CAB CUSTOM STYLE
The cab shall be a custom, cab overengine style, with the driver and officer positions ahead of
the engine and front axle. The cab shall be specifically designed and manufactured for thefire
service industry.
The cab shall be designed by manufacturer’s Engineering to meet the unique, Heavy-duty
construction specifications. The rawcab will be fabricated to meet the exacting demand of the
fire industry and shall bemanufactured by acompany with no less than 50 years ofexperience in
building custom cabs. All aspects of the cab will be quality checked by manufacturer’s
personnel. All caband chassis customization and assembly will take place on the manufacturers
premises.
The cab shall be of a totally enclosed full tilt design, with the interior areacompletely open to
improve visibility and verbal communication between the occupants. The cab shall be capable
of tilting 45-degrees, allowing the chassis engine to be removed, ifrequired, without tiltingthe
cab beyond 45-degrees.No Exceptions.
The cab shall include a four (4)-point rubber isolated cab pivot and mounting system. The rear
histic mounts shall be isolated from the chassis frame to reduce the transferof road vibrations
and frame torque into the cab, while providing superior handling characteristics. No solid
mounted rear lock downs shall be acceptable. NoExceptions.
The front cab pivot assemblies shall be 1/2" A36 steel plate with a .31" thick 2-1/2" diameter
tube cross member mechanically attached to the cab and frame. There shall be two (2)
greaseable rubber isolated engineered bushings to reduce the transfer ofroad vibrations into the
cab.

consistent material composition. The stamping process alleviates the high tendency offractures
through the fusing of dissimilar metal composition as appears with a casting process.
Cast cab components, including cab corners, "A" pillars and front fascia components shall not be
acceptable due to the high tendency offractures.No Exceptions.
Additional cab strength shall be obtained throughclosed section, dual extrusions in the
construction of the "D" pillars.
The front façade shall beconstructed with dual wall .19” thick 5052-H32 Aluminum plates

FRAME
The chassis frame shall consist of two (2) “C” style parallelrails, constructed of high strength
low alloy and shall feature the following:
·A Stenx MODEL 110XF 10.19”high by3.63”deep coldrolledsteelframe orequivalent.
·.38” thick flange
·Inner channel measuring9.31" high x 3.25" deep x .25" thick
·The 10.19” frame heightshall be maintained throughout the entire length of the frame toallow
for maximum storage capacity for theentire apparatus.
·If frame rails that are larger than those specifiedare to be utilized, the maximum height of each
framerail shall not exceed 10.25” at any point on the frame rail. This will ensure the lowest
possible vehicle center of gravity allowing maximum stability as well as providing the lowest
body height possible.
·Framerail shall haveaconsistent frame web throughout the entire length.
·The entire framerail design shall be manufactured in the United States of America andreadily
available on the aftermarket.
·Grade 8 Structural fasteners, Huck bolts shall not be acceptable.No Exception.
·The hardware used for the chassis shall be are to be corrosion resistant. The process shall be dip-
spin-bake coated with two coats of zinc/aluminum metal flake coating in an inorganic binder.
Coating one is to be zincflake andcoating two is to be aluminum flake. The zinc flakes
sacrificially corrode to protect the base metal. Thealuminum flakes prolong the life of the zinc.
Salt fog test life, based on ASTM B117 on unassembled fasteners, is 1000hours to red rust. The
same test on assembled fasteners is 750 hours to red rust. The two step coating is RoHS
compliant as it eliminates the hexavalentchromium used in the passivation of electroplated zinc
coatings to create yellowzinc (zinc dichromate).The elimination of the zinc plating also greatly
reduces the likelihood that hydrogen embrittlement will occur. Hydrogenembrittlement is a side
effect of electroplating that reduces toughness andcan lead to fracture. NoException

One (1)FinancialStability Response
00-12-1100
FINANCIAL STABILITY SPECIFICATIONS
With high-profile instances of fireapparatus manufacturers encountering financial difficulties, it
is imperative that fire departments be diligent in evaluating the financial position of the
companies they solicit to build on their emergency response vehicles. A contract entered into
with a company on shaky ground is a dangerous prospect, since conducting business with a
manufacturer in suchcondition could open the department to monumental problems.
Take, for instance, the growing theme of manufacturersrequiringas opposed to offering pre-
payment and progressive payment options with a corresponding discount off the price of a
vehicle. Such offersaremade with an ulterior motive in mind, as it can be generally inferred that
manufacturersrequiringpre-payments and progressive payments do so because they need your
cashtoday to fund production of other vehicles already in the backlog.
Should problems arise, as has been thecase in situations too numerous to mention, your
department risks losing any down payments already made or even the entire cost of a piece of
equipment should certain pre-pay discount situations go awry.
While pre-payment discounts may be enticing, it is important to know justhow stable the
manufacturer seeking your funds is before you make that commitment. Ifyou enter into one of
these agreements and the manufacturer hits a rough patch, it is you that will be hurting, because
your funds may not be recoverable. However, if you enter into a contractwith a financially
sound manufacturer, youwill reap all of the benefits of a well-built truck ata lower cost. You
may equally, by taking advantage of the time-value of money, beable to afford more truck than
initially thought, because funds saved by leveraging pre-payment options could allow you get
some added features that you might not necessarily have been able to afford.
With this in mind, it must be noted that Rosenbauer is a companywith rock-solid financial
stability. This is a statement not made lightly, as we can prove it to you. We can provide
language that you can insert into your bid specifications that stipulates that in order for bids to be
accepted by a fire department, the company bidding must meet several fiscal criteria.
The first criteria call for the successful bidder to meet a debt-to-equity rationot exceedinga 2.0
rating. Rosenbauer presently stands at a 1.51 rating, which is well-below the acceptedrating.
This low number results from Rosenbauer owning more assets with a marginal debt service.
This means we are not using lenders to fund our operations, nor our growth.
The second requirement is that the debt coverageratio of the successful body builder exceeds a
100 rating. The higher the number, the better ablea company is to meet its payment obligations
with banks and creditors. Rosenbauer’s number isat 279.6, which is nearlythree times the
10040-001909/02/20
4
PDF created with pdfFactory Pro trial version www.pdffactory.com
South Bend Fire Department
requiredamount. The higher the debt coverageratio, the easily and more fluidly a company is
positioned to pay its monthly obligations and operating costs.
The third criteriarequirethat the equity ratio of the successful bidder must exceed .30 rating. A
higher equity ratio indicates that the body builderhas increased flexibility to meet its financial
obligations which translates into greaterfinancialstability. Rosenbauer currently has an equity
ratio of .387 which is well above the acceptedrating and an excellent indicator of financial
strength.
When exploring andevaluating various manufacturers to consider for building your apparatus,
there is little doubt you will find one that stands on as firmly a financialground as Rosenbauer.
While others are experiencing stressful issues that raise doubts as to the company’s long-term
viability, Rosenbauer continues to demonstrate astrengthening of its financial position in the
apparatus manufacturing industry. Because Rosenbauer meets and exceedsall the above-stated
financial bid requirements, we are best positioned to ensure customers of astrong relationship
with the company, which cannot be claimed by most of our competitors in this volatile market.
