4.1 DAIly checks
It is essential to carry out daily checks on the
BoSS X3X-SP to ensure its safe condition of use
including the following as a minimum:
• Hydraulic oil leaks by visual inspection of the
floor around the base unit, by feeling
underneath the drawer which houses the
power pack and by examination of the ram and
pressure loss valve and sensor
• Loose electrical fittings and sensors by visual
inspection
• Chafed hydraulic hose or electrical cables by
visual inspection
• Condition of drive wheel and swivel castor tyres
and wheels by visual inspection
• Structure – guardrails, platform, scissors and
chassis (eg damage, cracks, corrosion,
abrasions, welds, connections)
• Visual inspection of the tab locking nuts and
washers on the scissor assembly
• Obscured, dirty or damaged instruction
labelling and plates
• Emergency stop function activated on the
handset controller
• Emergency stop function activated on the base
unit
• Emergency lowering of platform – both backup
power and manual systems (see page 23)
• Raise and lower functions including descent
delay and deployment of pothole protection
bars at each side of the base unit (the raise
and lower functions can be tested by
unclipping and removing the handset controller
from its holder on the work platform and using
the controls whilst at ground level)
• With the base unit key selector in the platform
position try to push the machine to ensure drive
wheel brakes are engaged
• Switch on power and:
- Ensure that the horn sounds to confirm
operation
- Check that the battery is fully charged using
either the battery level indicator on the front
of the handset controller or by checking the
base unit LCD display
If the above pre-use checks reveal malfunctions
or damage on the machine, then it must not be
used until the problem is rectified. If in doubt seek
further assistance by contacting Youngman.
If instruction labels or plates are no longer legible
or missing contact Youngman for replacements.
