Corded 15ft Pendant Controller for Boat Lift Boss Direct Drive Motor
Description
15-Foot Corded Boat Lift Remote Control & Pendant Controller
Add convenient wired lift remote control to your compatible Boat Lift Boss system with the Extreme Max 3005.7284 Corded 15ft Pendant Controller.
Designed as an optional accessory for select Boat Lift Boss Key-Turn Direct Drive Motors and Integrated Winch Drive Systems, this 15-foot corded pendant control provides an additional operating position within reach of the attached cable.
Instead of operating your boat lift only from the motor's built-in key-turn control, the pendant allows you to operate a compatible system from a separate dockside position while maintaining clear visibility of the boat and lifting equipment.
The 15-foot cord adds flexibility when choosing a suitable operating location, while the pendant's IP65-rated enclosure offers protection against dust and water jets under the rating's specified test conditions.
This corded boat lift remote control accessory is compatible with six specific Boat Lift Boss models, including select 12/24V and 120V direct-drive motors and 5,000 lb and 7,500 lb integrated winch systems.
Important: Your Boat Lift Boss must be one of the compatible Key-Turn models and have the pre-installed accessory pigtail adapter required for the pendant connection.

1. Confirm Your Motor

2. Check the Pigtail Adapter
