Steering Metering Pump

Usage:

Remove Steering Metering Pump

1. Release the pressure in the hydraulic system as follows:

At operating temperature, the hydraulic oil is hot and under pressure.

Hot oil can cause burns. Sudden movement of the machine or release of
oil pressure can cause injury to persons on or near the machine. To
prevent possible injury, perform the following procedure before
working on the hydraulic and steering systems.

a. Move the machine to a smooth horizontal location. Move away from working machines and
personnel. Lower all implements to the ground. Install the wheel lean pin in front axle.

b. Permit only one operator on the machine. Keep all other personnel either away from the
machine or in view of the operator.

c. Activate the parking brake. Place all implements on the ground and put the blade in the
"FLOAT" position.

d. Stop the engine.

e. Turn the steering wheel back and forth several times to relieve pressure in the steering
accumulator.

f. Carefully loosen the filler cap on the hydraulic tank to release pressure in the tank.

g. Be sure all hydraulic pressure is released before any fitting, hose or component is loosened,
tightened, removed or adjusted.

h. Tighten the cap on the hydraulic tank.

i. The pressure in the hydraulic system must be released before lines or components can be
removed.
 Hydraulic pressure can exist in the hydraulic lines between the control
valves and the cylinders with the engine stopped. Manually relieve
pressure before working on any hydraulic circuit.

2. Remove cover (1) from steering wheel (2).

3. Remove spring (3) and nut (4) from steering wheel (2).

4. Mark steering wheel (2) and the spline for installation purposes. Remove steering wheel (2)
from the column.

5. Remove bolts (5) and cover (6) from the control group.

6. Remove bolts (7) and front cover (8) from the control group.
7. Remove bolts (9) that hold the steering metering pump to the control group.

8. Separate rear section of steering metering pump (10) from front section of steering metering
pump (11).

9. Put identification marks on five hose assemblies (12) for installation purposes. Disconnect five
hose assemblies (12) from rear section of steering metering pump (10). Plug the hose assemblies
in order to prevent the loss of oil, and to keep dirt out of the oil system.

10. Remove the rear section of steering metering pump (10).

11. Remove front section of steering metering pump (11) from the control group.
