SECTION 3 - MACHINE OPERATION
Platform Operation Using Cordless Drill
(See Figure 3-18. and Figure 3-17.)
Please follow the manufacturer's instructions on safe operation
and maintenance of the cordless drill.
JLG recommends a cordless drill of at least 18V capacity.
If equipped, ensure cordless drill's "Hammer" setting is DIS-
ABLED and cordless drill is in "Drill" mode on medium to high
torque. Do not set to maximum torque setting.
Stop using the cordless drill if any part of it becomes excessively
hot. Wait until drill has cooled down and then continue opera-
tion.
USE ONLY CORDLESS DRILLS. DISCONTINUE USE OF THE CORDLESS DRILL IF A
FAULT IS DETECTED. ENSURE CORDLESS DRILL IS IN "DRILL" MODE ON MED-
UIM TO HIGH TORQUE SETTING, BUT NOT MAXIMUM TORQUE SETTING TO
AVOID INJURY.
WHEN USING CORDLESS DRILL, THE DRILL LANYARD (ITEM 4 - FIGURE 3-18.
ON PAGE 3-17) ONE END MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE UPPER MAST HANDLE
AND THE OTHER ATTACHED TO THE DRILL BEFORE ELEVATING THE PLAT-
FORM. DO NOT DROP DRILL.

Elevating/Lowering Platform
1. When using a cordless drill (1) to elevate/lower plat-
form; fasten one end of the supplied lanyard (4)
attached to the upper mast handle and the other end
secured around the handle of the cordless drill.
2. When ready, slide the cordless drill with the hex drive
bit installed into the hex shaped drive port on the top
of the mast. The hexagonal shaped drive bit is stored
in the platform manual pouch.
3. Firmly grasp drill, press down to engage drive bit into
driveshaft and apply power to operate the platform;
a. Clockwise drill operation will elevate the platform;
b. Counterclockwise drill operation will lower the
platform;
c. Releasing drill power trigger will stop all platform
movement.
d. When reaching full mast extension or retraction,
an internal slip-clutch within the mast assembly
will stop all mast movement.

ING THE PLATFORM. KEEP HANDS OR FEET OFF THE MAST ASSEMBLY AND
