THE MANUAL
VEHICLE AREAS
‘This Manual is intended to describe the design of the
Metrobus double deck public service vehicle manufactured
by Metro Cammell Weymann Lid.,to instruct in its
‘maintenance and repair and to inform the operator of|
design changes which may become necessary.
For this purpose, the vehicle is divided into twenty two
design arees (called Groups") each dealing with a
separate, identifiable function of the design. These twenty
‘two Groups ate listed on the front reference card of the
Manual in numerical order, each Group is separated and
identified by a divider in the binder, also in numerical
order.
In such complex vehicle design, the interface between
the various systems and components can be described as
clastic, depending on how the observer sees it. Generally,
‘this Manual deals with the various separate functions of
{an otherwise comprehensive system. For example, on an
hydraulically braked vehicle, Group 22, Brake Operating
Gear, the Manual deals with that part of the braking
function, from the pedal to actuator, with no more then
8a cross reference to other functions of the integrated
hydraulic system such as Steering and Engine Cooting.
This epprozch allows a simplified explanation of what
happens between a foot pedal and a brake actuator. The
schematic drawings illustrating this must not be takon to
represent anything more than one part of an incomplete
system. The complote hydraulic system will be found in
Group 0, General. Routine inspections and the diagnosis
cof hydraulic faults must be conducted with this relation-
ship of braking, steering and engine cooling in mind.
Funetions served by the pneumatic generating and storage
system are similarly separated.
‘The exception to this breakdown in Group 28, Electrical
which describes the whole electrical system, Generally,
where thare is an electrical service to a mechanical,
hydraulic or pneumatic function, e.g. a warning or safety
device, that Group only notes the existence of the device
and under what conditions it operates. The wiring and
switches which activate the device will be described in
Group 28.
Technical Descript
LAYOUT OF TEXT
Each of the twenty two groups in the Manual is broken
down into four Headings:
‘Technical Description which covers the design concept of
a function or component, describing its purpose in the
vehicle and how it operates.
Repair which covers all aspects of system and component
maintenance, inspection, repair and test.
‘Specifications which summarises all system, and compon-
ent pressures, torque values end other technical data,
‘Special Information which will be used to advise the
‘operator of all service bulletins issued by the Company.
At the Company's discretion, this special information wil
‘be absorbed into the three main headings when the Manual,
(or part of it, is reprinted,
To assist identification of these Headings within a
section, each right pege of the Manual has a black
‘marker on the right hand edge visible when the
Manual is closed. The position of these markers
is shown and identified on the Contents Lists of
all Groups.frei MGM SERVICE

VARIANTS:
‘At the front of each Group in the Manual will be found
‘the “Front Sheet” which gives the Group No. and Title,
together with variants on the basic vehicle design, e.g
‘The vehicle is offered to operators with the option of
either Hydraulic or Preumatic Brake Operating Cover:
‘The complete Manual will contain Group 222 (Hydraulic)
‘and Group 22(b} Pneumatic) but an operstor who orders
‘an hydraulically braked bus will receive Group 22a) in
his copy of the Manual, while an operator ordering a
ily braked bus will receive Group 22(b)..
Technical Descriptic
‘The various sub groups are stated in the relevant Group,
front sheet.
Where an Option causes a minor change in a System
common to both variants, this change is indicated in
the System text and a Sub-Group is not created, e.g,
Group 22 a, Repair, Section 4, page 2, Fig. 1 illustrates
the only difference in the Brake Operating Gear (Hydraulics)

‘The hollow axle casing assembly has the differential
housing positioned to the right of the axle, when
viewed from the rear of the vehicle. The differential
input shaft is angled 10° away from the contre of the
vehicle.
‘The differential output driving shafts drive the hubs,
‘which carry the brake drums and wheels, through

‘Three variations in axle ratio are possible, The standard
ratio of .1:1 and two alternatives of 6.7:1 and 6.1:1
The brakes are Kirkstall supplied and are provided
with SAB automatic wear adjustment. The brake drums,
constructed of special alloy cast iron, are carried on the
