Emergency Pneumatic Door Release

An emergency release valve is located above the door in the header cover. To use the

emergency release, push the lever in the direction of the arrow. This valve exhausts

air pressure in the door cylinder, allowing the door to be opened and closed manu-

ally.

The electrically operated outward opening door has a gear box that moves a lever

attached to the front door. To open the door, hold the spring-loaded switch in the

driver's area in the "OPEN" position until the door stops moving. An automatic switch

stops the action of the door. To close the door, move the switch to the "CLOSE" posi-

tion; the door will stop automatically when fully closed. Depending on option or-

dered there is a keyed switch on the outside of the body, on the cowl panel by the

Air Door Emergency Release

door, which operates the door from outside the bus.

With the door in the fully closed position, pull the release lever in the header panel

toward OPEN as far as possible. The linkage will release and the lever will "snap" into a

"park" position so it will not return forward when released. Push the door open to exit

the bus. To reset the release mechanism, move the lever to its rearward position, and

hold the driver operated spring-loaded switch in the "open" position until it clearly

engages, or until door is in the fully open position.
