Release the hood hold-down latches. Pull forward lightly on the front handhold. A spring-loaded cable limits the
opening range and helps support the
hood in the open position.
The hold-open strut automatically
trips to prevent accidental closure.
To Open
To open the hood:
1. Unlatch the right side hood latch. Lift the latch handle and free the elastic latch from the notches of the cowl-mounted bracket.
Repeat this for the latch on the left side of the bus.
2. At the front of the bus, grasp the handhold above the center of the grille. Pull lightly backward. The torsion hinge is balanced in such
a way as to require very little effort to lift the hood. As the hood raises, control it with the free hand, especially in windy conditions.
Open the hood fully until it stops slightly beyond vertical. A spring-cushioned cable on the underside stops the hood at its open
position. A latch strut on the right side of the hood trips to prevent the hood from accidentally falling shut after being opened fully.
