B-Port to Counterbalance Hose
Install a provided 3/4” JIC tee fitting to the “B” port on the steering assist valve. Connect the right
steer hose that was disconnected from the orbital to one of the open ports on the tee. Connect the
proper end of the B Port to Counterbalance hose to the remaining open port on the tee. Connect the
remaining open end of the hose to the “B” port on the side of the counterbalance valve that doesn’t
have the Brake port.
A-Port to Counterbalance Hose
Install a provided 3/4” JIC tee fitting to the “A” port on the steering assist valve. Connect the left steer
hose that was disconnected from the orbital to one of the open ports on the tee. Connect the proper
end of the A Port to Counterbalance hose to the remaining open port on the tee. Connect the remain-
ing open end of the hose to the “A” port on the side of the counterbalance valve that doesn’t have the
Brake port.
Note: It is important to trace the hoses so that the pressure and tank hoses are not accidentally
swapped for each other. This will cause valve failure. If the Left and Right Steer hoses are swapped,
the machine will steer opposite to the desired direction.
