Wheelchair Lifts
Blue Bird buses may be fitted with lifting platforms designed to aid in loading and unloading passengers. There are two optional
wheelchair lifts available. The units available are the Ricon™ and the Braun™. Both offer a maximum of 48 inches (122 cm) lift from the
ground to the level of the bus floor. For the correct operation and maintenance of the wheelchair lift on your bus, please refer to the
operator’s manual supplied by the OEM.

WARNING!
WARNING!
Operators should familiarize themselves with the lift manufacturer’s operator’s manual prior to
loading passengers on the lift. All lifts have maximum weight limits that should never be exceeded.
These lifts are operated by an independent, electro-hydraulic power system and are controlled by the operator from outside the bus.
There is a master switch located in the driver’s area that must be activated as well.
The bus electrical system powers a hydraulic pump, internal to the lift, which moves the lift up. The “down” function is gravity
type and is controlled by pressure relief valves. Manual operation of the “down” function requires that the operator manually control
the pressure relief valves. To provide for the manual “up” function, the lift is fitted with a hand operated hydraulic jack, located on the
right-hand (from inside the bus) side of the lift assembly.
A buzzer sounds when the door is unlatched or partially opened. The buzzer stops if the door is completely open.
