MCNEILUS HIGHLIGHTS EXCLUSIVE EPTO TECHNOLOGY AND SUSTAINABILITY PARTNERSHIP
WITH SSAB FOSSIL-FREE STEEL


INDUSTRY LEADING REFUSE COLLECTION ELECTRIFICATION AND SUSTAINABILITY INNOVATION
IS ON DISPLAY IN THE MCNEILUS BOOTH (#2429) AT WASTE EXPO IN NEW ORLEANS.



New Orleans, La. (May 2, 2023) – McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc.  will
demonstrate its commitment to electrification and sustainability by spotlighting
its advanced electric power takeoff (ePTO) technology and its partnership with
fossil-free steel manufacturer SSAB   at Waste Expo 2023 in New Orleans.

McNeilus® ePTO technology provides a unique self-contained system that is
optimized and dedicated to powering refuse collection functions for consistent,
efficient performance – no matter the electric chassis brand. This exclusive
technology will be featured in booth #2429 on the McNeilus® Extra Compaction
Rear Loader.

“McNeilus, with our parent company Oshkosh Corporation, are unique in the level
of talent, technology, and experience that can be called upon to build
electrification solutions that are purpose built to optimize performance and
sustainability in refuse collection,” said Derek Wente, ePTO project engineer,
McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing. “We developed our ePTO technology with a laser
focus on delivering the high standards of performance, serviceability,
durability and manufacturability that customers have come to expect from
McNeilus.”  

McNeilus ePTO technology was designed with the operator and service technician
in mind. It provides numerous benefits including common component placement,
most notably the high-voltage disconnect, and consistent service parts across
product models allowing for simplified troubleshooting, diagnostics and
maintenance, and a safe environment for technicians. The common controls and
placement in the cab across product models provides operator assurance,
streamlined training and enhanced efficiency. The electric pump and motor
configuration eliminates noise pollution and provides quiet operation during
early morning routes in residential neighborhoods.

McNeilus ePTO refuse collection vehicles meet requirements for zero-emission
laws and enables customers to meet environmental and sustainability goals. The
ePTO Rear Loader on display at Waste Expo is made with SSAB Fossil-free steel,
making it the first vehicle to be manufactured with this zero carbon emission
steel as part of a partnership announced last September to provide sustainable
steel products for McNeilus refuse collection vehicle manufacturing.

“We are proud to be able to showcase results from our fossil-free steel
partnership with Oshkosh and McNeilus as we now present the McNeilus ePTO Rear
Loader at Waste Expo,” said Thomas Hörnfeldt, Head of Sustainable Business at
SSAB. “We see an increasing demand for steel without CO2-emissions from our
customers and look forward to continuing our journey to reduce carbon footprints
across the value chain.”

In addition to McNeilus ePTO technology, North America’s first fully-integrated,
zero-emission electric refuse collection vehicle (RCV), engineered and produced
by Oshkosh Corporation, will be showcased by McNeilus at Waste Expo.  The new
vehicle delivers on sustainability goals, meets or exceeds clean energy
mandates, qualifies for EV incentives, and completes a typical all-day refuse
collection route on a single charge.  Its 494 kWh battery comes with an 8-year
warranty and an expected life of 12 to 14 years. 

“At McNeilus and Oshkosh, we are unsurpassed in industry knowledge, resources
and commitment to push the boundaries of the market and give our customers what
they need,” said Jeremy Bernard, senior director of business development for
McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing. “McNeilus ePTO technology and the Oshkosh
integrated, electric refuse collection vehicle are built to drive performance
and sustainability in the refuse collection industry for years to come.”

OSHKOSH FULLY INTEGRATED ELECTRIC REFUSE COLLECTION VEHICLE MAKES ITS PUBLIC
DEBUT AT WASTE EXPO


ATTENDEES WILL SEE THE DRIVER-FIRST DESIGN, INTELLIGENT INTEGRATION AND OTHER
GAME-CHANGING BENEFITS IN MCNEILUS BOOTH #2429



New Orleans, La. (May 1, 2023) – McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing Inc., together
with parent company Oshkosh Corporation, are providing visitors to Waste Expo
2023 a live look at North America’s first fully integrated, zero-emission
electric refuse collection vehicle (eRCV). McNeilus booth #2429 will showcase
this purpose-built eRCV, incorporating technological advancements to deliver
game-changing advantages in driver comfort and safety, total cost of ownership
(TCO), performance and productivity, serviceability and sustainability.

This vehicle is built from the ground up by Oshkosh Corporation, developed with
technologies and design features that are protected by more than 50 patents and
patent applications. These eRCV innovations are the latest in a rapidly-growing
family of electric refuse technologies, which are collectively protected by more
than 100 patents and patent applications.

“Bringing together Oshkosh’s experience in severe duty vehicle innovation and
McNeilus expertise in refuse collection vehicle bodies, this new product
platform will provide the best driver, technician and owner experience,” said
Lee Dreas, vice president and general manager at McNeilus Truck and
Manufacturing. “Every aspect is unified, creating a vehicle that sets new
standards of excellence. We look forward to showcasing this at Waste Expo and
talking with customers about how it can take their business to the next level.” 

Features and components of the Oshkosh fully integrated zero-emission electric
refuse collection vehicle deliver numerous benefits across multiple categories.

Driver-first design  

The ergonomically designed pass-through cab incorporates a series of features
and components to optimize comfort and safety including a Direct Vision Standard
5-star rating for visibility, as well as a 360-degree camera and radar system to

and more for optimal operation.

Serviceability

Strategic placement of key serviceable components provides accessibility from
the ground with no climbing or lifting equipment required and allows convenient
daily checks and services. The Zero Radius lift arm’s rebuildable grabber
assembly also enables easy replacement of high-wear items for optimal service
life.

Sustainability

The purpose-built Oshkosh fully integrated zero-emission electric refuse

OSHKOSH CORPORATION CREATES NEW PRODUCT CATEGORY WITH NORTH AMERICA’S FIRST
FULLY INTEGRATED, ZERO-EMISSION ELECTRIC REFUSE COLLECTION VEHICLE


INNOVATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP SPUR CUTTING-EDGE, PURPOSE-BUILT
SOLUTION

OSHKOSH, Wis. (Feb. 21, 2023) – Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK), a leading
innovator of purpose-built vehicles and equipment, is pleased to announce that
it has engineered and produced North America’s first fully integrated, electric
refuse collection vehicle, creating a new category and bringing advanced
technology to the refuse industry.

Traditional refuse vehicles require the mounting of a refuse collection body to
a third-party chassis. The new Oshkosh integrated refuse collector has been
designed from the ground up to offer customers a single OEM electric vehicle
(EV) solution.

> “Entry into new product categories is a crucial element of our “Innovate.
> Serve. Advance.” growth strategy. With a deep heritage in the design and
> manufacture of purpose-built, heavy-duty trucks coupled with field proven
> refuse body technology, Oshkosh is uniquely positioned to develop this
> integrated vehicle. Our vast innovation capabilities are evident in every
> aspect of this first-of-its-kind product.”
> 
> John Pfeifer, president and chief executive officer of Oshkosh Corporation

Oshkosh leaned into its nearly 30-years of electrification expertise to bring
its latest vehicle to market. This electrified refuse collector features a
sophisticated drivetrain that includes advanced lithium-ion batteries and a
revolutionary electric-axle system. The vehicle will enable a full day’s refuse
collection on a single charge with zero emissions. It was designed to minimize
environmental impact and reduce noise in communities around the world, while
helping customers meet their sustainability initiatives. 

“When Oshkosh engineers began this project, they put both the customer and user
experiences at the center of our design,” said Pfeifer. “For the buyer, chassis
selection and integration are eliminated. For the driver, active safety systems,
performance technologies and ergonomic features deliver best in class safety,
comfort and productivity.  And for the technician, intelligent, connected
systems reduce routine service and enable condition-based maintenance.”

Manufacturing of Oshkosh’s integrated, electric refuse collection vehicle will
leverage several Oshkosh facilities, including a new, state-of-the-art plant in
Murfreesboro, Tenn. Product prototype testing on designated routes will be
completed in 2023, with customer deliveries starting in 2024.

Dodge Center, Minn. (Dec. 5, 2022) – McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc., an

Award for exemplary support for team members during military service. The award

operations. Customer Support Manager Eric Berenstein accepted the award on the
company’s behalf. 

“At McNeilus, we have a people first culture where we care for our team members
as well as their families. We’re proud to have many veterans and reservists as
part of our workforce who bring unique perspective and skills to our team which
enable us to provide great support to our customers. We salute their service to
our nation and are honored to support them while they are on military leave,”
said Jim McReynolds, Vice President and General Manager of McNeilus Customer
Support Solutions. “We could not be more honored to have received this award at
our Minnesota and Ohio locations.”

McNeilus has an active military employee business resource group that hosts
events, provides mentorship and an opportunity to connect with service members
across the company. The mission of this group is to recruit, rally and recognize
current and former service members across the organization and is an important
way that the company supports military team members.

> “I’ve been with the organization for more than 16 years and I’ve been enlisted
> that whole time. Through my journey I’ve gone through three deployments, each
> around 15 months, which has been very impactful personally and
> professionally,” said Kolt Krumpos, Sgt. 1st Class and Warehouse Manager at
> McNeilus. “I’ve been fortunate that my leaders and peers at McNeilus have gone
> out of their way to check in with my spouse and kids, and even sent myself and
> my family care packages while I was gone. I’m proud to work at McNeilus and
> cannot thank them enough for the comfort they provided to me and my family
> while I was deployed.”

As part of the Oshkosh Corporation portfolio, McNeilus partners with the U.S.

program matches transitioning service members with civilian opportunities and
mentors in their final 180 days of active duty, working Monday through Thursday
with their corporate employer to gain professional training and hands-on
experience that prepares them to join the civilian workforce. Oshkosh

SSAB PARTNERS WITH MCNEILUS, OSHKOSH TO BUILD FIRST COMMERCIAL VEHICLES IN U.S.
WITH FOSSIL-FREE STEEL


MCNEILUS REFUSE COLLECTION VEHICLES CHOSEN FOR FIRST PROTOTYPES IN MANUFACTURING
ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE SEVERE-DUTY VEHICLES.



Dodge Center, Minn. (Sept. 20, 2022) –  McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc,
an Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE:OSK) company, is excited to announce a partnership
with SSAB in fossil-free steel applications for severe-duty commercial vehicles.
SSAB initiated this partnership with Oshkosh Corporation because of its
reputation as a leading innovator of mission-critical vehicles and essential
equipment, including McNeilus’ market-leading refuse collection vehicles.

The first use of this fossil-free steel will be to prototype advanced,
environmentally sustainable McNeilus® refuse collection vehicles. Oshkosh
Corporation and McNeilus are working together on future research and development
initiatives across multiple commercial vehicle product lines.

> “Creating a more sustainable future is central to our strategic vision,” said
> Brad Nelson, President of McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing and Senior Vice
> President of Oshkosh Corporation. “As a leader and innovator in the industries
> we serve, Oshkosh Corporation and McNeilus are proud to partner with SSAB on
> this global initiative as a next step in delivering high-performance,
> sustainable products to our customers.”

“We are very happy to welcome Oshkosh Corporation and McNeilus into our partner
group to be the first in the United States to prototype fossil-free steel in
commercial and industrial vehicles,” says Martin Lindqvist, President and CEO at
SSAB. “Demand for fossil-free steel continues to increase globally. This step
confirms our commitments to mitigate global climate change, and collaboration
with forward-thinking organizations around the world for industry-leading change
is how it will happen.”

SSAB aims to deliver fossil-free steel to the market in commercial scale during
2026 and delivered the first steel made of hydrogen-reduced iron in 2021. SSAB
works with iron ore producer LKAB and energy company Vattenfall in Sweden as
part of the HYBRIT initiative to develop a value chain for fossil-free iron- and
steel production, replacing coking coal traditionally needed for iron ore-based
steelmaking, with fossil-free electricity and hydrogen. This process virtually
eliminates carbon dioxide-emissions in steel production.

Sustainability efforts across McNeilus and Oshkosh Corporation include working
to reduce the “use-phase” emissions of products through fuel efficiency,
alternative fuels and electrification to help customers significantly reduce
their carbon footprint and move industries forward. ”

customers the parts they need – no matter the makes or models in their fleets.

Street Smart Parts™ and McNeilus® Genuine Parts both offer quality parts,
vehicle lifetime support, and 24/7/365 online ordering. The Street Smart Parts
brand provides aftermarket replacement parts designed specifically to fit all
makes and models of refuse collection vehicles. McNeilus Genuine Parts provides
replacement parts for McNeilus-manufactured trucks.

Among McNeilus’ top priorities is ensuring it keeps customer fleets up and
running. Both of these parts brands deliver on that goal, especially at a
critical time when supply chain issues can mean that customers may seek to
repair, rather than replace, their vehicles.

What McNeilus offers in parts, products and technology elevates the standard
across the industry, but what sets the company apart is its
direct-from-manufacturer customer support. From mobile techs to parts
specialists across North America and a best-in-class customer service and
support team, McNeilus provides the solutions customers need from dedicated
industry experts.

“Our customers need a partner that can help them keep their business running –
without the runaround – and they have that in McNeilus,” said Matt McLeish, Vice
President of Sales and Marketing-McNeilus Refuse Collection Vehicles. “These two
parts brands, along with the technology innovations and product enhancements on
display at the show, are just a few examples of the solutions McNeilus provides
to help keep customer operations moving forward.”
