3.14 RUG CARRIER ACCESSORY
(MSP - OPTION)
NOTE: The Rug Carrier accessory is available only on the JLG
MSP model and is not authorized for use with any other
JLG lift. The Rug Carrier Accessory is intended for use in
hanging and removal of rugs in hanging display racks
only. Use for any other purpose is not authorized by JLG.
General
The Rug Carrier Accessory consists of two pivoting arms mounted
to the MSP platform left side rails. The pivoting arms are locked in
the plane of the platform side rail when not in use (the stowed
position). The arms are locked into position at approximately 90
degrees to the left side platform side rails when in use (the carry
position). The pivoting arms’ position can be changed by lifting
each arm to release the lock, rotating the arm, and lowering each
arm back into a locked position.
Pre-Start Inspection
Prior to use of the Rug Carrier accessory, check the following;
• Carrier arm mounting is secure to the platform railing, no
missing or damaged fasteners.
• The arm lock pins are in place and working properly.
