BoSS X-Series  

Instructions for Use 

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.  

BoSS X-Series machines are fitted with an 
overload sensor system. If  the platform load 
is exceeded the platform will not raise and the 
red LED indicator on top of  the handset will 
illuminate.

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
