2.4 DAILY WALK-AROUND INSPECTION
It is the operators 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. (Figure 2- 3)
In addition to the Daily-Walk Around Inspection be sure to include the f o l lowing as par t of the daily inspection :
1. Overall Cleanliness.
TO AVOID INJURY DO NOT OPERATE A MACHINE UNTIL ALL MALFUNCTIONS HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. USE OF A MALFUNC­TIONING MACHINE IS A SAFETY VIOLATION.
NOTE: Check boom limit switches on upright for proper
operation and security, both visually and manually. Lower switch cuts out drive speed when Lower Boom is above horizontal. Upper switch cuts out drive speed when Upper Boom is above horizontal. Only creep drive speed will continue to function.
Check all standing surfaces for 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. Operators and Safety Manual. Ensure that a copy of this manual is enclosed in the
manual storage holder.
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 fully charged batteries.
6. Check platform footswitch for proper operation. Switch must be 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 Lubrication Chart, Figure 2-4, for spe­cific requirements.
2.5 DAILY FUNCTIONAL CHECK
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 control s, check all funct ions control led 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 MOVEMENTS DO N OT RETURN TO THE OFF POS I­TION WHEN RELEASED.
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 TO STOP MACHINE.
1. Check boom limit switches. Raise and lower the Lower Boom. Check for smooth operation. Check Boom Upright tilting. (See Section 4).
NOTE: Perfor m checks from ground controls first, then from
platform controls.
2-4 – JLG Lift – 3120883
2. Raise, extend, retract, and lower the Upper Boom. Check for smooth operation.
3. If tower boom does not rest on stop with machine in the stowed position, this indicates upright is out of plumb.
4. Telescope boom IN and OUT several cycles at vari­ous degrees of elevation lengths. Check for smooth telescope operation.
5. Swing turntable to LEFT and RIGHT a minimum of 45 degrees. Check for smooth motion.
6. Check the chassis out of level indicator located on the platform control console by driving, with the machine in level position, up a suitable ramp of at
least 4° slope. Check the out of level alarm, with the machine on the ramp, raise the upper boom until it is parallel with the chassis. DO NOT RAISE ABOVE THE PARALLEL POSITION. If the light does not illu­minate, return the machine to a level surface, shut down the machine, and contact a qualified techni­cian before resuming operation.
DO NOT DRIVE ON GRADES WHICH EXCEED THE RAT ED GRADEABILITY OF THE MACHINE AS INDICATED ON THE SERIAL NUMBER PLATE. DO NOT DR IVE ON SIDESLOPES WHICH EXCEED 3 DEGREES.
7. Check that platform self-leveling system functions properly during raising and lowering of boom.
8. Check rotator for smooth operation and assure plat­form will rotate 75 degrees in both directions from centerline of boom.
9. Drive forward and reverse; check for proper opera­tion.
SECTION 2 - PREPARATION AND IN SPECTION
FOOTSWITCH MUST BE DEPRESSED PRIOR TO ACTIVATING ANY FUNCTION CONTROL, OTHERWISE THE FUNCTION WILL NOT WORK.
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 qualified service technician.
12. Place the GROUND/PLATFORM SELECT switch to GROUND. Platform controls should not operate.
13. Place GROUND/PLATFORM SELECT switch to OFF. Platform/Ground controls should not operate.
2.6 TORQUE REQUIREMENTS
The Torque Chart ( Fig ur e 2 -5 ) co nsi st s o f s tan d ard tor qu e values based on bolt diameter and grade, also specifying dry, wet and loctite 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 at tention during t he walk-around inspection or during operation, until the proper service personnel can be notified. The Service and Mainte nance section provides specifi c to rque valu es and period ic ma in­tenance procedures with a listing of individual compo­nents. Utilizing this torque chart in conjunction with preventive maintenance section will enhance safety, reli­ability, and performance of the machine.
10. Steer left and right; check for proper operation.
11. Footswitch.
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" (6 MM) OF TRAVEL, TOP OR BOTTOM, IT SHOULD BE ADJUSTED.

Lubrication intervals are bas ed on machine operation under norm al conditions. For machines used in multi shift operations and/ or exposed to hostile envi­ronments or conditions, lubri cation frequencies must be increased accordingly .
* If necessary in stall grease f ittings into worm gear housin g and grease bearings.
DO NOT OVERGREASE BEARINGS. OVERGREASING BEARINGS WILL RESULT IN BLOWING OUTER SEA L IN HO US ING .
** Under certain conditions, it may be necessary to replace the hydraul ic filter on a more frequent basis. A common symptom of a dirty filter is sluggishness experienced in h ydraulic functions .

SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTROL
SECTION 3. USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTROL
3.1 GENERAL
SINCE THE MANUFACTURER HAS NO DIRECT CONTROL OVER MACHINE APPLICATION AND OPERATION, CONFORMANCE WITH GOOD SAFETY PRACTICES IN THESE AREAS IS THE RESPONSI­BILITY OF THE USER AND HIS/HER OPERATING PERSONNEL.
This section provides the necessary information needed to understand control functions. Included in this section are the operating characteris tic s and limitations, and func­tions and purposes of controls and indicators. It is impor­tant that the user read and understand the proper procedures before operating the machine. These proce­dures will aid in obtaining op timum lift service and s afe operation.
3.2 PERSONNEL TRAINING
The aerial platform is a personnel handling device; there­fore, it is essential that it be operated and maintained only by authorized and qua lified personnel w ho have demon­strated that they understand the proper use and mainte­nance of the machine. It is important that all personnel who are assigned to and are responsible for the operation and maintenance of the machine undergo a thorough training program a nd check out perio d i n order t o bec ome familiar with the characteristics prior to operating the machine.
Persons under the influence of drugs or alcohol or who are subject to seizures, dizziness or loss of physical con­trol must not be permitted to operate the machine.
Operator Training.

SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTRO L
3.3 OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS AND LIMITATIONS
General
A thorough knowledge of the operating characteristics and limitations of the machine is always the first require­ment for any user, regardless of the users experience with similar types of equipment.
Placards
Important points to remember during operation are pro­vided at the control stations by DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, IMPORTANT and INSTRUCTION placards. This information is placed at various locations for the express purpose of alerting personnel of potential hazards consti­tuted by the operating characteristics and load limitations of the machine. See FOREWORD for definitions of the above placards.
TO AVOID FORWARD OR BACKWARD UPSET, DO NOT O VER­LOAD MACHINE, OPERATE ON OUT-OF-LEVEL SURFACE OR OPERATE WITH THE BOOM UPRIGHT TILTING. (SEE FIGURE 4-2. UPRIGHT POSITIONING).
3.4 CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
These machines are equipped with control panels that use symbols and words to in dicate control function s. On some machines, the contro l panels may use symbols only. Refer to Table 3-1 for these symbols and their corre­sponding functions.
Ground Control Station
DO NOT OPERATE FROM GROUND CONTROL STATION WITH PERSONNEL IN THE PLATFORM EXCEPT IN AN EMERGENCY.
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. Proper tire pressure.
5. Machine is as originally equipped from JLG.
Stability
This machine as originally manufacture d by JLG Indus­tries, Inc., when operated within its rated capacity on a smooth, firm and level supporting surface and in accor­dance with the instructions provided on the machine and in this manual, provides a stable machine for all positions.
Machine stability is based on two (2) conditions which are called FORWARD stability and BACKWARD stability. The
machine’s position of least FORWARD stability is shown in Figure 3-1 and its position of least BACKWARD stability is shown in Figure 3-2.
PERFORM AS MANY PRE-OPERATIONAL CHECK AND INSPEC­TIONS FROM GROUND CONTROLS AS POSSIBLE.
NOTE: When machine is shut down the Platform/Ground
Select switch and Emergency Stop must be posi­tioned to OFF.
1. Power/Emergency Stop Switch. A two-position red mushroom shaped switch fur-
nishes power to PLATFORM/GROUND SELECT switch when pulled out (on). When pushed in (off), power is shut off to the PLATFORM/GROUND SELECT switch.
2. Platform/Ground Select Switch. A three position, key operated switch supplies
power to the platform control console when posi­tioned to PLATFORM. With the switch key held in the GROUND position, power is shut off to platform and only ground controls are operable. When released from GROUND position the switch spring returns to the (off) position.
NOTE: With PLATFORM/GROUND SELECT switch in the
center position, power is shut off to controls at both operating stations.

3. Rotate. A three position ROTATE control switch permits rota-
tion of the platform when positioned to left or right.
4. Platform Leveling Override. A three position LEVEL control switch allows the
operator to compensate for any difference in the automatic self leveling system by positioning the control switch to UP or DOWN.
5. Articulating Jib Boom (If equipped) The Articulating Jib Boom control switch provides
raising and loweri ng of the jib when positioned up or down.
6. Lower Boom Lift. Provides for raising and lowering of Lower Boom
when positioned to UP or DOWN.
7. Upper Boom Lift. Provides for raising and lowering of Upper Boom
when positioned to UP or DOWN.
8. Telescope. Provides for extension and retraction of Upper Boom
when positioned to IN or OUT.
9. Swing. The SWING control switch provides 360 degrees
non-continuous turntable rotation. To activate SWING, position switch to LEFT or RIGHT.
10. Circuit Breakers. The circuit breakers open (pop out) to indicate a
short or overload somewhere on the machine.
NOTE: The engine will automatically shut down under the
following conditions: High Oil Temperature
Low Oil Pressure Engine Overspeed Overvoltage
NOTE: The engine will not start if the batteries are fully
charged or if the Generator Enable switch on the platform console is not in the on position.
13. Generator/Engine Start Button. The generator/engine start push-button switch
allows the generator to be started manually to top­off the battery charge. The generator will start auto­matically when the batteries reach a low-charge state and the Generator Enable switch on the plat­form console is in the on position.
Platform Control Station
1. Footswitch. The footswitch is a safety feature. To operate any
function, the footswitch must be depressed and the function se lect ed wit hin sev en seco nds. The en able light in the light panel indicates that the controls are enabled; as long as functions continue to be used the controls remain 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 recycled to re-enable the con­trols.
Releasing the footswitch removes power from all controls and applies the drive brakes.
11. Battery Indicator and Hourmeter. An hourmeter, installed in the upper porti on of the
Ground Control Box, registers the amount of machine operating time. The hourmeter registers up to 9,999.9 hours and cannot be reset.
12. System Distress Indicator . The system distress indicator lights to signify an
abnormal condition for the generator engine (high oil temperature or low oil pressure) or, on all electric machines, an electrical system fault.
Updated 8-18-99
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT REM OVE, MODIFY OR DIS­ABLE THE FOOTSWITCH BY BLOCKING OR ANY OTHER MEANS.
FOOTSWITCH MUST BE DEPRESSED PRIOR TO ACTIVATING ANY FUNCTION CONTROL, OTHERWISE THE FUNCTION WILL NOT OPERATE.
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.

SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTROL
Figure 3-4. Platform Console
2. Power/Emergency Stop. A two-position red mushroom shaped switch fur-
nishes power to PLATFORM Controls when pulled out (on). When pushed in (off), power is sh ut off to the platform functions.
Within about 2 seconds of pulling the switch out, the machine will perform a d iagnostic check of the vari­ous electrical circuits, and if everything is OK, the platform alarm will beep once. During this time the lights on the indicator panel will also blink once as a bulb check.
3. Lower Boom Lift. Provides for raising and lowering of Lower and Mid
Boom when positioned to UP or DOWN. Upper lift will not function when operating lower lift.
NOTE: Main Lift, Swing, and Drive control levers are spring-
loaded and will automatically return to neutral (off) position w hen released.
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE IF ANY CONTROL LEVERS OR TOGGLE SWITCHES CONTROLLING PLATFORM MOVEMENT DO NOT RETURN TO T HE OFF OR NEU­TRAL POSITION WHEN RELEASED.
Updated 8-18-99
3120883 – JLG Lift – 3-7
SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTRO L
4. Main Lift/Swing. The dual axis joystick is provided for main lift and
swing. Push forward to lift up, pull backward to lift down. Move right to swing right, move left to swing left. Moving the joystick activates switches to pro­vide the functions selected. Proportional control of these functions can be attained by using the Func­tion Speed knob.
NOTE: Main lift and swing functions may be selected in
combination. The handle features a round gate so that maximum speed is reduced when multiple func­tions are selected.
Lower lift will not function when operating upper lift.
5. Telescope Control. The TELESCOPE control switch affords extension
and retraction of the main boom when positioned to IN or OUT.
6. Drive/Steer. The DRIVE controller provides for driving either for-
ward or backward when positioned to FORWARD or
REVERSE. The controller is ‘ramped’ to allow infi­nitely variable drive speed between fast and slow.
Positioning the steer control thumb operated switch RIGHT or LEFT enables steering the machine to the right or left respectively.
NOTE: When lower boom is raised above horizontal, or the
upper boom is raised approximately 16 inches (40.64 cm) above boom rest, the high drive function will automatically switch to low drive. This also occurs when Function Speed Control is clicked on creep.
NOTE: DRIVE control lever is spring-loaded and will auto-
matically return to neutral (OFF) position when released.
7. Posi-Track Control. Activating the Posi-Track switch allows the operator
to engage positive traction for the time period pre­set in the controller. Posi-traction occurs by chang­ing the drive motors from a series to parallel arrangement, causing available power to be distrib­uted evenly between the two drive wheels. The con­trol system may also engage the posi-track function automatically.
8. Posi-Track Indicator. This indicator lights to show that posi-traction is
operating.
9. Platform Leveling Override. The PLATFORM LEVEL control switch allows the
operator to adjust the level or the platform by posi­tioning the switch to UP or DOWN.
10. Articulating Jib Boom (If Equipped) Push toggle switch forward to lift up, pull back to lift
down.
11. Platform Rotate. The PLATFORM ROTATE control switch allows the
operator to rotate the basket to the left or right when positioned to the desired direction.
12. Function Speed Control. Adjusts speed of Boom and Swing Functions.
Rotate CCW for slower speed and CW for faster speed. To adjust Drive, Swing, and Main Lift to creep, turn knob fully CCW until it clicks.
13. Machine Out Of Level. This red illuminator indicates that the chassis is on a
slope (over 3 degrees). If the boom is above hori­zontal and the machine is on a 3 degree slope, an alarm will sound and CREEP is automatically acti­vated.
14. System Distress Indicator . The system distress indicator lights to signify an
abnormal condition for the generator engine (high oil temperature or low oil pressure) or, on all electric machines, an electrical system fault.
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.
Updated 8-18-99
3-8 – JLG Lift – 3120883
SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTROL
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 s teep grades which exceed the rated gradeability of the machine. This condition is comparable to stalling the engi ne by asking it to provide more power than it was designed to do.
c. The batteries are nearly depleted, and sh ould be
charged very soon to prevent having the machine st op at an inconve nient place.
d. There is some other fault in one of the circuits. If
so determine the cause by counting t he flash code, a number of flashes followed by a pause followed by another numb e r of flashes, and refer to the service manual.
NOTE: The engine will automatically shut down under the
following conditions: High Engine Oil Temperature
Low Engine Oil Pressure Engine Overspeed Generator Overvoltage
15. Generator Enable Control. The Generator Enable control switc h, w hen in the off
position, allows the operator to prevent the genera­tor engine from starting when using the machine indoors. When in the on position (and the ground Emergency Stop Swi tch on [ pull ed out] ), the gene r­ator is enabled to automatically start when the bat­teries need charged.
16. Horn. A push-type HORN switch supplies electrical power
to an audible warning device when pressed.
17. Circuit Breakers. The circuit breakers open (pop out) to indicate a
short or overload somewhere on the machine.

SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION
4.1 DESCRIPTION
This machine is a self-propelled hydraulic lift equipped with a work platform on the end of an elevating, articulat-
ing and rotating boom. The JLG Lift’s intended purpose is to position perso nnel with thei r to ols an d supp lie s at po si­tions above ground level, and can be used to reach work areas located above 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 or l ower the upp er or lowe r boom or swing the boom to the left or r ight. Standard boom swing is 360 degree non-continuous left and right of the stowed position . The machin e has a G round Control Station which will override the Platfor m Control Station. Ground Controls operate Upper and Lower Boom Lift and Swing, and are to be u sed in an em ergency to lo wer the platform to the ground should the operator in the platform be unable to do so. Grou nd Control also to be used in Pre-Operation check.
Instructions and hazard alerts are posted on the operator control stations and at other places on the machine. It is extremely important that operators know what instructions and hazard alerts are placed on the machine, and review these periodically so that they are fresh in their minds. Vibrations emitted by these machi nes are not hazardous to an operator in the work platform.
The JLG Lift is design ed to pro vid e efficient and safe oper­ation when main taine d and op era ted in a ccordance with warnings on the machine, in the Operators & 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 section and the Preparation and Inspection section, 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 supervi sor 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 obje ct .
The JLG Lift is powered using a hydraulic pump and cylin­ders for various functions. The hydraulic components are controlled by electrical ly activat ed hydraul ic valves us ing switches and control levers. Th e speeds of boom func­tions are variable from zero to maximum speed depend­ing upon the position of the function speed control. Functions controlled by toggle switches are either on or off. A foot operated switch in the platform must be depressed before any controls will function and provides a means of emergency stop when the operators foot is removed from the footswitch.
The JLG Lift is a two wheel drive machine with drive power being supplied by 2 electric mot ors thru plane tary gear reducers.
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 anywhe re the boom will reach, with the machine on a smooth, firm, and level surface.
4.2 GENERAL
This section provides the necessary information needed to operate the machine. Included in this section are proce­dures for traveling, steering, parking, platform loa ding and transporting. It is important that the user read and under­stand the proper procedures bef ore operating the machine.
4.3 MOTOR OPERATION Power/Emergency Stop
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.
NOTE: If equipped with the optional on-board generator, the
Emergency Stop switch must be left on (pulled out) to allow for automatic charging of the batteries.
Within about 2 seconds of pulling the sw itch out, the machine will p erform a di agnosti c check o f the vari ous electrical circuits, and if everything is OK, the platform alarm will beep once. During this time the lights on the indicator panel will also blink once as a bulb check.
