SBI-1

In normal stopping situations, the driver activates the yellow

caution lights when approaching a stop (where required),

applies the service brake to bring the bus to a complete stop,

pulls the parking brake to park the bus, and finally, opens the

door to activate the flashing red lights and extend the stop

sign. This final step activates the AutoBrake system, eliminat-

ing the need for the driver to activate the parking brake.

The Bendix AutoBrake uses a pneumatic solenoid, powered

by the vehicle's stop arm solenoid circuit. When used prop-

erly in compliance with state regulations, AutoBrake's nomi-

nal 44 psi rear axle service brake application prevents the bus

from rolling, without having to use the parking brake. When

the driver closes the door to continue on the route, AutoBrake

is automatically released.

AutoBrake is a supplemental brake system, and is not in-

tended as a parking brake. That means the driver still needs

to keep their foot on the brake pedal. If the driver removes his

or her foot during the AutoBrake application, a warning buzzer

and amber dash lamp will activate. The buzzer and lamp will

deactivate when brake pressure is reapplied or the parking

brake is engaged.
