JLG INDUSTRIES, INC. 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED	FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31 1994
(unaudited)

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have 
been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore, do 
not include all information and notes necessary for a fair presentation of 
financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles.  However, such financial statements 
include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which 
management of the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the 
results of operations.

Interim results for the three months ended October 31, 1994 are not
necessarily an indication of the results for the fiscal year as a whole.  For
further information, refer to consolidated financial statements and notes
included in the Form 10-K filing for the fiscal year ended July 31, 1994.


NOTE B - INVENTORIES AND COST OF SALES

A precise inventory valuation under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method can 
only be made at the end of each fiscal year; therefore, interim LIFO inventory 
valuation determinations, including the determination at October 31, 1994, must
necessarily be based on management's estimate of expected fiscal year-end 
inventory levels and costs.


NOTE C - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to personal injury and property damage litigation 
arising out of incidents involving the use of its products.  Annually the 
Company sets its product liability insurance program based on the Company's 
current and historical claims experience and the availability and cost of 
insurance.  The combination of these annual programs constitutes the Company's 
aggregate product liability insurance coverage.  The Company's program for 
fiscal year 1995 is comprised of a self-insurance retention of $5 million and 
catastrophic coverage of $20 million in excess of the retention.

Cumulative amounts estimated to be payable by the Company with respect to 
pending product liability claims for all years in which the Company is liable 
under its self-insurance retention have been accrued as liabilities, including 
$2.9 million for incidents the Company believes may result in claims.  
Estimates of such accrued liabilities are based on an evaluation of the merits 
of individual claims and historic claims experience; thus, the Company's 
ultimate liability may exceed or be less than the amounts accrued.  Amounts 
accrued are paid over varying periods, which generally do not exceed five 
years.  The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting 
accrued liability are reviewed continually and any adjustments resulting 
therefrom are reflected in current earnings.

As is customary in the heavy equipment industry, the Company has entered into 
limited recourse agreements with various commercial finance companies to 
provide equipment financing to its distributors.  Under these arrangements, the
Company is required, in the event of a distributor's default, to purchase the 
notes from the finance companies and liquidate the supporting collateral, or to
reimburse such institutions for certain deficiencies resulting from their 
repossession and resale of the equipment.  The Company was contingently liable 
at October 31, 1994 for approximately $3.4 million of contingent losses under 
such arrangements and has accrued as a liability estimated losses of $1.5 
million thereunder.   



                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The information given below is intended to assist in understanding the 
Company's financial condition and results of operations as reflected in the 
Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (pages 3 through 7).

As a manufacturer of capital goods, the Company is primarily dependent upon 
sales to the construction and industrial sectors of the economy.  Business in 
these sectors, particularly the construction sector, tends to be cyclical; 
thus, demand for the Company's products, and ultimately the Company's financial
performance and cash flows, tends to fluctuate in response to the business 
cycles within these sectors.

LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL

Current assets as a percent of current liabilities were 219% at October 31, 
1994, compared to 208% at July 31, 1994.  Working capital was $36.0 million at 
October 31, 1994, compared to $32.4 million at July 31, 1994.  The improvement 
in the ratio of current assets to current liabilities and the higher level of 
working capital at October 31, 1994, were  primarily due to the accumulation of
cash generated by operating activities.

At October 31, 1994, the Company had unused credit lines totaling $11 million 
and cash balances of $11.6 million.  The Company considers these resources, 
coupled with cash expected to be generated by operations, adequate to fund its 
anticipated fiscal 1995 working capital needs and estimated capital 
expenditures of $11 million.

The Company's exposure to product liability claims and its contingent liability
relative to the support of equipment financing for its distributors are 
discussed in NOTE C - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES.  Future results of 
operations, financial condition and liquidity may be affected to the extent 
that the Company's ultimate liability with respect to those programs varies 
from current estimates. 
 
RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTERS OF FISCAL 1995 AND 1994

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1995 were $53.7 million, an increase 
of $17.0 million, or 46% from the previous year.  The growth in revenues was 
due to increased demand across virtually all product classes.  New products 
also contributed to the increase.

Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 1995 was $3.9 million, an increase 
of $2.6 million, or 209% over the first quarter of fiscal 1994.  The increase 
was principally the result of the higher sales volume.

Gross profit, as a percent of net sales, increased to 24.2% in the first 
quarter of fiscal 1995 from 23.5% the previous year, primarily as a result of 
higher selling prices and cost reductions, which were partially offset by 
increased cost of material.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 
1995 increased 4.0% or $259,000 compared to the same period of fiscal 1994, but
decreased as a percent of sales to 12.6% from 17.8%.  The increase in spending 
is due to higher payroll and related costs.  These increases were offset, in 
part, by reduced legal costs.

The effective tax rate was 35.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 1995, compared 
to 37.1% in the fiscal 1994 first quarter.  The lower tax rate for the fiscal 
1995 period was due to a revision in the estimate of future taxes payable.


Ernst & Young LLP
Independent Auditors' Review Report



The Board of Directors
JLG Industries, Inc.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of JLG 
Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of October 31, 1994, and the related 
condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month 
periods ended October 31, 1994 and 1993.  These financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the 
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim 
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and 
accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted 
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will be 
performed for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion 
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not 
express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that 
should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements 
referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of JLG Industries, Inc. as of July 
31, 1994, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' 
equity and cash flows for the year then ended, not presented herein, and in our
report dated September 8, 1994, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those 
consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth 
in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 1994, 
is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated 
balance sheet from which it has been derived.
