SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION
3121110 – JLG Lift – 4-5
4.9 SAFETY PROP
THE SAFETY PROP MUST BE USED WHENEVER MAINTENANCE
PERFORMED ON THE MACHINE REQUIRES THE SCISSOR ARMS
TO BE RAISED.
To engage the safety prop, raise the platform, then pull the
plunger pin to drop the safety prop until it hangs vertically.
Lower the platform until the safety prop rests on the cross
member of the arm below. Maintenance can now begin.
To store the safety prop, raise the platform so that the
prop can be rotated counterclockwise until the plunger
pin locks it in position.
4.10 TIE DOWN/LIFT LUGS
When transporting the machine, the platform extension
must be fully retracted and the platform fully lowered in
the stowed mode with the machine securely tied down to
the truck or trailer deck. Four tie down/lift lugs eyes, one at
each corner of the machine frame, are provided for
machine tie-down.
Lifting
If it becomes necessary to lift the machine, it is possible to
do so from the tie down/lift lugs. These lugs enable the
machine to be lifted using cranes or other suitable lifting
devices.
NOTE: If lifting becomes necessary from the lifting lugs, JLG
Industries Inc. recommends the use of a proper
spreader bar to avoid damage to the machine.
4.11 TOWING
It is not recommended that this machine be towed, except
in the event of an emergency such as a machine malfunc-
tion or a total machine power failure. Refer to Section 6 for
emergency towing procedures.
