Try the following in your JApplet:
    public void init()
    {
        JComponent yourLargeComponent = ....;
        JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane();
        scrollPane.getViewport().add(largeComponent);
        this.getContentPane().add(scrollPane);
    }
Note that you must not add directly to the
JScrollPane/JApplet but to their viewport/contentpane.
