5. Adjust the elliptical crossview mirrors
by positioning each mirror head so that
the “arrow” embossed in the top of the
elliptical mirror housing is pointed di-
rectly at the eyes of the seated driver.
6. A final adjustment should be made to
the mirror system so that the seated
driver can view the areas required by
FMVSS III, including the entire top sur-
face of cylinders M and N when located
as illustrated and rearward a minimum
of 200 feet (measured from the mirror
surface) using the outside rearview
driving mirrors. The elliptical
crossview mirrors should be adjusted to
provide the seated driver a view of the
entire surface of any cylinder A thru P
(when located as illustrated) not visible
by direct view of the driver. The view
provided by the elliptical crossview
mirrors must overlap the view provided
by the outside rearview driving mirror
system.
Maintenance:
All mirrors should be cleaned
weekly or more often if conditions warrant.
Cleaning should be done with an ammonia so-
lution to insure that mirrors are not obstructed.
Be sure that mounting fasteners are kept tight
so that mirrors will not vibrate. Check weekly
and retighten, if necessary.
EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT
FIRST AID KIT
The first aid kit is mounted in the front of the
bus body just above the right windshield. The
contents of the kit should be inspected weekly or
as required by local regulation to be sure that all
contents comply with state specifications.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
The fire extinguisher is normally located on the right-hand sidewall between the grabrail and barrier.
Your unit may be equipped with either a 2 3/4, 4 1/2, 5 or 6 pound extinguisher. Inspect the pressure gauge
every 30 days or as required by individual state fire laws to insure that the unit is fully charged. Inspect
mounting fastener periodically to be sure they are tight.
