MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE PERSONNEL WHO DO NOT FEEL CONFIDENT ABOUT WORKING ON HEIGHTS SHOULD ABSTAIN FROM DOING SO. SINCE A LARGE OBJECT MUST BE HANDLED, THE TECHNICIAN EXECUTING THE CONVERSION SHOULD BE ASSISTED BY A SECOND PERSON. PERSONNEL PERFORMING THE JOB DESCRIBED MUST USE SAFETY LADDERS, A SCAFFOLD OR A SCISSOR LIFT. WHEN OPERATING ON THE ROOF OF THE COACH, WEAR A SAFETY HARNESS AND WIRE.
NOTE Protect the surface surrounding the rooftop unit against scratches, nicks and dents. When using safety ladders, wrap posts leaning against the vehicle with soft material to avoid damaging the paintwork.
1. Put coach on a level surface with parking brake "ON" and contact "OFF". 2. Working on the roof of the vehicle, undo the 10 twistlocks securing the cover plate of the rearward compartment of the AC35 rooftop unit (see figure 1). To unlock, push the twistlock down with a large screwdriver and turn 1/4 turn counter clockwise. Remove the twistlocks except for the two on the centerline, which cannot be removed. Store twist locks away for further use. 3. With the aid of an assistant, lift off the cover and put it upside down on a flat, soft surface (e.g. cardboard) where it cannot be damaged.
