SECTION 1 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Machine Inspection
• Before machine operation, perform inspections and
functional checks. Refer to Section 2 of this manual for
detailed instructions.
• Do not operate this machine until it has been serviced
and maintained according to requirements specified
in the Service and Maintenance Manual.
• Be sure all safety devices are operating properly. Modification of these devices is a safety violation.
MODIFICATION OR ALTERATION OF AN AERIAL WORK PLATFORM
SHALL BE MADE ONLY WITH WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM THE
MANUFACTURER.
• Do not operate any machine on which safety or
instruction placards or decals are missing or illegible.
• Check the machine for modifications to original components. Ensure that any modifications have been
approved by JLG.
• Avoid any buildup of debris on the platform floor. Keep
mud, oil, grease, and other slippery substances from
footwear and platform floor.
1.3OPERATION
General
• Do not use the machine for any purpose other than
positioning personnel, their tools, and equipment.
• Never operate a machine that is not working properly.
If a malfunctions occurs, shut down the machine.
• Never slam a control switch or lever through neutral to
an opposite direction. Always return switch to neutral
and stop before moving the switch to the next function. Operate controls with slow and even pressure.
• Do not allow personnel to tamper with or operate the
machine from the ground with personnel in the platform, except in an emergency.
• Do not carry materials directly on platform railing
unless approved by JLG.
• When two or more persons are in the platform, the
operator shall be responsible for all machine operations.
• Always ensure that power tools are properly stowed
and never left hanging by their cord from the platform
work area.
• Supplies or tools which extend outside the platform
are prohibited unless approved by JLG.
3128790– JLG Lift –1-3
SECTION 1 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not assist a stuck or disabled machine by pushing,
pulling, or by using extending structure functions.
• Do not place boom or platform against any structure
to steady the platform or to support the structure.
• Stow boom and shut off all power before leaving
machine.
Trip and Fall Hazards
During operation, occupants in the platform must wear a
full body harness with a lanyard attached to an authorized lanyard anchorage point. Attach only one (1) lanyard per lanyard anchorage point.

Electrocution Hazards
• This machine is not insulated and does not provide
protection from contact or proximity to electrical current.
• Maintain safe distance from electrical lines, apparatus,
or any energized (exposed or insulated) parts according to the Minimum Approach Distance (MAD) as
shown in Table 1-1.
• Allow for machine movement and electrical line swaying.
Table 1-1. Minimum Approach Distances (M.A.D.)
Voltage Range
(Phase to Phase)
0 to 50 KV10 (3)
Over 50KV to 200 KV15 (5)

Over 750 KV to 1000 KV45 (14)
NOTE: This requirement shall apply except where
employer, local or governmental regulations
are more stringent.
• Maintain a clearance of at least 10 ft. (3m) between any
part of the machine and its occupants, their tools, and
their equipment from any electrical line or apparatus carrying up to 50,000 volts. One foot additional clearance is
required for every additional 30,000 volts or less.
MINIMUM APPROACH DISTANCE
in Feet (Meters)
3128790– JLG Lift –1-5
SECTION 1 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• The minimum approach distance may be reduced if insulating barriers are installed to prevent contact, and the
barriers are rated for the voltage of the line being
guarded. These barriers shall not be part of (or attached
to) the machine. The minimum approach distance shall
be reduced to a distance within the designed working
dimensions of the insulating barrier. This determination
shall be made by a qualified person in accordance with
the employer, local, or governmental requirements for
work practices near energized equipment.
DO NOT MANEUVER MACHINE OR PERSONNEL INSIDE PROHIBITED ZONE (MAD). ASSUME ALL ELECTRICAL PARTS AND WIRING
ARE ENERGIZED UNLESS KNOWN OTHERWISE.
Tipping Hazards
• The user should be familiar with the surface before
operating. Do not exceed the allowable sideslope and
grade while operating.
•
• Do not elevate platform while on a soft surface.
• Before operating on floors, bridges, trucks, and other
surfaces, check allowable capacity of the surfaces.
• Never exceed the maximum platform capacity. Distribute loads evenly on platform floor.
• Do not raise the platform unless the machine is on firm
surfaces and outriggers are properly set.
• Keep the chassis and outriggers of the machine at
least 2 ft. (0.6m) from holes, bumps, drop-offs,
1-6– JLG Lift –3128790
obstructions, debris, concealed holes, and other
potential hazards on the floor/surface.
• Do not push or pull any object with the boom.
• Never attempt to use the machine as a crane. Do not
tie-off machine to any adjacent structure. Never attach
wire, cable, or any similar items to platform.

• Do not increase the surface area of the platform or the
load. Increase of the area exposed to the wind will
decrease stability and could result in a tip-over.
• Do not increase the platform size with unauthorized
platform extensions or attachments.
• If boom assembly or platform is in a position that one
or more outriggers are off the ground, all persons
must be removed before attempting to stabilize the
machine. Use cranes, forklift trucks, or other appropriate equipment to stabilize machine.
Crushing and Collision Hazards
• Approved head gear must be worn by all operating
and ground personnel.
• Check work area for clearances overhead, on sides,
and bottom of platform when lifting or lowering platform, and driving.
• During operation, keep all body parts inside platform
railing.
• Always post a lookout when driving in areas where
vision is obstructed.
• Keep non-operating personnel at least 6 ft. (1.8m)
away from machine during all operations.
1-8– JLG Lift –3128790
SECTION 1 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Be aware of stopping distances in all drive speeds.
When driving in high speed, slow down the machine
using the controllers before stopping.
• Do not use high speed drive in restricted or close
quarters or when driving in reverse.
• Under all travel conditions, the operator must limit
travel speed according to conditions of ground surface, congestion, visibility, slope, location of personnel, and other factors causing hazards of collision or
injury to personnel.
• Exercise extreme caution at all times to prevent obstacles from striking or interfering with operating controls
and persons in the platform.
• Be sure that operators of other overhead and floor
level machines are aware of the aerial work platform’s
presence. Disconnect power to overhead cranes.
• Warn personnel not to work, stand, or walk under a
raised boom or platform. Position barricades on floor if
necessary.
1.4LIFTING, AND HAULING
• Never allow personnel in platform while lifting or hauling the machine.
• Ensure boom is in the stowed position prior to lifting or
hauling. The platform must be completely empty.
• When lifting machine, lift only at designated areas of
the machine. Lift the unit with equipment of adequate
capacity.
• Refer to the Machine Operation section of this manual
for lifting information.
1.5ADDITIONAL HAZARDS / SAFETY
• Do not use machine as a ground for welding.
• When performing welding or metal cutting operations,
precautions must be taken to protect the chassis from
direct exposure to weld and metal cutting spatter.
• Do not refuel the machine with the engine running.
• Battery fluid is highly corrosive. Avoid contact with
skin and clothing at all times.
