General Maintenance Schedules
The following charts list maintenance procedures which should be performed by
qualified service technicians with regularity to maintain the Blue Bird Micro.
These checklists do not replace or supersede local or state required driver inspection
procedure, nor do they necessarily address issues pertaining to the chassis. For chas-
sis-related maintenance information, see the manual supplied by your chassis manu-
facturer.
About Service Intervals
The charts show recommended minimum service intervals. More frequent service
intervals should be considered if the vehicle is operated in extreme conditions such
as high humidity and/or dusty environments.Time intervals are shown in terms of
months or mileage. The correct interval will be whichever is the first to occur.
Some components should be regularly inspected, but do not lend themselves to
universal intervals, because their normal service life is highly dependent upon local
conditions. For these components, any estimated interval would result in overser-
vicing in some locales and underservicing in others. Such intervals are left to the
judgement of the local technican, and the service interval indicated is
As Required. It
is important to understand that this designation should not be taken as an optional
inspection. Every item in the following tables should be considered mandatory, and
an As Required interval should be viewed as emphasizing the importance of the lo-
cal service operation first determining, and then strictly adhering to, an appropriate
interval. Regardless of the interval determined appropriate, the operation must not
be overlooked.
Vendor-Supplied Maintenance Guidelines
The technician should bear in mind that many of the components which are installed
on the bus by Blue Bird, are neither manufactured nor serviced by Blue Bird. Service
and Maintenance information more detailed than that presented in this manual may
be available from the component manufacturer.
