Foreword
This Operator’s Manual provides some general and specific information regarding
safe operation and maintenance of your Blue Bird bus. It does not address all items
or situations that may arise, and it is not a substitute for proper driver and mechanic
training. Exercise of care, common sense, good driving and working practices are
required for safe operation.
If this manual does not adequately address your specific questions or con-
cerns, please contact your Blue Bird distributor. The distributor will answer
your questions or put you in contact with the proper factory personnel.
Throughout this manual are precautions labeled Warnings and Cautions, and set in
the style shown here:
[WARNING] The Warning designation is generally used for precautions
which, if not properly observed while performing the related procedures or
handling materials, could result in serious personal injury or death.
[CAUTION] The Caution designation is generally used for precautions which,
if not properly observed while performing the related procedures or handling
materials, could result in damage to the bus or its equipment.
Blue Bird Corporation offers standard and optional equipment to meet fed-
eral, state, and local specifications and individual customer requirements.
Properly selected equipment can help ensure reliable and safe transportation
of passengers.
Examples of this safety equipment include: stop arms, crossing guards,
warning lights, warning light monitors, mirrors, first aid kits, fire extinguish-
ers, warning reflectors, flares, directional and brake lights, warning buzzers,
security locks, emergency exits, and seat belts.
It is the driver’s responsibility to ensure that the safety items are in proper or-
der. Equipment relating to safety should be checked for operation on a daily
basis. Safety equipment may vary due to federal and state specifications, and
individual customer requirements. In addition, the driver/operator must en-
sure that the loading area around the bus is clear of pedestrians before stop-
ping, and that all unloaded passengers are a safe distance away from the bus
before moving.
You should also have received an operator’s manual from the chassis manu-
facturer with your vehicle. If you failed to receive such a manual, contact the
chassis manufacturer’s closest dealership immediately to obtain one.
Please
read this manual and the chassis manual carefully before operating or
repairing your bus.
