hydraulic pressure is with the vehicle’s exiting power steering pump (See Installation
Instructions).
①
Use a suitable individual pump, which doesn’t have an oil pressure relief valve.
It will supply pressure for both the steering box and the winch.
②
Use a combined pump with an integrated oil valve. The oil valve will supply two
kinds of flow based on the difference in demand. One type of flow will be constant and
should be used with the steering system. The other will provide higher pressure and
is for engineering use.
Caution:
Hydraulic system needs a relief valve to make sure the system is safe; If there is not a
relief valve in the system; it would be dangerous and the system can
’t be operated. If
your winch is driven by an existing hydraulic power system, the relief valve is also
existing.
