Assist Rails and Access Steps

c2 dm 02.01.001

Warning: Wet or dirty shoe soles greatly increase the chance of slipping or falling. If shoe soles are wet or dirty, be especially careful when entering or exiting the bus. Always maintain three-point contact with the bus access system while entering and exiting the bus. Three-point contact means both feet and one hand, or both hands and one foot.

The two assist rails and three or four access steps are all part of the bus access system. Use these when entering or exiting the bus to increase security and comfort.

Folding Steps

Folding steps mounted on both sides of the bus assist in cleaning the windshield. The steps should be kept clean and the pivot points should be kept lubricated. See Fig..
