Reversing Hydraulic Pumps (Type 1, Type 2 & Type 3)
Mounting
The hydraulic pump should be mounted in a horizontal position clear of
spray and possible water immersion. It should also be located as near as
possible to the hydraulic steering cylinder.
Bolt the hydraulic pump to a substantial member to avoid vibration that
could damage the interconnecting pipework.
Cabling
Using a suitably sized cable (see below) route the pump leads back to the
course computer and connect to the motor terminals.
