Torque Requirements
The Torque Chart (Figure 2-6.) consists of standard torque values based on bolt diameter and grade, also specifying dry and wet torque values in accordance with recom­mended shop practices. This chart is provided as an aid to the operator in the event he/she notices a condition that requires prompt attention during the walk-around inspec­tion or during operation, until the proper service personnel can be notified. The Service and Maintenance manual provides specific torque values and periodic maintenance procedures with a listing of individual components. Utiliz­ing this Torque Chart in conjunction with the preventive maintenance section in the Service and Maintenance manual will enhance safety, reliability, and performance of the machine.
2.4 DAILY WALK-AROUND INSPECTION
It is the operator’s responsibility to inspect the machine before the start of each workday. It is recommended that each operator inspect the machine before operation, even if the machine has already been put into service under another operator. This Daily Walk-Around Inspection is the preferred method of inspection. (See Figure 2-2.)
In addition to the Daily Walk-Around Inspection, be sure to include the following as part of the daily inspection:
1. Overall cleanliness.
Check all standing surfaces for oil, fuel and hydrau­lic oil spillage and foreign objects. Ensure overall cleanliness.
2. Placards.
Keep all information and operating placards clean and unobstructed. Cover when spray painting or shot blasting to protect legibility.
3. Operator’s and Safety Manual.
Ensure a copy of this manual is enclosed in the manual storage box.
NOTE: Check all DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and
INSTRUCTION placards for legibility and security on the entire machine.

SECTION 2 - PREPARATION AND INSPECTION
4. 4. Machine Log.
Ensure a machine operating record or log is kept, check to see that it is current and that no entries have been left uncleared, leaving machine in an unsafe condition for operation.
5. Start each day with a full fuel tank.
TO AVOID INJURY, DO NOT OPERATE A MACHINE UNTIL ALL MALFUNCTIONS HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. USE OF A MALFUNC­TIONING MACHINE IS A SAFETY VIOLATION.
TO AVOID POSSIBLE INJURY, BE SURE MACHINE POWER IS “OFF” DURING WALK-AROUND INSPECTION.
NOTE: Check boom horizontal limit switch for proper opera-
tion and security, both visually and manually. Switch must shut down high engine and high drive speed when boom is raised above horizontal:
6. Check platform footswitch for proper operation. Switch must be released to start engine and depressed to operate machine.
7. Check that drive brakes hold when machine is driven up a grade and stopped.
NOTE: On new machines, those recently overhauled, or
after changing hydraulic oil, operate all systems a minimum of two complete cycles and recheck oil level in reservoir.
8. Assure that all items requiring lubrication are ser­viced. Refer to Table 2-1, Lubrication Chart, for spe­cific requirements.

SECTION 2 - PREPARATION AND INSPECTION
2.5 DAILY FUNCTIONAL CHECK
PROPER AXLE EXTENSION MUST BE CHECKED AND VERIFIED PRIOR TO ANY OTHER SYSTEMS AND/OR FUNCTIONS.
A functional check of all systems should be performed, once the walk-around inspection is complete, in an area free of overhead and ground level obstructions. First, using the ground controls, check all functions controlled by the ground controls. Next, using the platform controls, check all functions controlled by the platform controls.
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.
TO AVOID COLLISION AND INJURY IF PLATFORM DOES NOT STOP WHEN A CONTROL SWITCH OR LEVER IS RELEASED, REMOVE FOOT FROM FOOTSWITCH OR USE EMERGENCY STOP TO STOP THE MACHINE.
NOTE: Perform checks from the ground controls first, where
applicable, then from the platform controls.
1. Extendable Axles.
Prior to extending the axles, verify that the boom will not elevate above horizontal and that it will not extend more than 10 feet (3.0 m). For machines equipped with red Axles Set or red Axles Not Set indicator lamps, at the platform and/or the ground controls, verify the lamps illuminate until the axles are properly extended and locked. For machines equipped with green Axles Set indicator lamps at the platform and/or the ground controls, the lamps should not illuminate until the axles are extended and locked.
DO NOT OPERATE THE MACHINE IF THE BOOM ELEVATES ABOVE HORIZONTAL OR EXTENDS BEYOND TEN FEET WITH­OUT FULLY EXTENDING AND LOCKING THE AXLES.
Check axle operation as follows:
NOTE: Fixed axle machines have retaining pins for the
axles, steer cylinders, and tie rods. Machines equipped with oscillating axles do not have these retaining pins and all extending and retracting opera­tions are performed from the platform without aid of an assistant.
Machines Without Jacks
a. Position the boom over the drive wheel end of
machine. Position STEER/AXLES valve, located adjacent to the right front wheel, to AXLES. Remove axle lock pins.
DO NOT USE EXTEND-A-REACH (IF EQUIPPED) TO LIFT MACHINE WHEN EXTENDING AND RETRACTING AXLES.
NOTE: On machines equipped with Soft Touch Proximity
System, the operator must press and hold the over­ride button on the front of the control box in order to lift the drive wheels from the ground.
b. Position LIFT control to DOWN and hold until
drive wheels rise from the ground; it may be nec­essary to feather the lift control to maintain drive wheel elevation.
c. With the aid of an assistant, position the
EXTENDABLE AXLE/STEER switch located on the platform control console to LEFT until axles are fully extended. On machines with fixed axles, install axle lock pins.
d. Position LIFT control to UP to lower the
machine; elevate the boom sufficiently and repo­sition the boom over the steer wheel end of the machine.
e. Repeat steps b thru d for the steer axle. On
machines with fixed axles, remove the tie rod lock pins, steer cylinder lock pin, and axle lock pins.
f. Position STEER/AXLES valve to STEER.
g. On machines with fixed axles, cycle steer sys-
tem in both directions to ensure tie rod and steer cylinder are properly locked.
h. For machines equipped with a green Axles Set
Indicator lamp, verify proper operation of the lamp at the platform and ground controls.
Machines With Jacks
NOTE: For machines equipped with a front jack only,
refer to the instructions under Machines Without Jacks to extend the rear axle.
a. Position STEER/AXLES valve, located adjacent
to the right front wheel, to AXLES.
b. Position Jack/Steer/Axles select switch on
the platform control console to JACK.
c. On machines with fixed axles, remove the axle
lock pins on the applicable axle. If extending the steer axle, also remove the tie rod lock pins and steer cylinder lock pin.
d. Position the Jack Select Switch to either FRONT
JACK or REAR JACK and position the JACK
2-10 – JLG Lift – 3120890
SECTION 2 - PREPARATION AND INSPECTION
control switch to down and hold until the wheels on the selected axle rise from the ground.
e. Position the Jack/Steer/Axles select switch to
AXLES. Then, position the Steer/Axles/Jack control switch to left until the axles are fully extended. On machines with fixed axles, install axle lock pins. If extending the steer axle, also install the tie rod lock pins and steer cylinder lock pin.
f. Position the JACK control to the up position to
lower the machine. Ensure the jack is fully retracted before operating the machine.
ENSURE THE JACK IS FULLY RETRACTED BEFORE OPERATING THE MACHINE. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE.
g. Repeat steps b thru f to extend the opposite
axle.
h. Position the STEER/AXLES valve to STEER.
i. On machines with fixed axles, cycle the steer
system in both directions to ensure the tie rod and steer cylinder are properly locked.
j. For machines equipped with a green Axles Set
Indicator lamp, verify proper operation of the lamp at the platform and ground controls.
9. Check that platform automatic self-leveling system functions properly during raising and lowering of the boom.
10. Check platform level adjustment system for proper operation.
NOTE: Turntable lock is on turntable facing platform. To dis-
engage lock, pull snap pin from lock pin, lift lock pin up to unlock turntable. Return snap pin to lock pin to hold lock pin in the disengaged position. Reverse procedure to engage turntable lock.
11. Swing turntable to LEFT and RIGHT a minimum of 45 degrees. Check for smooth motion.
12. With the aid of an assistant to monitor the CHASSIS OUT OF LEVEL indicator light on the platform con­trol console, manually activate the indicator light by compressing any one of the three tilt indicator mounting springs. If the light does not illuminate, shut down machine and contact a qualified service technician before continuing operation.
13. Footswitch.
2. Drive forward and reverse; check for proper opera­tion.
3. Steer left and right; check for proper operation.
4. If equipped with 4 wheel steer, check rear steer left and right for proper operation.
5. If equipped, check platform rotator for smooth oper­ation and assure platform will rotate 90 degrees in both directions from centerline of boom.
6. Raise, lower, and swing boom to LEFT and RIGHT a minimum of 45 degrees (Cycle function several times.) Check for smooth elevation and swing motion.
7. If equipped with Extend-A-Reach, raise and lower and swing Extend-A-Reach (Cycle functions several times). check for smooth elevation and swing motion.
8. Telescope boom in and out several cycles at various degrees of elevation lengths. Check for smooth tele­scope operation.
FOOTSWITCH MUST BE ADJUSTED SO THAT FUNCTIONS WILL OPERATE WHEN PEDAL IS APPROXIMATELY AT ITS CENTER OF TRAVEL. IF SWITCH OPERATES WITHIN LAST 1/4" OF TRAVEL, TOP OR BOTTOM, IT SHOULD BE ADJUSTED.
a. Activate hydraulic system. By depressing foot-
switch. Operate TELESCOPE and hold control. Remove foot from footswitch, motion should stop. If it does not, shut down machine and con­tact a certified JLG service technician.
b. With footswitch depressed, operate LIFT and
hold control. Remove foot from footswitch, motion should stop. If it does not, shut down machine and contact a certified JLG service technician.
c. With engine power shut down, depress the foot-
switch. Attempt to start engine. Engine should not attempt to start when footswitch is depressed. If starter engages or engine turns over, shut down machine and contact a certified JLG service technician.

SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION
4.1 DESCRIPTION
This machine is a self-propelled aerial work platform on the end of an elevating, telescoping and rotating boom. The JLG 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 and over machinery or equipment.
The JLG 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. The operator can raise, lower, extend or retract the boom; swing the boom to the left or right; and when equipped with a platform rotator, can rotate the platform around the boom end. Standard boom swing is 360° con­tinuous left and right of the stowed position. The machine has a Ground Control Station which will override the Plat­form Control Station. Ground Controls operate boom lift, telescope and swing and 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.
Instruction 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 equivalent continuous A-Weighted sound pressure level at the work platform is less than 70 dB(A).
The JLG Lift is designed to provide efficient and safe oper­ation when maintained and operated in accordance with warnings on the machine, in the Operators and Safety 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 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 machine is equipped with an auxiliary battery oper­ated power unit which will provide hydraulic power in the event of a primary engine power loss. Auxiliary power can be controlled from either the Platform Control Station or the Ground Control Station. Follow the instructions placed at the control stations.
The JLG Lift is hydraulically powered using hydraulic motors and cylinders for various machine motions. The hydraulic components are controlled by electrically acti­vated hydraulic valves using switches and control levers. The speeds of functions controlled by control levers are variable from zero to maximum speed depending upon the position of the control lever. Functions controlled by toggle switches are either on or off and higher or lower speed is possible when the Function Speed control switch is used in conjunction with the function toggle switch. A foot operated switch in the platform must be depressed before any controls will function and provides a means of emergency stop when the operator’s foot is removed from the footswitch.
The JLG Lift is a two wheel drive (four wheel drive avail­able) machine with drive power being supplied by a hydraulic motor for each drive wheel. Each drive wheel is supplied with a hydraulically released, spring-applied brake. The swing drive is also equipped with such a brake. These brakes are automatically applied any time the Drive or Swing Control lever are returned to the neutral position.
The unrestricted capacity of the JLG Lift is 230 kg. This means that with a platform load of 230 kg or less, the plat­form may be positioned anywhere the boom will reach.
4.2 GENERAL
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. It is important that the user read and understand the proper procedures before operating the machine.

SECTION 5. OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
5.1 ROTATOR
A Platform rotator allows for platform rotation 90 degrees from center in either direction. The rotator is designed to give added jobsite versatility. The platform should be returned to the center position for all other operations.
5.2 DUAL FUEL SYSTEM (GAS ENGINE ONLY)
Description
The dual fuel system enables the standard gasoline engine to run on either gasoline or LP gas. The system includes pressurized cylinders mounted on the frame, and the valves and switches needed to switch the fuel supply from gasoline to LP gas or from LP gas to gasoline.
A two position, FUEL toggle switch at the ground control station supplies electrical power to open the LP gas shut­off solenoid and close the LP gas shut off solenoid when positioned to the GASOLINE position. This switch sup­plies electrical power to open the LP gas shut-off solenoid and close the gasoline shut-off solenoid when positioned to the LP position.
Changing From LP Gas to Gasoline.
1. With engine operating on LP under a no-load condi­tion, position DUAL FUEL switch at Ground Control Station to GASOLINE position.
2. If engine stumbles because of lack of gasoline, place the switch to LP position until engine regains smoothness, then return switch to GASOLINE posi­tion. Repeat as necessary until engine runs smoothly on gasoline.
3. Close hand valve on LP gas supply tank by turning clockwise.
5.3 OSCILLATING AXLE
The oscillating front axle is attached to the frame by a pivot pin which allows all four wheels to remain on the ground when traveling on rough terrain. The oscillating axle also incorporates two lockout cylinders connected between the frame and each wheel end. The lockout cylin­ders permit axle oscillation when the boom is centered over the rear, and lock and hold the axle when the boom is moved off center.
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 counterclockwise.
BE SURE GASOLINE IS EXHAUSTED BEFORE SWITCHING TO LP GAS. SEE STEP (3) BELOW.
3. While engine is operating, place DUAL FUEL switch at Ground Control to center OFF position. Allow engine to operate without load, until engine begins to stumble from lack of gasoline. As engine begins to stumble, place the switch to LP position, allowing LP gas to flow to the fuel regulator.
5.4 TOW PACKAGE
The tow package is required when it is necessary to move the machine without use of the drive and steer system.
TOWING IS PERMITTED ONLY FOR EMERGENCY TRAVEL ON THE JOBSITE. NO HIGHWAY TOWING IS PERMITTED.
