Section 8: Generator
Make sure that all electrical parts are serviced only by a certified electrician or
qualified personnel. Dangerous voltages are present which could result in
injury or death.
Always make sure that eyes are protected while servicing the unit. Wear safety
goggles when prying, drilling, grinding, or working with batteries. Wear safety
goggles over regular prescription glasses unless the lenses are made of
hardened glass and can serve as safety goggles.
Be certain to disconnect the power before working on any of the electrical
systems.
Before connecting or disconnecting from shore power, it is imperative that the
shore power connections be moved to the “OFF” position. Failure to do this
can result in injury or death to the operator of the mobile unit.
It is the operator’s responsibility to verify that the shore power receptacle is of
the same type and voltage as the connection that is supplied by Oshkosh
Specialty Vehicles. Failure to do this can result in injury or death to the
operator of the mobile unit as well as irreparable damage to the mobile unit.
When switching from generator power to shore power the red “480V AC
FAULT” may illuminate and flicker. If the red “480V AC FAULT” stays
illuminated, reconnect to generator power and call a certified electrician before
attempting to reconnect to shore power.
When turning the power selector switch from one position to another, the
selector must be paused for a minimum of five seconds between selections.
Failure to do so can result in damage to the equipment.
Always inspect the power cable, connectors, and fasteners prior to usage. If
during inspection, it is suspected that either internal or external damage has
occurred, have a certified electrician inspect and repair the damage before
using.
The medical system requires the HVAC system to be supplied power at all
times. Generator power is used while the mobile unit is being transported, and
shore power can be used while the mobile unit is in the parked position.
When servicing the unit be certain that a first aid kit and fire extinguisher are
within reach at all times.
The mobile unit is equipped with a generator that is mounted on the front of the unit in its own
housing compartment. The generator supplies power to the unit during transport. Unless the full
support generator has been selected, the generator cannot be used for performing medical
procedures aboard the mobile unit. The power selector switch is located on the power supply
control panel. The control panel can be found in the interior of the mobile unit inside of a cabinet.
If the full support generator has been selected, then the generator will also be able to power the
medical system so the medical procedures can take place when shore power is unavailable.
