Oil Filling

Oil Type & Capacity:
The gearbox is designed to utilize the same oil throughout
its service life. However, should it need to be serviced the
oil could need to be drained and replaced.
When serviced, fill the unit with ISO VG220 oil.
The gearbox will need to be filled with 2 liters (0.53 Gal.) of
oil.
NOTE: Prior 02/2016, the oil filling procedure requires the
drive motor disassembly. Since 02/2016, the gear-
box is equipped with a filler cap.

1. Prior 02/2016: Drain and flush the gearbox, position
it vertically and fill with the required amount of oil.
Since 02/2016: Filling the gear is carried by the filling
hole until the oil reaches the tapping hole (gearbox
in horizontal position). Put the filler cap (20).
Sealing between the gearbox and the motor is ensured by
the lip seal (18) located under the spring washer (19).
Replace if necessary. When changing the seal, lubricate
with grease SKF LGHT or LGPH 2, MOBILUX EP 2 or Esso
Unirex N3. Properly install the seal to abutment using a
sleeve external diameter 50 to 52 mm (2").

4.2 WHEELS AND TIRES

Tire wear and damage

Inspect tires daily for wear or damage. Tires with worn
edges or distorted profiles require replacement.
Tires with significant damage in the tread area or side wall,
require immediate evaluation before replacing the
machine into service.

Wheel and Tire Replacement

Replacement wheels must have the same diameter and
profile as the original. Replacement tires must be the
same size and rating as the tire being replaced. Use of
genuine JLG parts is highly recommended.

Wheel Installation

It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper
wheel mounting torque.
WHEEL LUG NUTS MUST BE INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED AT
THE PROPER TORQUE TO PREVENT LOOSE WHEELS, BROKEN
LUG NUTS, AND POSSIBLE SEPARATION OF WHEEL FROM THE
AXLE. BE SURE TO USE ONLY THE LUG NUTS MATCHED TO THE
CONE ANGLE OF THE WHEEL.
Tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque to prevent
wheels from coming loose. Use a torque wrench to tighten
the fasteners. DO NOT use impact wrench. If you do not
have a torque wrench, tighten the fasteners with a lug
wrench, then immediately have a service garage or dealer
tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque. Over-tightening
will result in breaking the lug nuts or permanently deform-
ing the mounting holes in the wheels. The proper proce-
dure for attaching wheels is as follows:
1. Start all lug nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.
DO NOT use a lubricant on threads or nuts.
2. Tighten lug nuts in the following sequence.
