Always check the correct levelling of the machine after every self‑levelling operation.

Approximate levelling outside of the limits set by the manufacturer is very dangerous and
can affect the stability of the platform, which represents a risk, even deadly, for the operator
and other persons working on the machine and near it.

Never intervene on the spirit level adjustments; this device is calibrated by the Constructor
during the inspection before sale. Only technicians authorised by the Constructor and in pos‑
session of suitable tools can intervene on the spirit level.

IN LOCKING BOLTS AND NUTS

All the pins used on the JLG platform were treated against wear and are fitted with welded
flanges (1) to prevent them from rotating inside their seat. Some pins have bolts to stop rota‑
tion (2) while others pins have a joint in the structure of the machine (3).
The pins in the most delicate positions are threaded at the ends and are fitted with self‑
locking nuts (4) or self‑locking threaded ring nuts to prevent the structure from subsiding.
Check the correct tightness of all the pin locking devices according to the intervals indicated
by the manufacturer of the machine.

Never loosen the pin locking devices and periodically check they are correctly tightened. A
pin that comes off its housing, even partially, may cause unexpected and uncontrollable
movements and even cause the machine to lose stability and/or the basket to fall.
