POWER STEERING SYSTEM NOTE: The maintenance oi absolute cleanliness oi all parts is of utmost importance in the operation and servicing of the hydraulic power steering system. Of equal importance is the avoidance of nicks or burrs on any of the working parts. LUBRICATION AND BLEEDING 20. The front support casting (steering gear housing) is utilized as the power steering fluid reservoir. Fluid level should be maintained at %-inch above the top of the sector gear. Capacity is approximately 5 quarts. Type '*A" automatic transmission fluid is recommended for use as power steering fluid in Series II D- 15, Series III D-17 and Series IV D- 17 tractors. Recommendations for the very earliest production units was SAE 20W oil for all temperatures. On later models, the recommendation was SAE 5W-20 oil for temperatures below 0« F. and SAE lOW-30 oil for temperatures above 0" F. Due to sev- ' HYDRAULIC PUMP RELIEF TUBE „, L^ INTAKE TUBE DISCHARGE TUBE ^ RAM REAR TUBE RAM FRONT TUBE Fig. 10—Drawing showing the positions of rhe various power steering tubes, on D-14 and D-15 non-diesei tractors. eral different oils having been recommended, it would be advisable to check with the tractor operator or owner on type of oil being used before adding any oil to the fluid reservoir. Power steering system should be drained and refilled with new oil after each six months of use. Whenever the power steering oil lines have been disconnected, recon- nect the lines, fill the reservoir and cycle the system several times to bleed out any trapped air. Then, check fluid level and refill if necessary. SYSTEM OPERATING PRESSURE AND RELIEF VALVE 21. A pressure test of the hydraulic circuit will disclose whether the pump, relief valve or some other unit in the system is malfunctioning. To make such a test, proceed as follows: Con- nect a pressure test gage in series with the pump discharge (pressure) tube (refer to Figs 10, 11, 12, 13 and 13A), run engine at low idle speed until oil is warmed, then turn the steering wheel to either the extreme right or left position. The steering wheel should be held in the extreme position only long enough to observe the gage reading. Pump may be seriously damaged if steering wheel is held in this extreme position for an excessive length of time. Correct engine speed and power steering pressure are as follows: D-14 2000 rpm 1000 psi D-15 Non-Diesel. .2200 rpm 1200 psi D-15 Series II Non-Diesel 2000 rpm 1600 psi D-17 Non-Diesel 2000 rpm 1000 psi All Diesel Models 2000 rpm 1200 psi If gage reading is correct, pump and relief valve are O.K. and any trouble is located in the control valve, power steering cylinder and/or con- nections. If the pump output pressure is too high, relief valve is either improperly adjusted or is stuck in the closed position. If the output pressure is too low, the relief valve is improperly ad- BY-PASS TUBE RAM FRONT TUBE RAM REAR TUBE Fig. 11 — Drawing showing the positions of the various power steering tubes used on D-17 non-diesei tractors prior to tractor Serial No. D17-42001. 8
