Applicable safety and service bulletins for your JLG product can be found by completing a search based on the serial number of your JLG product. 

JLG Industries recommends that you regularly check for any safety and service bulletins, which may affect your JLG product.

Always read and understand the Operation & Safety manual before operation of any JLG product. Do not operate any JLG products until properly trained. For machine inspections and maintenance required by JLG, refer to the appropriate Operation & Safety manual in conjunction with the appropriate Service & Maintenance manual for the specific model.

Make sure a copy of the Operation and Safety Manual, AEM Safety Manual (ANSI markets only), and ANSI Manual of Responsibilities (ANSI market MEWPs only) is enclosed in the weather resistant storage container of the MEWP or located in telehandler cab manual holder.

It is very important for JLG to maintain current ownership records.
