SECTION 3 - USER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MACHINE CONTROL
3-10 – JLG Lift – 3121809
13. Platform Level
The PLATFORM LEVEL control switch allows the
operator to compensate for any difference in the
automatic self-leveling system by positioning the
switch up or down.
14. Platform Rotate
The platform ROTATE control switch allows operator
to rotate the basket to the left or right when posi-
tioned to the desired direction.
15. Articulating Jib Boom (If Equipped)
The Articulating Jib Boom control switch allows
operator to raise or lower the jib, as required.
16. Enable Indicator
This green illuminator indicates that the footswitch is
depressed and the platform controls are ready for
use. To enable the controls, depress the footswitch
and select any function within seven seconds. The
controls will then remain active as long as there is
not a delay of seven seconds between stopping one
function and starting the next one. If the seven sec-
ond interval is exceeded, the enable light will go out
and the controls will not operate. To enable the con-
trols again, remove your foot from the footswitch
and depress the footswitch.
17. Glow Plug Indicator
When illuminated the glow plugs are operating. After
turning on ignition, wait until light goes out before
cranking engine.
18. Axles Set Indicator
The green AXLES SET indicator lights to inform the
operator that the axles are set and locked in posi-
tion.
19. Fuel Select (Dual Fuel Engine Only) (If Equipped)
Gasoline or liquid propane fuel may be selected by
moving the switch to the appropriate position. It is
unnecessary to purge the fuel system before switch-
ing fuels, so there is no waiting period when switch-
ing fuels while the engine is running.
20. Lights Switch (If equipped)
The LIGHTS switch allows the operator to turn the
installed light options on or off.
21. Engine Distress Indicator Light
The light turns on and an alarm sounds when
machine’s power system requires immediate ser-
vice. Any of the following conditions will turn on light
and alarm: low engine oil pressure, high engine
coolant temperature, clogged engine air filter, low
alternator output, clogged hydraulic oil return filter,
or clogged charge pump filter.
22. Steer Select (If Equipped)
When equipped with four wheel steering, the action
of the steering system is operator selectable. The
center switch position gives conventional front
wheel steering with the rear wheels unaffected. This
is the best position for normal driving at maximum
speeds. The forward position is for “crab” steering.
When in this mode both front and rear axles steer in
the same direction, which allows the chassis to
move sideways as it goes forward. This can be used
for positioning the machine in aisle ways or against
buildings. The back switch position is for “coordi-
nated” steering. In this mode the front and rear axles
steer in the opposite directions to produce the tight-
est turning circle for maneuvering in confined areas.
NOTE: If the Drive Speed/Torque Select switch is positioned
for maximum drive speed, rear steer is disabled.
23. Soft Touch Indicator (If Equipped)
When illuminated (Yellow) the Soft Touch bumper is
against an object. All controls are cut out until the
override button is pushed, at which time controls are
active in the Creep mode.
24. AC Generator
When illuminated (Green), the light indicates the
generator is in operation.
25. Creep Speed Indicator.
Illuminated (Green) when the Function Speed Con-
trol is turned to the creep position, the indicator acts
as a reminder that all functions are set to the slowest
speed.
26. Low Fuel Indicator
When illuminated (Yellow), the fuel tank is 1/8 full or
less. When the light first turns on, there are approxi-
mately four usable gallons of fuel remaining.
