Finding Parts
If I Have A Part Number, How Do I Find It And Place An Order?
There are several ways to search using your part number. The search bar at the top of the page will return search results or link you to a product detail page when a part number is entered.
You can also use the "Order Now" option in the left-hand navigation bar to enter one or multiple part numbers. This will add the parts to your cart. Additionally, you can go directly to your cart, and on the right-hand side, there is an option to add a part number.
If I Have My Machine Serial Number, How Can I Find The Parts I Need?
There are two ways you can use a machine serial number to obtain a list of parts. Using the "Parts" option on the top navigation bar, select "Equipment Information." Here you can input a serial number and view a machine-specific build sheet (Pick List) or component index.
You can also use the "Interactive Manuals" option in the left-hand navigation bar to search for the machine's Parts Manual which contains diagrams of your machine. From the diagrams, you can add parts directly to your cart.
How Do I Look Up The Parts I Need If I Don't Have A Serial Number Or Part Number?
The best thing to do if you don't know your machine serial number or the part number is to use your machine's make and model information to search for the right manuals.
Using the "Interactive Manuals" option in the left-hand navigation, start with the brand for your machine. Then navigate the index choosing each option that applies to your model.
If the model number is not known, you may use the "Aftermarket Products" option on the left-hand navigation bar which offers many categories of parts to browse. Searches by keywords, such as "filter" or "batteries," can be done in the search bar at the top of the page as well.
Where Can I Find A Recommended Spare Parts List So That I Can Stock What I Will Need For My JLG Machines?
Using the "Interactive Manuals" option on the left-hand navigation bar, select the "SmartEquip Quicksearch" option to search by serial number or use the machine make and model.
Either search will lead you to a Parts Manual. Once in the manual, look for the Recommended Service Parts section.

How Can I Verify If My Machine Is Still Under Warranty?
Using the "Parts" option on the top navigation bar, select "Equipment Information." Enter your machine's serial number to view the in-service date.
For most machines, the standard warranty extends for one year from the date the machine was placed in service. If you have an extended warranty, the warranty will be in effect for the designated length of time of the extended warranty starting from the in-service date.

Once all desired part numbers are entered, you have the options to "Add to Shopping List" or "Add to Cart." Choosing to add to the shopping list will save the part numbers for use at a later time.
- If you want to order this group of parts now but also retain the list for repeat orders in the future, add them to your cart. Go to your cart, and prior to checking out, click "Add to Shopping List" for either all the parts or for each part that you want to add to a list for later use.
To manage your lists, go to the My Account section, Shopping List. You can edit, print or share your list from there.
Can I Import A Parts List From Excel?
Yes. Using the "Order Now" option on the left-hand navigation bar, click the "Import a .CSV File" button. A .CSV file is a type of Excel document and is the only acceptable file format.
Please note: There are some additional file requirements that will populate once you select the "Import a .CSV File" option.
How Do I Manage Multiple Ship-To Addresses?
