The steering priority valve is an infinite positioning valve located in the inlet of the control valve (8). It ensures that
the closed centered steering system receives oil, before sending steering pump oil to the loader control valve.
Oil enters the inlet port (a) of the priority valve from the piston pump, through the inlet of the loader valve. The
priority spool is spring-loaded (h) and blocks off the loader valve port (c). The oil flows around the priority valve
spool (f), then out of the steering control port (b) and on to the steering control valve (16). Excess pump flow
causes the pressure to build up through the balance orifice (g) on the non-spring side of the priority spool (f ).
This causes the priority spool (f) to start shifting, allowing the extra pump flow to be sent out through port (c) and
on to the loader valve while still meeting the steering flow demand. When the steering system is being used, it
needs more oil, and a pilot signal is sent back through the steering signal port (d) to the spring end of the priority
spool (f). When the priority valve senses the steering demand, the signal oil pressure on the spring end (h) of the
priority spool (f), in addition to the spring force, starts to shift the spool. This action restricts oil flow to the loader
valves. So the piston pump supplies more oil to the steering circuit.
When the steering cylinders reach the end of their travel, the pressure increases on the steering relief valve (e)
that is tied into the steering signal line. The steering relief valve is adjustable. The steering relief valve poppet
opens and sends the pilot oil back to the reservoir. As the oil flows to the reservoir, the pilot pressure on the
spring side of the priority spool (f) can not continue to rise. The pressure on the non-spring side of the spool conti-
nues to build through the balance orifice (g). The pressure on the non-spring side of the spool can then overcome
the spring tension and the pressure on the spring side of the priority spool. The spool shifts, shutting off the oil
flow to the steering system (b) and the pump flow is sent to the loader control valve (c).

Hydraulic Description
When the secondary steering pump (43) is electricaly activated, oil flows from the pump (43) to the piloted direc-
tional cartrige (F); with the spool in it’s closed position oil flows through a one way check (G) and on to the supply
port of the steering control valve. There is a check valve (K) located in the block to prevent the secondary steering
pump oil from entering the main control valve (9).
Relief pressure :
The relief valve (H) limits the over pressure of the SLS line to get maximum pressure (240 b) at pump (43).
Solenoid valve:
When the pump is energized the solenoid (J) is energized too, to depressurize the normal LS line of the steering
loader pump (3), this to avoid pump flow. Solenoid valve ON the load sense line of the steering orbitrol is totally
disconnected from the normal LS line .

ELECTRICAL DESCRIPTION
Power is provided to the secondary steering module from the accessory relay fuse ECA F17 to terminal (7) of the
module, from the fuse ECA F4 to terminal (1) of the module and fromthe fuse PRM A F2 to terminal (3). When the
operator starts the engine, hydraulic pressure builds up in the secondary steering switch above 2.4 bar (35 PSI)
and supplies a ground to terminal (9) of the module. Terminal (4) of the module is connected to the rear chassis
ground stud. Terminal (11) and (12) of the module is connected to the rear engine block ground stud.
If the machine loses steering pressure below 2.4 bar the pressure switch moves to the normally closed position,
and supplies terminal (8) of the secondary steering module a ground. Also tee’s off (spl-SEC STR) and supplies a
ground to the instrument cluster, to light the indicator on theAIC that tells the operator that the secondary steering
has been activated. At this time the secondary steering module will send power out terminal (2), to energize the
secondary steering motor. and the solenoid valve.
NOTE: The motor will run until the key is turned off.
Operation Test
While steering the machine at low idle, if the operator turns OFF the key switch and quickly turns it back to the ON
position, the secondary steering motor will turn on and the steering wheel can be turned back and forth to steer the
machine. The key switch must be turned to the on position before the pressure switch activates.
NOTE: To exit the test mode turn the key switch to the off position.
