BoSS X-Series Push-Around Micro Powered Access Platforms X2, X3, and X3X - manufactured before November 2012 need safety upgrade kit

IMPORTANT: BoSS X-Series Push-Around Micro Powered Access Platforms X2, X3, and X3X - manufactured before November 2012.

In 2013 Youngman Group became aware of a single and isolated incident where a BoSS X3 Micro Powered Access Platform continued to operate after the user released the platform raise button on the hand-held controller. Following this incident they put in place a communications campaign with a remedial plan to check and upgrade all affected machines.

The solenoid valve upgrade kits, together with fitting instructions were sent to all who had purchased machines manufactured before November 2012 who responded to the communication.

On 27th October this year, they were notified of a second incident affecting one of the machines within this same batch of serial numbers, which unfortunately was not upgraded.  Any companies who purchased machines within this period are again being asked to re-check that all machines were upgraded as per the initial request.

Serial numbers X2 YMG 21000 to YMG 21228

Serial numbers X3 YMG 11001 to YMG 11918

Serial numbers X3X YMG 31001 to YMG 31238

Serial numbers X3X YMG 32001 to YMG 32158
