This section provides information needed by personnel
responsible to place machine in operation readiness and
maintain its safe operating condition. For maximum service
life and safe operation, ensure all necessary inspections and
maintenance have been completed before placing machine in

Preparation, Inspection, and Maintenance
It is important to establish and conform to a comprehensive
inspection and preventive maintenance program. The follow-
ing table outlines periodic machine inspections and mainte-
nance recommended by JLG Industries, Inc. Consult your
national, regional, or local regulations for further requirements
for aerial work platforms. Frequency of inspections and main-
tenance must be increased as environment, severity and fre-
quency of usage requires.
Pre-Start Inspection
It is the User’s or Operator’s primary responsibility to perform a
Pre-Start Inspection of the machine before use daily or at each
change of operator. Reference the Operator’s and Safety Man-
ual for Pre-Start Inspection procedures. The Operator and
Safety Manual must be read and understood in its entirety
before performing the Pre-Start Inspection.

dures are performed in the same manner, but at different
