UK rental company Lakeside Hire has acquired WernerCo’s all new 11ft BoSS PA-lift push around scissor lift, to replace the company’s BoSS X3 and BoSS X3X models.

Why use a scissor lift?

Using ladders or scaffolds can be dangerous. Contractors have been dealing with a serious uptake in fall injuries and stray debris accidents. The construction industry is always tough, but these problems are costly when it comes to dealing with insurance companies.

The scissor lift can help you avoid these issues by providing a safe, steady enclosure and a rising platform, this helps you do your work safely and efficiently.

Scissor lifts are commonly used for indoor and outdoor construction work. Their height gives you an excellent working range without having to use scaffolding or build a mast climb structure which means there is less time spent on site

Which kind of scissor lift do I need?

Here are the main things to consider when choosing a scissor lift.

Weight capacity

Each scissor lift has specific weight limitations. Some are more powerful than others. Larger tasks call for stronger scissor lifts. So, ask yourself how heavy are the items you need to lift? The BoSS PA-Lift has an incredible load capacity of 250kg making it suitable for most tasks.


Size

Getting the job done in a smaller space means getting in and out of tight spots and manoeuvring through crowded areas. The BoSS PA-lift’s compact dimensions are perfect for these types of jobs. And it fits through any standard door or into a passenger elevator too!

Height capacity

When you’re looking for a scissor lift, it’s important to consider the height of the model required according to the work that needs to be done. Some scissor lifts can reach greater heights than others. The BoSS PA-lift has a platform height of 3.4m and an impressive safe working height of 5.4m.
