4.6 handset control unIt
The handset control unit houses the platform
raise and lower controls.
Pressing the ‘UP’ button raises the platform.
Pressing the ‘DOWN’ button lowers the platform
To avoid crushing or shearing hazards, an
intermediate stop feature on lowering is fitted to
activate when the platform reaches a base of
work platform height from ground level of:
BoSS X3X – 1.87m
BoSS X3 – 1.85m
BoSS X2 – 1.4m
This is a safety
mechanism that
reminds the operator
to look around the
machine to determine
whether any persons
are adjacent to the machine. After a time delay
and when the operator is sure it is safe to do so,
the ‘DOWN’ button can be depressed a second
time to continue the descent.
4.7 eMergency stoP
An emergency stop button is provided on the
handset control unit. Once depressed this
isolates power to the raise and lower functions.
To restore functionality, twist the emergency
stop button key clockwise to release the button
as shown below.
There is also an
emergency stop button
on the base unit. Push
in to activate and twist
clockwise to release.
In the unlikely event of a power failure of the
BoSS X-Series machine the platform can be
lowered manually by use of the following
procedure.
1.Turn the finger screw on the pressure loss
valve anticlockwise until it will not turn any
further as shown in figure 1.
2.Then, turn the emergency valve on the base
unit anticlockwise until the platform begins
to desend, as shown in figure 2. If you need
to stop the desent simply turn this valve
clockwise again.
