JLG BOOM LIFTS 34HA: Daily Battery Maintenance and Charging

Use this battery maintenance checklist to ensure your battery keeps functioning as it should be. This will also help you avoid from getting a new battery by regularly checking your vertical mast.

NOTE: To avoid excessive battery charging time, do not allow batteries to become completely discharged.

Charge batteries at the end of each work day, or when machine performance is significantly reduced due to batteries becoming discharged.

Charge batteries in accordance with the following procedure:

Open battery compartment, and battery charger compartment covers.
Remove charging harness cable and connect to a 110 volt receptacle
Allow batteries to charge until ammeter on charger, if equipped, is reading zero (0). Normal charging time is 8-10 hours.
Ensure battery cables are positioned and are not pinched. Close and secure all compartment doors.

The battery packs on each side of the frame are designed to be easily removed so that a machine can have two sets of them in order to keep the machine functioning longer. Disconnect the cable quick connects, and remove the two clevis pins on top of the frame. Now, using the forklift pockets under the packs, have a forklift move them to a place where they can be recharged. The new battery packs can be installed by reversing the above procedure
