INTRODUCTION

SECTION A. INTRODUCTION - MAINTENANCE SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS

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 VIOLA-

TION.

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/OPER-

ATOR.

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 SERVICEMANUAL.

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 BLOCKING OR OVERHEAD SLING, OR BOOM SAFETY PROP HAS BEEN ENGAGED.

BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATING OR PERFORMING ANY OTHER MAINTENANCE, SHUT OFF ALL POWER CONTROLS.

BATTERY SHOULD ALWAYS BE DISCONNECTEDDURING REPLACEMENT OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS.

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.

KEEP ALL SUPPORT EQUIPMENT AND ATTACHMENTS STOWED IN THEIR PROPER PLACE.

USE ONLY APPROVED, NONFLAMMABLE CLEANING SOLVENTS.

SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES

SECTION 2. PROCEDURES

2.1GENERAL

This section provides information necessary to perform maintenance on the aerial platform. 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.

2.2SERVICING 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

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 oil supplies clean; however, these items must be maintained on a scheduled basis in order to function properly.

2.At any time when hydraulic 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.

Component 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 degrees.

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.

3120884

– JLG Lift –

2-1

SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES

Bearings

 

Hydraulic Lines and Electrical Wiring

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.

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 be installed.

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.

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 are 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.

Lubrication

Service applicable components with the amount, type, and grade of lubricant recommended in this manual, at the specified interval. 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 Lubrication Chart.

3120884

SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES

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.; 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.

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 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.

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 Mobil DTE-11 Hydraulic Oil, which has an SAE viscosity of 10W and a viscosity index of 140.

NOTE: Start-up of hydraulic system with oil temperatures below -29 degrees C. 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 100VAC heater to a minimum temperature of -29 degrees C.

3.Some machines may be specially equipped with Mobil EAL224H biodegradable and non-toxic hydraulic oil. This oil is vegetable oil based and pos-

sesses the same antiwear and rust protection characteristics as mineral oils, but will not adversely affect ground water or the environment when spilled or leaked in small amounts. Mobil EAL224H has a viscosity of 34 cST at 40° C and a viscosity index of 213. The operating range of this oil is -18° C to +83° C.

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT MOBIL EAL224H HYDRAULIC OIL BE STORED ABOVE FREEZING (0 C) AS THE OIL MAY APPEAR CLOUDY AFTER EXPOSURE TO LOW TEMPERATURES FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. THE CLOUDINESS WILL DISAPPEAR

WHEN THE OIL IS WARMED TO AT LEAST 10 C AND AGITATED. DO

NOT ATTEMPT TO "THIN" THE OIL WITH NO.2 DIESEL FUEL. FOR BEST RESULTS, STORE THE OIL ABOVE FREEZING.

NOTE: Accidentally mixing Mobil EAL224H hydraulic oil with other mineral oils will cause no loss of performance characteristics. However, biodegradability may be reduced and toxicity may be increased, depending on the oil and level of contamination.

Changing Hydraulic Oil

1.Use of any of the recommended 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 every two years.

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.

SECTION 2 - PROCEDURES

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 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.

2.4BATTERY MAINTENANCE AND CHARGING

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 ELEC-

TROLYTE COVERS PLATES. DO NOT CHARGE BATTERIES UNLESS ELECTROLYTE COVERS THE PLATES.

NOTE: When adding distilled water to batteries, non-metallic containers 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 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.

c.Charge the batteries at available times between charging.

d.Be sure the battery fluid covers the battery plates before charging, but to avoid overflow, do not top off the fluid level until charging.

2.To charge the batteries, connect the charger to a 115 volt source with a 15 amp minimum capacity.

3.The Charger will shut off automatically when the batteries are fully charged.

4.The charge cycle is complete when the ammeter reads 0 amps. Any reading indicates the charge cycle is not complete.

5.Depleted batteries will take approximately 17 hours to charge.

2.5CYLINDERS - THEORY OF OPERATION

Upper Boom Lift, Mid Boom Lift, Lower

Boom Lift, Telescope, Slave, Master, Rotator,

and Steer

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.

17.Position the cylinder barrel in a suitable holding fixture.

EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN INSTALLING THE CYLINDER ROD, HEAD, AND PISTON. AVOID PULLING THE ROD OFF-CENTER, WHICH COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE PISTON AND CYLINDER BARREL SURFACES.

18.With barrel clamped securely, and while adequately supporting the rod, insert the piston end into the barrel cylinder. Ensure that the piston loading o-ring and seal ring are not damaged or dislodged.

19.Continue pushing the rod into the barrel until the cylinder head gland can be inserted into the barrel cylinder.

20.Secure the cylinder head gland using the washer ring and socket head bolts.

Figure 2-15. Rod Assembly Installation

21.After the cylinder has been reassembled, the rod should be pushed all the way in (fully retracted) prior to the reinstallation of any holding valve or valves.

22.If applicable, install the cartridge-type holding valve and fittings in the rod port block, using new o-rings as applicable. (See Table 2-3, Holding Valve Torque Specifications).

IF THE CYLINDER IS TO BE TESTED PRIOR TO INSTALLATION ON

THE MACHINE, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE USED TO INSURE

THAT THE OUTER END OF THE ROD IS SUPPORTED. USE EITHER A TRAVELING OVERHEAD HOIST, FORK-LIFT, OR OTHER MEANS TO SUPPORT THE OVERHANGING WEIGHT OF THE

EXTENDING ROD.
