SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION

SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION

4.1 Description

This machine is a manually propelled machine, with a work platform mounted to an elevating aluminum mast mechanism. The personnel lift’s intended purpose is to provide personnel (with

their tools and supplies) access to areas above ground level.

The primary operator control station is in the platform. From this control station, the operator can raise and lower the platform. A ground control station is provided to lower the platform to the ground in an emergency if the operator in the platform is unable to do so, or if a power failure should occur.

Vibrations emitted by these machines are not hazardous to an operator in the work platform. The equivalent continous A-

Weighted sound pressure level at the work platform is less than

70dB(A).

4.2 Operating Characteristics And Limitations

Capacities

The platform can be raised above the stowed position if:

• The machine is positioned on a smooth, firm surface on which the machine is capable of being leveled.

• Load is within manufacturer’s rated capacity.

• All machine systems are functioning properly.

• The machine is leveled and outriggers are properly installed as indicated by the outrigger interlock LED lights on the base frame.

4.3 Battery Charging & Maintenance -

(DC Models Only)

AM-DC Models are equipped with a 12 volt, 10 amp output - dual voltage (120/240V) input battery charger. The charger is microprocessor controlled featuring an automatic charge sensing circuit which can determine cell voltage and regulate charger output and terminate charging as required.

Battery Maintenance and Safety

(See Figure 4-1.

)

BATTERY ACID IS HIGHLY CORROSIVE. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN

AND CLOTHING AT ALL TIMES.

BATTERY ACID RELEASES AN EXPLOSIVE GAS WHILE CHARGING,

ALLOW NO OPEN FLAMES, SPARKS OR LIGHTED TOBACCO PROD-

UCTS IN THE AREA WHILE CHARGING BATTERIES. CHARGE BATTER-

IES ONLY IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA.

ADD ONLY DISTILLED WATER TO BATTERIES. WHEN ADDING DIS-

TILLED WATER TO THE BATTERIES, A NON-METALLIC CONTAINER

KEY SPECIFICATIONS

MPG - Multipurpose Grease having a minimum dripping point of 350° F.

Excellent water resistance and adhesive qualities, and being of extreme pressure type. (Timken OK 40 pounds minimum.)

EPGL - Extreme Pressure Gear Lube (oil) meeting API service classification

GL-5 or MIL-Spec MIL-L-2105.

HO - Hydraulic Oil. ISO-Vg grade 32, 46.

CL - Chain Lube. Use a good quality chain lubricant

Hydraulic oils must have anti-wear qualities at least to API Service

Classification GL-3, and sufficient chemical stability for mobile hydraulic system service. JLG Industries, recommends Mobilfluid

424 hydraulic oil, which has an SAE viscosity of 10W-30 and a viscosity index of 152.

For cold weather applications, i.e. when temperatures remain consistently below +20°F (–7°C) JLG recommends using Mobil DTE

13 hydraulic oil.

Aside from JLG recommendations, 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. If use of hydraulic oil other than Mobilfluid 424 is desired, contact JLG

Industries for proper recommendations.

NOTE: Refer to Lubrication Chart, Table 7-2 for specific lubrication

locations on machine.

CL - Chain Lube. Use a good quality chain lubricant

Notes: 1. Be certain to lubricate like items on each side of the machine.

2. Recommended lubricating intervals are based on normal use. If machine is subjected to severe operating conditions,

such as a high number of cycles, location, corrosive/dirty environment, etc., user must adjust lubricating requirements accordingly.

3. Lubricating intervals are calculated on 50 hours of machine operation a week.

4. Prior to checking hydraulic oil level, operate machine through one complete cycle of lift function (full up and down). Failure to do so will

result in incorrect oil level reading on the hydraulic reservoir.
