Power steering
Never try to turn the bus by pushing hard on the steering
wheel if the front wheels are blocked sideways for any rea-
son, against the kerb for example. High pressure on the
steering wheel will increase pressure in the power steering
system and cause overheating that may damage the oil
pump.
The bus can be steered even when the power steering
system is malfunctioning. If the power steering suddenly
ceases, it may feel like the steering is locked. This is not the
case however, but great force will be required to turn the
steering wheel.
Tips for summer driving
Remember that if the air conditioning/fans are run for long
periods with the engine stationary, this will strain the bat-
tery.
Never remove the engine thermostat to lower the engine
temperature. This will only impair engine cooling.
