Lull 844c-42 How Can I Read the Serial Number

1. I but bought a 1997 Lull 844C-42 (serial #97w14p22672) with 1800hrs at auction and I have a few questions.

   The car was described equally a 10,000# unit. Information technology has outriggers and looks similar the size of a 10K# unit. I accept never seen one of these boom forklifts with outriggers that wasn't a 10K# automobile. When looking online though, all the 844s are listed as viii,000# units. So, were the outriggers an pick on the viii,000# machines and this is 8K#, or is this really a 10K# motorcar?

   Second, what is the proper use of the traversing cab/ blast assembly? Is this just to extend forward reach distance?

   Third, anyone know where I could detect a transmission for this, either book style or a .pdf? I looked on eBay and there weren't any and there is very little info from Lull online because information technology looks like they were bought by JCB and they only take info on their site on the newer machines.

   On the traversing boom assembly, I read on hither where someone said to grease the wheels but brand certain to not get any grease on the rails and so that they wouldn't slide- does this audio correct?

   Finally, are in that location whatsoever trouble areas on this machine that I should look closely at when going through it when I become information technology abode? Also, I want to replace all the fluids when I become information technology to my store an need to get all the lube specs from somewhere. Is there an online resource for this or would that simply exist avail in the manual?

   Lulls aren't big on the w coast, so dealer support isn't the greatest.

   Whatsoever aid would exist GREATLY appreciated.

   Thank yous!

   Owners and parts manuals are on line at JLG.com 844 has a three secton boom and 1044-54 has four section. they also made a 1044C-42 three section boom.

   Traverse extends accomplish and makes it like shooting fish in a barrel to land at top. Your capacity will diminish as to carriage the load forward check the charts.

   I think I only saw 1 844c with outriggers in a picture show. Now I am doubting myself every bit I tin can't find the picture I saved.

   Yeah go on the roller surface and the runway dry or they slide and flatten. Bank check all the article of clothing pads and rollers. Check they roll and not slide. Article of clothing pad specs are at JLG.com serial number I can check later. postal service a pic of the ID plate in the cab or did your not get the machine dwelling house yet? Bank check chains and tension also. Cheque the planateries, diffs, tranny and filters

   Parts are no problem for the Lulls there are a few skilful parts suppliers that I know of.

   If information technology is an 844 I incertitude it will lift 10,000 lb. It volition increment chapters when you transfer the wagon forward. It does look similar an 844 and you may have found my missing link. I think information technology says 844 on the side correct? Can't really see great in the film. 844c has a boom similar yours pictured, the 10,000 1044C54 or 42 has a foursquare plate boom structure non rounded or rolled corners.

   If you don't mind me request what did y'all become it for and how many hours? Looks decent Proficient Luck!

4. Tire Ballast?

   Should this machine have tire ballast installed? I am putting on new tires and am wondering if it needs the ballast. If then, what is the best fabric to use? :beatsme

5. Radial tires?

   Ane other question on tires- the tire dealer has some radial tires (Double Coin) that he volition requite me a good bargain on and he says they take the potential to get close to twice the life. Would the radials exist a good tire for this machine? The Bias tires are about $100/tire less (Sampson), but to go twice the life would be proficient for a $400 investment.

   My three options are:
   Sampson bias- $325 ea
   Yokohama bias- $449 ea
   Double Coin radial- $420 ea

   Anyone have thoughts on this?

   95% sure it does. If y'all are using for construction you will want foam filled. start time y'all go a flat and empty all the calcium you volition be pissed!!! Plus the calcium rots the rims. I guess if you are using the machine a week here and a week in that location calcium would exist fine vs the big bucks for foam.
   On the tires, nosotros run Titans pretty good tires for the money cant recall the exact price (maybe 425 ea). We had a set of double coins on a dump truck and concluded up trading them in considering they were blowing out! We actually run Yokohamas now and they are good tires, dont think you would go wrong there. Also, you might try to get a cost on Denman tires they are pretty good also.
   I didnt read all the posts, that thing is a 1044c54 right??? They dont make an 8000 with out riggers??? I would be very supprised if information technology wasnt

7. Thanks for the input on the tires.

   On the 844 vs 1044 question, that'southward what I'g trying to become to the bottom of. I've never seen an 844 with outriggers either, and information technology looks to be the size of a 1044, but it does take an 844 sticker on the side. It was advertised as a 10K# machine.... :beatsme :beatsme I promise information technology is. At any rate, I'one thousand glad to have the outriggers.

   Await at the boom construction of a 1044 it is constructed of four plates of steel welded together. Your Lull does non have that it has 844 nail construction where the corners are rolled/rounded.

   You do need calcium in the tires. It is cheaper less wear and tear on the motorcar than cream. There is a ballast that volition not rot your rims look back a bit I ask the question. It was non available nearly me. If yous go a flat with calcium you tin can plug it with no tubes. Takes rims 10-xx years to rot from calcium. At that place should be a sticker on the frame thats states calcium is required, It will exist in the owners manual aslo if you read it.

   here is the link to tire ballast discussion https://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=11662
   I bought Titan tires likewise. They are made in the USA you could go Michelin radial and they are large bucks. Doubt you will go double on a radial tire for wear.

   When you replace a foamed tire you need to cutting the tire off and clean the rim. I rarely get flats may exist a nail or two a year and I plug them onsite which is easy.

   So was it an 844 with outriggers thanks

10. I'm thinking so. The boom construction is every bit speedpup said, and information technology does accept an 844 sticker on the side, and then I judge it is an 844 with outriggers. Go figure!

    On the topic of the Lull machines, is there a resident skilful on the Lull machines on here? Reason I am asking is that I am having some intermittent issues with the machine that are electrical in nature and I call up are related to a faulty sensor or lock-out circuit. I am having situations where the chassis tilt function is getting locked out and the rear axle is getting locked from being able to pin. My understanding is that these two functions are supposed to lock out when the boom is over 40 degrees, only mine is locking out with the boom down much lower than that. Anyone here that could help me troubleshoot?:beatsme:beatsme

    effort webequipment.com they assistance with problems / diagnosis if you buy parts at that place. Tin can't be many machines similar yours effectually. Squeamish characteristic. Did yous look at JLG manuals online they have trouble shooting on there I call up?

12. the serial number is stamped on frame rail and should start with 844 or 1044 in it. As for your lockout I think the pasition sensor on dorsum side of boom tells when to lock cheque clean and tight expert ground. when checking out check hoses in blast for atmospheric condition cracks nows the fourth dimension to change instead of on the job site.
