PROBABLE CAUSE
Check powerpack charged and in correctly fitted and is fully down and latched down.
Lower platform using manual descent procedure (see Section 4.1). Refer to Authorized JLG Ser-
vice Center.
With no load in the platform or on the base - lift the castor deploy handle on front of base, adja-
cent to platform gate. Castor should deploy and lift front of machine off adjustable feet to allow
machine to roll easily on rear wheels and front castor.
Replace castor.
With no load in platform and people clear of adjustable feet - exert approximately 55 ft. lb.
(25Kg) pressure onto front of base. Castor should retract. Adjustable feet should then be able to
be used to level the machine on slopes less than 2 degrees front to back. Do not use the
machine on any side slope.
Only use the machine on firm and level surfaces.
