Platform Control Indicator Panel

(See Figure 3-6., Platform Control Indicator Panel)
NOTE: The platform control indicator panel uses different shaped sym-
bols to alert the operator to different types of operational situa­tions that could arise. The meaning of those symbols are explained below.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not corrected, could result in serious injury or death. This indicator will be red.
Indicates an abnormal operating condition, which if not corrected, may result in machine interruption or damage. This indicator will be yellow.
Indicates important information regarding the operat­ing condition, i.e. procedures essential for safe opera­tion. This indicator will be green with the exception of the capacity indicator which will be green or yellow depending upon platform position.
1. Tilt Alarm Warning Light and Alarm
This red illuminator indicates that the chassis is on a slope. An alarm will also sound when the chassis is on a slope and the boom is above horizontal. If lit when boom is raised or extended, retract and lower to below horizontal then reposi­tion machine so that it is level before continuing operation. If the boom is above horizontal and the machine is on a slope, the tilt alarm warning light will illuminate and an alarm will sound and CREEP is automatically activated.
IF TILT WARNING LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED WHEN BOOM IS RAISED OR EXTENDED, RETRACT AND LOWER TO BELOW HORIZONTAL THEN REPOSITION MACHINE SO THAT IT IS LEVEL BEFORE EXTENDING BOOM OR RAISING BOOM ABOVE HORIZONTAL.

The four likely causes of a system fault are:
a. The seven second enable time has been allowed to
lapse or a function was selected before depressing the footswitch. The system reads this condition as a fault, just as it would if the footswitch were jammed in the depressed position or a function switch were stuck in the on position. Re-depress the footswitch to power the controls and extinguish the light.
b. The maximum power limit has been reached and the
machine is not moving. This could happen when the machine is stuck or when attempting to travel over rough terrain or on steep grades which exceed the rated gradeability of the machine. This condition is comparable to stalling the engine by asking it to pro­vide more power than it was designed to do.
c. The batteries are nearly depleted, and should be
charged very soon to prevent having the machine stop
2. Platform Overload (If equipped)
Indicates the platform has been overloaded.
3. System Distress Indicator
The system distress indicator lights to signify an electrical system fault.

at an inconvenient place.
d. There is some other fault in one of the circuits. Deter-
mine the cause by counting the flash code, a number of flashes followed by a pause followed by another num­ber of flashes, and refer to the service manual.
When the boom is swung beyond the rear drive tires or fur-
ther in either direction, the Drive Orientation indicator will illuminate when the drive function is selected. This is a signal for the operator to verify that the drive control is being oper­ated in the proper direction (i.e. controls reversed situa­tions).
5. Posi-Track Indicator
This indicator lights to show that posi-track is operating.
6. Enable Indicator/Footswitch
To operate any function, the footswitch must be depressed and the function selected within seven seconds. The enable indicator shows that the controls are enabled. If a function is not selected within seven seconds, or if a seven second lapse between ending one function and beginning the next func­tion, the enable light will go out and the footswitch must be released and depressed again to enable the controls.
Releasing the footswitch removes power from all controls and applies the drive brakes.
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT REMOVE, MODIFY OR DISABLE THE FOOTSWITCH BY BLOCKING OR ANY OTHER MEANS.
SECTION 3 - MACHINE CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
FOOTSWITCH MUST BE ADJUSTED IF FUNCTIONS ACTIVATE WHEN SWITCH ONLY OPERATES WITHIN LAST 1/4" OF TRAVEL, TOP OR BOTTOM.
7. Low Battery Indicator
Indicates the batteries are low and need to be charged.
8. Creep Speed Indicator
When the Function Speed Control is turned to the creep position, the indicator acts as a reminder that all functions are set to the slowest speed.

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 350 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.

SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION

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 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. and Figure 4-
3.
TO AVOID FORWARD OR BACKWARD TIPPING, DO NOT OVERLOAD MACHINE OR OPER­ATE THE MACHINE ON AN OUT-OF-LEVEL SURFACE.

4.3 MOTOR OPERATION

Power/Emergency Stop Switch

This red, mushroom-shaped switch provides battery power to the Platform/Ground Select switch, when pulled out (on), for all machine functions. The switch should be pushed in (off) when recharging the batteries or parking the machine overnight.

Platform/Ground Select Switch

The Platform/Ground Select switch functions to direct battery power to the desired control station when the POWER/EMER­GENCY STOP switch is pulled out (on). With the switch in the GROUND position, battery power is supplied to the ground con­trol station. When the switch is in the PLATFORM position, battery power is supplied to the platform control station.
The key is removable in the platform position on CE machines. The key must be available to ground personnel in the event of an emergency.

Motor Activation

FOOTSWITCH MUST BE DEPRESSED PRIOR TO ACTIVATING ANY FUNCTION, OTHER­WISE FUNCTION WILL NOT OPERATE.
The motor becomes activated and operates the desired function when the Emergency Stop switch is pulled out (on), the Platform/ Ground select switch is in the appropriate position and the Foot­switch is depressed.
IF A MOTOR MALFUNCTION NECESSITATES UNSCHEDULED SHUTDOWN, DETERMINE AND CORRECT THE CAUSE BEFORE RESUMING ANY OPERATION.
ALWAYS POSITION EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH TO THE ‘OFF’ POSITION (PUSHED IN) WHEN MACHINE IS NOT IN USE.

4.4 TRAVELING (DRIVING)

See Figure 4-4., Grade and Side Slopes
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.
TO AVOID LOSS OF TRAVEL CONTROL OR “TIP OVER”, DO NOT DRIVE MACHINE ON GRADES EXCEEDING THOSE SPECIFIED ON THE SERIAL NUMBER PLATE.
DO NOT DRIVE ON SIDESLOPES WHICH EXCEED 5 DEGREES.
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN DRIVING IN REVERSE AND AT ALL TIMES WHEN THE PLATFORM IS ELEVATED.
MATCH THE BLACK AND WHITE DIRECTION ARROWS ON BOTH PLATFORM CONTROL PANEL AND THE CHASSIS TO DETERMINE THE DIRECTION THE MACHINE WILL TRAVEL.
SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION
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.

SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION

Traveling Forward and Reverse

1. At Platform Controls, pull out Emergency Stop switch and activate footswitch.
2. Position Drive controller to FORWARD or REVERSE as desired.
This machine is equipped with a Drive Orientation Indicator. The yellow light on the platform control console indicates that the boom is swung beyond the rear drive tires and the machine may Drive/Steer in the opposite direction from the movement of the controls. If the indicator is illuminated, operate the Drive function in the following manner:
1. Match the black and white direction arrows on both plat­form control panel and the chassis to determine the direc­tion the machine will travel.
2. Push and release the Drive Orientation Override switch. Within 3 seconds, slowly move the Drive control toward the arrow matching the intended direction of machine travel. The indicator light will flash during the 3 second interval until the drive function is selected.

4.5 STEERING

Position thumb switch on Drive/Steer controller to RIGHT for steering right, or to LEFT for steering left.

4.6 PLATFORM

ONLY USE THE PLATFORM LEVELING OVERRIDE FUNCTION FOR SLIGHT LEVELING OF THE PLATFORM. INCORRECT USE COULD CAUSE THE LOAD/OCCUPANTS TO SHIFT OR FALL. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.

Platform Level Adjustment

To manually Level Up or Down - Position the Platform/Level con­trol switch Up or Down and hold until the desired platform posi­tion is obtained.

Platform Rotation

To rotate the platform to the left or right, use the Platform Rotate control switch to select the direction and hold until desired posi­tion is reached.

SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION

4.7 BOOM

A RED TILT WARNING LIGHT IS LOCATED ON THE CONTROL CONSOLE WHICH LIGHTS WHEN THE CHASSIS IS ON AN EXCESSIVE SLOPE. DO NOT SWING OR RAISE BOOM ABOVE HORIZONTAL WHEN LIGHT IS LIT.
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT OPERATE MACHINERY IF ANY CONTROL LEVER OR TOGGLE SWITCH CONTROLLING PLATFORM MOVEMENT DOES NOT RETURN TO THE ‘OFF’ OR NEUTRAL POSITION WHEN RELEASED.
DO NOT DEPEND ON TILT ALARM AS A LEVEL INDICATOR FOR THE CHASSIS. TILT ALARM INDICATES CHASSIS IS ON AN EXCESSIVE SLOPE (5 DEGREE OR GREATER). CHASSIS MUST BE LEVEL BEFORE SWINGING, OR RAISING BOOM ABOVE HORIZONTAL OR DRIVING WITH THE BOOM ELEVATED.
TO AVOID TIP OVER IF RED TILT WARNING LIGHT LIGHTS WHEN BOOM IS RAISED ABOVE HORIZONTAL, LOWER PLATFORM TO GROUND LEVEL. THEN REPOSITION MACHINE SO THAT CHASSIS IS LEVEL BEFORE RAISING BOOM.
TRAVELING WITH BOOM BELOW HORIZONTAL IS PERMITTED ON GRADES AND SIDE SLOPES SPECIFIED ON SERIAL NAMEPLATE ON THE FRAME.
TO AVOID A COLLISION AND INJURY IF PLATFORM DOES NOT STOP WHEN A CONTROL SWITCH OR LEVER IS RELEASED, REMOVE FOOT FROM FOOTSWITCH OR USE EMER­GENCY STOP SWITCH TO STOP THE MACHINE.

SECTION 5 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

Platform or Boom Caught Overhead

If the platform or boom becomes jammed or snagged in over­head structures or equipment, rescue platform occupants prior to freeing the machine.

5.4 EMERGENCY TOWING PROCEDURES

Towing this machine is prohibited. However, provisions for mov­ing the machine have been incorporated. The following proce­dures are to be used ONLY for emergency movement to a suitable maintenance area.
THE ALLOWABLE TOWING SPEED IS 1.9 MPH (3 KPH). THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE TOWING DISTANCE IS 0.6 MILES (1 KM).
1. Chock wheels securely.
2. Engage the mechanical release on both drive hubs by loos-
ening, completely reversing, and tightening the two bolts on each hub.
3. Connect suitable equipment, remove chocks, and move machine.
After moving machine, complete the following procedure:
1. Position machine on a firm level surface.
2. Chock wheels securely.
3. Disengage the mechanical release on both drive hubs by
loosening, completely reversing, and tightening the two bolts on each hub.
4. Remove chocks from wheels as desired.

5.5 MANUAL DESCENT SYSTEM

(See Figure 5-1., Manual Descent Location)
The manual descent system is used, in the event of total power fail­ure or in case the key is not accessible to the ground personnel, to lower the upper and lower booms using gravity. The jib lift cylinder must be pumped down. To operate the manual descent system, pro­ceed as follows:
1. Locate the manual descent knob on the boom function valve. Push the knob in to lower the tower and pull the knob out to lower the main boom. The knob must be held in place to perform the lowering function; it is spring loaded to return to center when released. Install handle into manual descent pump and lower the selected cylinders by pumping the handle until the boom is completely lowered.
2. If equipped with a jib, locate the split ring on the boom func­tion valve. Push the split ring in to lower the jib or pull the split ring out to raise the jib by pumping the handle until it is completely lowered or raised. Stow the handle in bracket provided.

5.6 MANUAL SWING OVERRIDE

The manual swing override is used to manually swing the boom and turntable assembly in the event of a total power failure when the platform is positioned over a structure or obstacle. To operate the manual swing override, proceed as follows:
1. Using a 7/8 inch socket and ratchet wrench, locate nut on swing worm gear on left side of machine.
2. Install wrench on nut and ratchet in the direction desired.

5.7 MACHINE SAFETY SYSTEM OVERRIDE (MSSO)(CE ONLY)

The Machine Safety System Override (MSSO) is only to be used to retrieve an operator that is pinned, trapped, or unable to operate the machine and function controls are locked out from the platform due to a platform overload sit­uation.
NOTE: If the MSSO functionality is used, the fault indicator will flash
and a fault code is set in the JLG Control System which must be reset by a qualified JLG Service Technician.
NOTE: No functional checks of the MSSO system are necessary. The JLG
Control system will set a Diagnostic Trouble Code if the control switch is faulty.
To operate the MSSO:
1. From the ground control console, place the Platform/ Ground Select switch in the Ground position.
2. Pull out the Power/Emergency Stop control.
3. Start the engine.
4. Press and hold the MSSO switch and the control switch for
the desired function.

6.4 BATTERY MAINTENANCE AND CHARGING

TO AVOID INJURY FROM AN EXPLOSION, DO NOT SMOKE OR ALLOW SPARKS OR A FLAME NEAR BATTERY DURING SERVICING. ALWAYS WEAR EYE AND HAND PROTEC­TION WHEN SERVICING BATTERIES.

Battery Maintenance, Quarterly

1. Open battery compartment cover to allow access to battery terminals and vent caps.
WHEN ADDING WATER TO BATTERIES, ADD WATER UNTIL ELECTROLYTE COVERS PLATES. DO NOT CHARGE BATTERIES UNLESS ELECTROLYTE COVERS THE PLATES.
NOTE: When adding distilled water to batteries, non-metallic contain-
ers and/or funnels must be used.
To avoid electrolyte overflow, add distilled water to batteries after charging.
When adding water to the battery, fill only to level indicated or 3/ 8" (9.5 mm) above separators.
2. Remove all vent caps and inspect electrolyte level of each cell. Electrolyte level should be to the ring approximately one inch from top of battery. Fill batteries with distilled water only. Replace and secure all vent caps.
3. Remove battery cables from each battery post one at a time, negative first. Clean cables with acid neutralizing solution (e.g. baking soda and water or ammonia) and wire brush. Replace cables and/or cable clamp bolts as required.
4. Clean battery post with wire brush then re-connect cable to post. Coat non-contact surfaces with mineral grease or petroleum jelly.
5. When all cables and terminal posts have been cleaned, ensure all cables are properly positioned and do not get pinched. Close battery compartment cover.
6. Start hydraulic system and ensure that it functions properly.
3121252 – JLG Lift – 6-13
SECTION 6 - GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS & OPERATOR MAINTENANCE

Battery Charging, Daily

NOTE: To avoid excessive battery charging time, do not allow batteries
to become completely discharged.
To avoid electrolyte overflow, add distilled water to batteries after charging.
When adding water to the battery, fill only to level indicated or 3/ 8" above separators.
1. Charge batteries at the end of each work day, or when machine performance is significantly reduced due to batter­ies becoming discharged.
2. Charge batteries in accordance with the following proce­dure:
a. Open battery compartment, and battery charger com-
partment covers.
WHEN BATTERY CHARGER IS TO BE USED, CHARGING HARNESS MUST BE PLUGGED INTO A GROUNDED RECEPTACLE. IF RECEPTACLE IS NOT GROUNDED AND A MALFUNC­TION SHOULD OCCUR, THE MACHINE COULD CAUSE SERIOUS ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
b. Remove charging harness cable and connect to a
receptacle or the correct voltage.
c. Allow batteries to charge until 100% LED is illuminated.
NOTE: When batteries are completely charged, disconnect charging
harness cable from receptacle. Store charging harness cable.

6.5 TIRES & 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:
3121252 – JLG Lift – 6-15
SECTION 6 - GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS & OPERATOR MAINTENANCE
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. Follow-
ing the recommended sequence, tighten nuts per wheel torque.
Table 6-16. Wheel Torque Chart
TORQUE SEQUENCE
1st Stage 2nd Stage 3rd Stage
40 ft lbs (55 Nm) 95 ft lbs (130 Nm) 170 ft lbs (230 Nm)
4. Wheel nuts should be torqued after first 50 hours of opera­tion and after each wheel removal. Check the torque after the first 10 miles, 25 miles, and again at 50 miles. Check peri­odically thereafter.

6.6 SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

The following information is provided in accordance with the requirements of the European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and is only applicable to CE machines.
