2.5 INSPECTION AND USE OF FALL ARREST SYSTEM

The external fall arrest system is designed to provide a lanyard attach point while allowing the operator to access areas outside the plat- form. Exit/Enter the platform through the gate area only. The system is designed for use by one person.
Personnel must use fall protection at all times. A full body harness and shock absorbing lanyard, not to exceed 6 feet (1.8 m) in length, is required when using the external fall arrest system.
DO NOT OPERATE ANY MACHINE FUNCTIONS WHILE OUTSIDE OF PLATFORM. BE CAREFUL WHEN ENTERING/EXITING THE PLATFORM AT ELEVATION.
THE EXTERNAL FALL ARREST SYSTEM REQUIRES AN ANNUAL INSPECTION AND CERTI­FICATION. THE ANNUAL INSPECTION AND CERTIFICATION MUST BE PERFORMED BY A COMPETENT PERSON.
If inspection services are required, contact:
Latchways plc Hopton Park Devises Wiltshire SN10 2JP United Kingdom Tel: +44 (0)1380 732700 Fax: +44 (0)1380 732701 e-mail: info@latchways.com
Prior to accessing areas outside of the fall arrest platform, the user(s) must complete an appropriate job plan/risk assessment for the work to be accomplished and the environment at hand. It is the user’s responsibility to completely and adequately com­plete the job plan/risk assessment - special consideration must be given to the arresting distance of the deployed shock absorbing lanyard compared to the proximity of lower levels, or the ground, in the event of a fall.

Inspecting Cable Tension and Slip Indicator

IF THE FALL ARREST SYSTEM IS USED TO ARREST A FALL OR IS OTHERWISE DAMAGED, THE ENTIRE SYSTEM MUST BE REPLACED AND THE PLATFORM FULLY INSPECTED. REFER TO THE SERVICE MANUAL.

Prior to Use Inspection

Fall arrest systems must be inspected prior to each use. Replace if there are any signs of wear or damage to any of the components.
Prior to use inspection should include a visual inspection of the following items:
Cable: Proper tension, broken strands, corrosion. Fittings: Loose fittings and fractures, damage to hanger Transfastener: Damage, free and proper sliding Attaching Hardware: Loose, missing, properly tightened
Cable tension is adjusted by using the Line Tenser. The Line Tenser is the disc at the end of the cable (shown below). When proper tension is achieved, the disc will spin by hand. When less than proper tension is present the disc will not turn by hand. The cable will stretch normally over time. In order to tension the cable the turnbuckle can be tightened. Rotate the turnbuckle until the proper tension is achieved.

TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE IF ANY CONTROL LEVERS OR TOGGLE SWITCHES CONTROLLING PLATFORM MOVEMENT DO NOT RETURN TO THE OFF OR NEUTRAL POSITION WHEN RELEASED.
1. Drive Speed/Torque Select
The machine has a two position switch - The forward position gives maximum drive speed. The back position gives maximum torque for rough terrain and climbing grades.
2. Steer Select (If Equipped)
When equipped with four wheel steering, the action of the steering system is operator selectable. The center switch position gives conventional front wheel steering with the rear wheels unaf­fected. This is for normal driving at maximum speeds. The forward position is for “crab” steering. When in this mode both front and rear axles steer in the same direction, which allows the chassis to move sideways as it goes forward. This can be used for positioning the machine in aisle ways or against buildings. The back switch position is for “coordi­nated” steering. In this mode the front and rear axles steer in the opposite directions to produce the tightest turning cir­cle for maneuvering in confined areas.
To re-synchronize the front and rear axles, position the rear drive wheels to the forward drive position by selecting either crab or compound steer, then select front steer (cen­ter switch position) to operate the normal steering function.

SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION

4.1 DESCRIPTION

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 360 degree continuous rotation. 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.

4.2 BOOM 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 manufacturer’s rated capacity.
3. All machine systems are functioning properly.
4. Proper tire pressure.
5. Machine is as originally equipped from JLG

Stability

Machine stability is based on two positions which are called FOR­WARD STABILITY and BACKWARD STABILITY. The machine posi­tion of least forward stability is shown in Figure 4-1. and its positions of least backward stability is shown in Figure 4-2.
TO AVOID FORWARD OR BACKWARD TIPPING, DO NOT OVERLOAD MACHINE OR OPER­ATE ON AN OUT-OF-LEVEL SURFACE.

6. From Platform, pull Power/Emergency Stop switch out.
3121654 – JLG Lift – 4-5
SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION
7. 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

NOTE: Reference the Service and Maintenance Manual along with a
qualified JLG Mechanic to verify your machine setup.
The Fuel Shutoff System monitors the fuel in the tank and senses when the fuel level is getting low. The JLG Control System auto­matically shuts the engine down before the fuel tank is emptied unless the machine is set up for Engine Restart.
If fuel level reaches the Empty range, the Low Fuel light will begin to flash once a second and there will be approximately 60 minutes of engine run time left. If the system is in this condition and automati­cally shuts down the engine or if the operator man­ually shuts down the engine before the 60 minute run time is complete, the Low Fuel light will flash 10 times a second and the engine will react according to machine setup. Setup options are as follows:
• Engine One Restart - When the engine shuts down, the operator will be permitted to cycle power and restart the engine once with approximately 2 minutes of run time. After the 2 minute run time is complete or if the engine is shut down by the operator prior to the completion of the 2 minute run time, it cannot be restarted until fuel is added to the tank.
4-6 – JLG Lift – 3121654
SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION
• Engine Restart - When the engine shuts down, the opera­tor will be permitted to cycle power and restart the engine for approximately 2 minutes of run time. After the 2 min­utes of run time is complete, the operator may cycle power and restart the engine for an additional 2 minutes of run time. The operator can repeat this process until there is no more fuel available.
CONTACT A QUALIFIED JLG MECHANIC IF THE MACHINE NEEDS RESTARTED AFTER NO MORE FUEL IS AVAILABLE.
• Engine Stop - When the engine shuts down, no restarts will be permitted until fuel is added to the tank.

4.4 TRAVELING (DRIVING)

See Figure 4-4., Grade and Sideslopes
NOTE: Refer to the Operating Specifications table for Gradeability and
Sideslope ratings.
All ratings for Gradeability and Sideslope are based upon the machine’s boom being in the stowed position, fully lowered, and retracted.
Traveling is limited by two factors:
1. Gradeability, which is the percent of grade of the incline the machine can climb.
2. Sideslope, which is the angle of the slope the machine can be driven across.
