We count on being counted on

BOSTA 70 is a 70 cm wide load
class 3 working and protective
scaffold, complying with DIN EN
12811, for a maximum permitted
platform load of 200 kg/m2. The
standard version of BOSTA 70
has a general building law approval. Easy handling ensures
fast, uncomplicated and fail-safe
assembly. This saves not only
a vast amount of time but also
cash.

Fits anywhere
Practice-proven measurements
make BOSTA 70 versatile and
flexible. Bay lengths of 0.74 to
4.00 m, possible widths of 0.70
to 1.70 m and storey heights of
0.66 to 2.00 m are sizes that will
fit virtually anywhere.

Scaffolding you cant outgrow

Fitted with approved accessories, its talents grow and are
redefined as time goes on,
scaffolding that keeps pace with
your tasks. In the long run, a
safe and rewarding investment.

Wonderful at wandering
Should you be short of scaffolding material, just remove the
end bays on one side and
replace them on the other. No
more practical to save money!

Inner and outer values

make it a winner
Fully galvanized steel parts.
Wooden parts impregnated to
protect them from rot. Madeto-measure, rugged parts, all of
them quality inspected. Which is
why BOSTA 70 is so durable.

Its greatest assets at a glance

Straightforward, fail-safe,
one-man assembly.
l Vast versatility thanks to
system parts in various
lengths, heights and widths.
l Bay-by-bay dismantling and
re-assembly (wandering).
l With only a few extra parts,
BOSTA 70 can be turned into
a mobile scaffold, scaffold
brackets, stairways or supporting structures for shelters.

Surefooted and stable

Practical adjustment posts
These may be used to adapt to
larger steps or slopes. Height
adjustable from 30 to 130 cm.
Whats more, all these three
possibilities may be mutually
combined, enabling BOSTA 70
to adapt millimeter precise to
any ground conditions.

Safety first
The planks

To make BOSTA 70 as flexible

as possible, we have provided
a variety of planks. From
wood via steel to aluminum
all BOSTA 70 planks are
unbeatable in terms of ruggedness and safety: the steel
parts are hot-dip galvanized,
the timber planks effectively
protected against rot.
These planks are surfaces on
which you can walk and work
and, at the same time, they are
self-bracing structural elements.
Fitted with sturdy and robust
bearing claws that simplify
assembly. Moreover, all of them
can be used as upper planking
in protective and roof protective
scaffolding.

Another advantage:
The stages and frames are
made of aluminum, which is
50 percent lighter for easier
handling and loading, transport,
erection and disassembly.

Handles easily
Erection, disassembly, modification

Just a few parts, easily identifiable and systematically

practical, you simply cant
make any mistakes. This is
what makes BOSTA 70 such
a best-seller. Erect, dismantle
or modify, all in a few easy
steps. Doable by just one
man, no tools. The details are
ingenious:

The gravity flip

The vertical frames have inside
forked bolts with gravity flips to
fasten diagonals, guard rails
and toe boards. These selfsecuring fixed points are very
practical and hard-wearing.
Inside no time at all, they lock
firmly into place and guarantee
absolute safety. Because they
are placed on the inside, they
make assembly and transportation easy.

Straightened out automatically

Once the first bay is assembled,
consisting of base jacks, two
V-frames, guard rails and diagonals, everything follows automatically. No need for additional
components. The base level is
braced by nothing but the horizontal guard rails.

Wandering
If you are unable to commission large quantities of BOSTA 70 for major projects, simply let
the scaffold do the wandering: bay and storeywise, BOSTA 70 can simply be disassembled
on one side and re-assembled on the other.
The planks bearing claws are rounded off for
simple removal. So, you can work along the
building in sections.

4. Clink the top end of the

diagonal into place by inserting
the hook into the inside hole
of the vertical frames U-section.
Just one diagonal for five
scaffold bays!

5. Place the lower end of the

diagonal and the toe board over
the gravity flips.
6. Position the frame panel as
a work plank and horizontal
bracing. Repeat, over and over
again.

1. The bottom-most scaffold

bay is perfectly aligned simply
by turning the jack nut. The
diagonal fits exactly over the
lower gravity flip and braces the
scaffold bay. After this, all
further storeys are automatically
straightened out.

2. Insert the vertical frames,

without screws or bolts or drop
plugs. Tubular insertions,
15 cm long, maintain maximum
stability.
3. Just slide the guard rail at
back- and knee-level over the
self-securing gravity flips.
It couldnt be easier.

7. Complete the three-part side

protection at all levels. Guard
rails, toe boards, transverse
double railing 70 as well as
transverse double post 70 are
installed at the top level.
8. Regulation tying by means of
the scaffold retainers with
couplers. It grips into an eyebolt
which is doweled into the wall.

Ready to reach out

The brackets

Projections, recesses, oriels or inclined

runs, many buildings demand a scaffold
with high adaptability. With the four
enlargement brackets from the BOSTA 70
program, you are ideally geared for the
most complex of challenges. Whether it
is a simple extension of working width
you require or a system displacement,
dimensions of 35, 70 or 100 cm make it
all possible. Without any special static
elements. Whats more, these same
brackets can also be used for the bigger
brother, BOSTA 100!

1. The enlargement bracket 35

extends the working deck to 1.10 m.
2. The enlargement bracket 70
allows you to reach out and thus achieve a
70 cm broader working surface.
3. The enlargement bracket 100
is fastened at the top and bottom with half
couplers. Overall working width 1.70 m.
10

Irrespective of the
scaffold configuration,
the brackets allow the
system to be adapted
to any faade projections. These are
steplessly height adjustable and secured
to the scaffold decks.

Top-flight when it comes to safety

The stairways

The double-flight scaffold stairway

This is made up of two BOSTA 70 scaffold
bays built in front of each other in which
stair flyers and hand rails are assembled
alternately. Maximum height: 64.50 m.
The BOSTA 70 range comes with all the
parts enabling you to assemble the up
and down stairways in no time at all.
Depending on your space requirements,
opt for the inner-lying ladder passage,
the single-flight or the double-flight scaffold stairway.

The single-flight scaffold stairway

A 2.50 meter long bay with flight of stairs
and handrails is built in front of the scaffold
in addition. The stairs are 65 cm wide, the
maximum overall height is 64.50 m. These
safetycertified stairways can also be erected in front of other scaffolds such as the
BOSTA 100 and MODEX.
The inner-lying ladder passage
Integrates into your BOSTA 70 scaffold and
consists simply of the ladder passage
frames and loose ladder or the aluminum
ladder passage.

You name it, we have it

The options

Whatever else you may need, youll find it in the

BOSTA 70 range of accessories! Tested and approved parts allowing simple solutions and saving
work, time and your money. And, as far as safety is
concerned, no savings have been made.

4.00 m system bridge

The 4 m long and 32 cm wide steel or aluminum plank can be used as an adjustment
bay, connecting element, and bridge.
Plenty of flexibility from a single part.
The system bridging girders5.00 and
7.50 m
Oriels and driveways are easily overcome
with just a few parts. Even large-surface
coverings and/or working areas can be
constructed.
The system-free lattice girders in steel or
aluminum
For spanning and bracing wherever scaffolds have to be partly suspended. As
these girders are system-free, they can be
12

attached anywhere independently of any

bay length. Available in 3.10 m to 7.60 m, in
aluminum up to 8.10 m.
The passage frame
Provides a safe passage way for pedestrians on pavements. Available in widths
of 1.00 m or 1.50 m. The guard rails and
diagonals are fastened to the outside by
means of gravity flips, thus preventing the
possibility of injuries.
Hint: The passage frame 100 can also be
used as an interchangeable frame, meaning
that the BOSTA 70 can be erected on top
of BOSTA 100.

Protection grates for roof tilers

Safety by the rules! The safety grates are
easily mounted and protect men and
material from falling down. They are also a
substitute for the three-part guard system.
Select the BOSTA 70 plank you preferall
of them are approved and will absorb
dynamic loads.

The mobile scaffold

It takes only a few extras to turn the
BOSTA 70 into a mobile scaffold. With a
standing height of 10.50 m indoors and
up to 8.50 m outdoors.

The shelter bracket

Crossbar and strut connect with hinges
and are fastened to the vertical frame. With
cantileverages of 1.00 and 1.80 m, they
serve as a protection against falling objects.
