Records retrieval

Leeds City Council has chosen a Youngman BoSS X3XSP self-propelled micro access platform for use at its new Corporate Records Management Facility, which has the capacity to house 30,500 document boxes on a 6- high racking system.

To place and retrieve the boxes from the top three levels safely and efficiently, the Council chose the Youngman scissor lift due to its ultra compact dimensions and ability to easily lift an operator plus four boxes, each weighing up to 12kg, helped by the use of a 0.4m long platform extension.

Supplied by Access Platforms Sales of Huntingdon, the BoSS X3X-SP has a safe working load of 150kg and an overall width of just 0.76m, making it easy to be driven and precisely manoeuvred by the operator even at its full working height of 5.14m.
