1.1 INTRODUCTION
This service manual provides general directions for
accomplishing service and repair procedures. Following
the procedures in this manual will help assure safety and
equipment reliability.
Read, understand and follow the information in this
manual, and obey all locally approved safety practices,
procedures, rules, codes, regulations and laws.
These instructions cannot cover all details or variations in
the equipment, procedures, or processes described, nor
provide directions for meeting every possible contingency
during operation, maintenance, or testing. When additional
information is desired consult the local distributor.
Many factors contribute to unsafe conditions: carelessness,
fatigue, overload, inattentiveness, unfamiliarity, even
drugs and alcohol, among others. For optimal safety,
encourage everyone to think, and to act, safely.
Appropriate service methods and proper repair
procedures are essential for the safety of the individual
doing the work, for the safety of the operator, and for the
safe, reliable operation of the machine. All references to
the right side, left side, front and rear are given from the
operator’s seat looking in a forward direction.
Supplementary information is available from JLG in the
form of Service Bulletins, Service Campaigns, Service
Training Schools, the JLG website, other literature, and
through updates to the manual itself.
1.2 DISCLAIMER
All information in this manual is based on the latest
product information available at the time of publication.
JLG reserves the right to make changes and
improvements to its products, and to discontinue the
manufacture of any product, at its discretion at any time
without public notice or obligation.
1.3 OPERATION & SAFETY MANUAL
The mechanic must not operate the machine until the
Operation & Safety Manual has been read & understood,
training has been accomplished and operation of the
machine has been completed under the supervision of an
experienced and qualified operator.
An Operation & Safety Manual is supplied with each
machine and must be kept in the manual holder located
in the cab. In the event that the Operation & Safety
Manual is missing, consult the local distributor before
proceeding.
1.4 DO NOT OPERATE TAGS
Place Do Not Operate Tags on the ignition key switch and
the steering wheel before attempting to perform any
service or maintenance. Remove key and disconnect
battery leads.
1.5 SAFETY INFORMATION
To avoid possible death or injury, carefully read,
understand and comply with all safety messages.
In the event of an accident, know where to obtain medical
assistance and how to use a first-aid kit and fire
extinguisher/fire suppression system. Keep emergency
telephone numbers (fire department, ambulance, rescue
squad/paramedics, police department, etc.) nearby. If
working alone, check with another person routinely to
help assure personal safety.
1.5.1 Safety Alert System and Signal Words
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
