SECTION 4 - MACHINE OPERATION
4-8 – JLG Lift – 3121636
WHEN DRIVING ON SIDE-SLOPES, EXTEND THE LOW SIDE OUTRIGGERS
UNTIL THEY ARE CLOSE TO THE GROUND TO HELP PREVENT A TIP-OVER
IF A CHANGE IN SURFACE OCCURS. (SEE FIGURE 4-3.) DRIVE ON SIDE-
SLOPES WITH THE BOOM STOWED. DO NOT DRIVE ON SIDESLOPES
WHICH EXCEED 10 DEGREES.
The machine is equipped with automatic tilt sensing during
driving, the possible driving speeds are adjusted according
to the weight in platform, undercarriage retracted or
extended, position of JIB and inclination of the ground.
In case of approach to dangerous inclinations for machine’s
stability, both lateral and longitudinal, an alarm is activated
and afterwards further movement is prohibited. The only
allowed operation to exit this condition is activate the
movement override, pressing button 8 on platform/remote
control, (displays TRACK ON allowing 8 seconds of drive time
with each press of the override button) and reposition the
machine to a safer condition, reducing the inclination. It is
absolutely forbidden to increase the inclination of the
machine as it could cause machine tipping with consequent
danger for operator or people nearby the machine.
It is the operator’s responsibility to run the machine safely,
checking the ground conditions, evaluating the obstacles
and dangers in the working area, and following the rules of
this manual and indications on decals and display of the
machine.
