2. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
2.1. DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The JLG machine is a self‑propelled hydraulic lifting device, equipped with a rotating work
basket positioned at the top of an extendable articulated structure, which also rotates. The
JLG lifting device is destined for the POSITIONING OF PERSONS AND THEIR EQUIP‑
MENT AND MATERIALS IN HIGH POSITIONS WITH RESPECT TO GROUND LEVEL.
2.1.1 CONTROL POSITION
‑ CONTROL POSITION IN THE BASKET
The JLG aerial work platform has been designed to be controlled by the operator in the
basket using a remote control, where all of the machine functional controls are gathered,
positioned in the relevant support inside the basket (see photo). A optional pedal button is
also present in the basket to allow movement of the aerial part (photo). From this control
position it is possible to control the extendible structure and machine stabilisation. When the
machine is manoeuvred from the control position in the basket, the remote control must be
positioned in the appropriate seat, and the footswitch must be activated (the footswitch must
be release and activated again if no movements are made for more than 7 second). The remo‑
te control is connected to the machine using a flexible cable that allows to shift it if the basket
is to be removed or the ground control unit is to be used.
Stabilisation of the machine must be preferably controlled from the basket drive position.
Machine traversing must be carried out from the control position on the ground.
After accessing or leaving the control position in the basket, ALWAYS remember to close
the ladder, to avoid any damage when operating the machine.
After leaving the control position in the basket, always remember to close the remote con‑
trol protection cover.
