Additional Installation Considerations
There are many makes and models of agricultural vehicles. The
additional installation considerations described below may or may
not apply to your particular vehicle. Detailed instructions are
included in “Chapter 2: Connecting the Hydraulics” if these items
do apply.
• Reactionary steering - it is important to know if your
vehicle has reactionary steering . If your vehicle has
reactionary steering, the steering wheel turns with the wheels,
similar to an ordinary automobile. If you have
non-
reactionary steering, the steering wheel does not turn when
the wheels turn.
If you do have reactionary steering, you must install Counter-
Balance Valve (optional accessory available from Satloc) in
between the steering cylinders and the steering unit. The
Counter Balance Valve blocks oil from flowing back into the
steering unit from the steering cylinders.
• Pressure regulation - if the steering pressure is significantly
less than the pressure delivered from the pump, you may need
to install a Pressure Reducing Valve (optional accessory
available through Satloc). For instance, the John Deere 55
series tractor uses a closed circuit steering system that
operates with significantly less pressure than what is available
from the main pump.
• Oil cooler - if the temperature in the hydraulic oil increases
beyond an appropriate range, an in-line oil cooler should be
installed (optional accessory available through Satloc).
• Higher-flow valve cartridges - if flow is insufficient, the
cartridge in the valve block can be replaced with a higher flow
valve (optional accessory available through Satloc).
