1.1. Purpose
This bulletin introduces a preventive maintenance
schedule for the Roof Cable
Guide System, located above the artic joint
bellows, to ensure the system functions
properly over the life of the vehicle. This
bulletin covers the various configurations
of the Roof Cable Guide System applicable
to diesel-electric, BRT, and trolley vehicles.
Perform the inspections that apply to
your specific vehicle configuration. See
“Fig. 1: Diesel-Electric Roof Cable Guide”
on page 3. See “Fig. 2: BRT Diesel-Electric
Roof Cable Guide” on page 4. See
“Fig. 3: Trolley Roof Cable Guide” on
page 4.
1.2. Yearly Preventive Maintenance
Perform the following inspections on a
yearly basis:
❒ Inspect the spring steel blade for cracks,
twists, kinks, or any other damage.
❒ Inspect the protective covering and cables
or hoses for fretting wear or other damage.
Replace any damaged covering, cables, or
hoses.
❒ Inspect the hoses and/or cables to ensure
they are properly clamped and supported.
❒ Inspect the pivot bearing for wear or looseness.
Replace the bearing if it rattles inside
the housing or if the bearing makes
scratching or groaning sounds during
operation.
☞NOTE:
The pivot bearing is located mid-span on
the spring steel blade and connects the
blade to the end of the A-frame.
❒ Inspect the plastic washers for wear and
replace as necessary.
☞NOTE:
Plastic washers are located on the spring
steel blade mounting brackets and clamp
plates and are used on diesel-electric
applications.
❒ Inspect the rollers on the chariot & carrier
assembly for wear and ensure that the rollers
operate smoothly in the guide rail.
Replace the chariot if the rollers are worn
or damaged.
☞NOTE:
The chariot & carrier assembly is located
