
Prior to installing pump and/or motor, inspect unit(s) for damage incurred during shipping and handling. Make certain all system components (reservoir, hoses, valves, fittings, heat exchanger, etc.) are clean prior to filling with hydraulic fluid.
Fill reservoir with recommended hydraulic fluid, which should be passed through a 10 micron (nominal, no bypass) filter prior to entering the reservoir. The use of contaminated fluid will cause damage to components, which may result in unexpected machine movement.
3120826 JLG Sizzor 2-13
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
The inlet line leading from the reservoir to the pump should be filled prior to start-up. Check inlet line for prop­erly tightened fittings and make sure it is free of restric­tions and air leaks.
Be certain to fill pump and/or motor housing with clean hydraulic fluid prior to start-up. Fill housing by pouring fil­tered oil into upper case drain port.
Install a 0 to 35 bar (0 to 500 psi) pressure gauge in the charge pressure gauge port to monitor charge pressure during start-up.
It is recommended that the external control input signal electrical connections be disconnected at the pump con­trol until after initial start-up. This will allow the pump to remain in its neutral position.
Jog or slowly rotate prime mover until charge pressure starts to rise. Start prime mover and run at the lowest pos­sible RPM until charge pressure has been established. Excess air may be bled from high pressure lines through high pressure gauge ports.
DO NOT START PRIME MOVER UNLESS PUMP IS IN NEUTRAL POSITION (0 DEGREES SWASHPLATE ANGLE). TAKE PRECAU­TIONS TO PREVENT MACHINE MOVEMENT IN CASE PUMP IS ACTUATED DURING INITIAL START-UP.
Once charge pressure has been established, increase speed to normal operating RPM. Charge pressure should be approximately 15.5 bar (220 psi) minimum. If charge pressure is incorrect, shut down and determine cause for improper pressure.

2.18 HYDRAULIC COMPONENT START-UP PROCEDURES AND RECOMMENDATIONS

From a hydrostatic component standpoint, the goal at system start up is to put into functional operation, the hydrostatic system in such a way as to preserve the designed life span of the system. The following start-up procedure should be adhered to whenever a new pump or motor is initially installed into a machine, or a system is restarted after either a pump or motor has been removed and/or replaced.
THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE MAY REQUIRE THE MACHINE TO BE DISABLED (WHEELS RAISED OFF THE GROUND, WORK FUNCTIONS DISCONNECTED, ETC.) WHILE PERFORMING THE PROCEDURE IN ORDER TO PREVENT INJURY. TAKE NECES­SARY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS BEFORE MOVING THE VEHICLE/ MACHINE.
Prior to installing the pump and/or motor, inspect the unit(s) for damage that may have been incurred during shipping and handling. Make certain that all system com­ponents (reservoir, hoses, valves, fittings, heat exchanger, etc.) are clean prior to filling with fluid.
Fill the reservoir with recommended hydraulic fluid. This fluid should be passed through a 10 micron (nominal, no bypass) filter prior to entering the reservoir. The use of contaminated fluid will cause damage to the components, which may result in unexpected vehicle/machine move­ment.
NOTE: If a pump or motor is being replaced due to internal
damage, the remaining units (pump or motors) need to be inspected for damage and contamination, and the entire hydraulic system will need to be flushed and the fluid replaced. Failure to do so may cause considerable damage to the entire system.
The inlet line leading from the reservoir to the pump must be filled prior to start-up. Check the inlet line for property tightened fittings and make sure it is free of restrictions and air leaks.
NOTE: In most cases, the reservoir is above the pump inlet
so that the pressure head created by the higher oil level helps to keep the inlet pressures within an acceptable range and prevent high vacuum levels. However, due to hose routing or low reservoir loca­tions, there may be air trapped within this line. It is important to assure that the air is bled from this line. This can be accomplished by loosening the hose at the fitting closest the pump. When oil begins to flow, the line is full, the air has be en purged , and t he fittin g can be retightened to its specified torque. If the tank needs to be pressurized in order to start the flow of oil, a vacuum reading should be taken at the inlet of the pump during operation in order to verify that the pump is not being asked to draw an inlet vacuum higher than it is capable of.
Be certain to fill the pump and/or motor housing with clean hydraulic fluid prior to start up. Fill the housing by pouring filtered oil into the upper case drain port.
NOTE: It is highly recommended to use the highest possible
case drain port, this ensures that the housing con­tains as much oil as possible and offers the greatest amount of lubrication to the internal components.
NOTE: In initial start-up conditions, it may be convenient to
fill the housing, just prior to installing the case drain line. Component, (esp ec ial ly mo tor), l oc atio n m ay be such that access to the case drain port after installa­tion is not realistic.
NOTE: Make certain that the oil b ei ng us ed to fill the comp o-
nent housing is as clean as possible, and store the fill container in such a way as to prevent it from becoming contamin ate d.
Install a 60 bar (or 1000 psi) pressure gauge in the charge pressure gauge port in order to monitor the charge pres­sure during start-up.
It is recommended that the external control input signal, (electrical connections for EDC), be disconnected at the pump control until after initial start-up. This will ensure that the pump remains in its neutral position.
DO NOT START THE ENGINE UNLESS PUMP IS IN THE NEUTRAL POSITION (0 DEGREES SWASHPLATE ANGLE). TAKE PRECAU­TIONS TO PREVENT MACHINE MOVEMENT IN CASE PUMP IS ACTUATED DURING INITIAL START-UP.
"Jog" or slowly rotate the engine until charge pressure starts to rise. Start the engine and run at the lowest possi­ble RPM until charge pressure has been established. Excess air should be bled from the system lines as close to the motors as possible.
2-18 JLG Sizzor 3120826
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
NOTE: With the engine on low idle, "crack", (loosen-don’t
remove), the system lines at the motor(s). Continue to run the eng ine at low i dle and tigh ten the sy stem lines as soon as oil is observed to leak from them. When oil is observe d to " lea k" at th e mo tor th e li ne i s full, the air has been purged, and the system hoses should be retightened to their specified torque.
Once charge pressure has been established, increase speed to normal operating RPM. Charge pressure should be as indicated in the pump model code. If charge pres­sure is inadequate, shut down and determine the cause for improper pressure.
INADEQUATE CHARGE PRESSURE WILL AFFECT THE OPERA­TORS ABILITY TO CONTROL THE MACHINE.
Shut down the engine and connect the external control input signal. Also reconnect the machine function(s), if disconnected earlier. Start the engine, checking to be cer­tain the pump remains in neutral. With the engine at nor­mal operating RPM, slowly check for forward and reverse machine operation.
Charge pressure may slightly decrease during forward or reverse operation. Continue to cycle slowly between for­ward and reverse for at least five minutes.
Shut down engine, remove gauges, and plug ports. Check reservoir level and add filtered fluid if needed.
The machine is now ready for operation.

2.28 DUAL FUEL/LPG SYSTEM

IT IS POSSIBLE TO SWITCH FROM ONE FUEL SOURCE TO THE OTHER WITHOUT ALLOWING THE ENGINE TO STOP. EXTREME CARE MUST BE TAKEN AND THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED.

Changing From Gasoline to LP Gas

1. Start engine from ground control station.
2. Open hand valve on LP gas supply tank by turning valve counterclockwise.
BE SURE ALL GASOLINE IS EXHAUSTED BEFORE SWITCHING TO LP GAS.
3. While engine is operating, place the three position LPG/GASOLINE switch at ground control station to center OFF position. Allow engine to operate, with­out load, until engine begins to “stumble from lack of gasoline.
4. As engine begins to stumble, place switch to LPG position, allowing LP fuel to be sent to the fuel regu­lator.
13. Install washer head cap screws and tighten evenly to draw end cover to housing. Torque washer head cap screws to 75 Nm (55 ft. lbs.).
NOTE: If ava il abl e, a hy d rau li c p r es s wil l si mpl if y ins t alla t i on
of end cover on housing. Clamp cover in position while tightening washer head cap screws.
14. If hydrostatic bench testing is done on brake assem­bly, release pressure should not exceed 2000 psi (138 bar) unless two additional bolts are used for supplemental clamping.

2.27 SPARK ARRESTOR MUFFLER

The multiple discs on these mufflers will require frequent cleaning if used with oily or sooty exhaust, such as a die­sel engine, or on malfunctioning engines, as evidenced by visible exhaust.

Changing From LP Gas to Gasoline

1. With engine operating on LP under a no-load condi­tion, throw LPG/GASOLINE switch at ground control station to GASOLINE position.
2. If engine “stumbles” because of lack of gasoline, place switch to LPG position until engine regains smoothness, then return switch to GASOLINE posi­tion.
3. Close hand valve on LP gas supply by turning clock­wise.

Using Liquid Petroleum (LP) Gas

CLOSE FUEL VALVE ON TANK WHEN PARKING SIZZOR LIFT MORE THAN MOMENTARILY.
WHEN REFUELING LPG POWERED SIZZOR LIFTS, ALWAYS FOL­LOW MANUFACTURERS SPECIFICATIONS AND/OR APPLICABLE REGULATIONS.
1. If machine is to be left overnight or longer, it must be parked outside or the LPG tank removed and stored outside.
2-44 JLG Sizzor 3120826
SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES
2. LPG is extremely flammable. No smoking.
3. Only trained and authorized personnel are permitted to operate filling equipment.
4. Fill LPG tanks outdoors. Stay at least 15 m (50 ft) from buildings, motor vehicles, electrical equipment or other ignition sources. Stay at least 5 m (15 ft) from LPG storage tanks.
5. During transfer of LPG, metal components can become very cold. Always wear gloves when refilling or changing tanks to prevent freeze burns to skin.
6. Do not store LPG tanks near heat or open flame. For complete instructions on the storage of LPG fuels, refer to ANSI/NEPA 58 & 505.
DO NOT USE AN LPG TANK THAT IS DAMAGED. A DAMAGED TANK MUST BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE. FROST ON THE SUR­FACE OF A TANK, VALVES, OR FITTINGS INDICATES LEAKAGE. A STRONG ODOR OF LPG FUEL CAN INDICATE A LEAK.

SECTION 3 - TROUBLESHOOTING

SECTION 3. TROUBLESHOOTING

3.1 GENERAL

This section contains troubleshooting information to be used for locating and correcting most of the operating problems which may develop in the aerial platform. If a problem should develop which is not presented in this section or which is not corrected by listed corrective actions, technically qualified guidance should be obtained before proceeding with any maintenance.
Troubleshooting and maintenance information pertaining to the prime mover (engine/motor) that are not contained in this manual are contained in the applicable engine maintenance manual.

3.2 TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION

The troubleshooting procedures applicable to the aerial platform are listed and defined in Tables 3-1 through 3-4. As an aid to table use, the platform sizzor is divided into 4 major groups, each covered separately within this section. These groups are as follows: Platform, chassis, hydraulic system and electrical system.
Each malfunction within an individual group or system is followed by a listing of probable causes which will enable determination of the applicable remedial action. The prob­able causes and remedial action should, where possible, be checked in the order listed in the tables.
It should be noted that there is no substitute for a thor­ough knowledge of the equipment and related systems.
It should be recognized that the majority of the problems arising in the machine will be centered in the hydraulic and electrical systems. For this reason, every effort has been made to ensure that all likely problems in these areas are given the fullest possible treatment. In the remaining machine groups, only those problems which have more than one probable cause and remedy are included. This means that problems for which the proba­ble cause and remedy may be immediately obvious are not listed in this section.
The first rule for troubleshooting any circuit that is hydrau­lically operated and electrically controlled is to determine if the circuit is lacking hydraulic oil and electrical power. This can be ascertained by overriding the bypass valve (mechanically or electrically) so that oil is available to the function valve, then overriding the function valve mechani­cally. If the function performs satisfactorily, the problem exists with the control circuit.

3.3 HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT CHECKS

The first reference for improper function of a hydraulic sys­tem, where the cause is not immediately apparent, should be the troubleshooting chart. The best place to begin the problem analysis is at the power source (pump) Once it is determined that the pump is serviceable, then a system­atic check of the circuit components, beginning with the control, would follow. For aid in troubleshooting, refer to the Illustrated Parts Manual for hydraulic diagram of the various circuits.
