POWER STEERING
Procedure for Oil Filling and Bleeding of Power
Steering
(Ensure that Power Steering fluid reservoir is totally
clean before starting the work)
1. Fill the reservoir nearly full. Crank the engine for 10
seconds without allowing it to start (if possible). If engine
does start, shut the engine immediately. Check & refill
the reservoir repeat atleast three times, each time
checking & refilling the reservoir.
2. Check for leakage in the system and if noticed take
corrective action.
3. Start the engine and steer the vehicle from full left to full
right turns 3-4 times.
4. Add fluid if necessary to maintain the level upto filter top.
NOTICE
Do not force the wheel against lock position either
extreme left or right. The power steering pump may get
damaged. Hold it lightly.
5. When the engine is at steady speed, check for bubble
or foaming in the oil. If present it indicates that air is
getting sucked into the systems. Check the suction
line/fittings and correct if necessary.
6. Once the system is bled properly and free from foaming
there should not be any appreciable change in oil level
in the reservoir, when the engine is started or stopped
repeatedly.
7. Now the system is ready for driving.
Final oil level should be at ‘H’ mark on dip stick.
NOTICE
* Do not allow fluid level to drop significantly or run out
of the reservoir during the above operation. This may
induce air to the system.
* Do not start the engine without oil in the power steering
system. This will result in serious damage to the
pump. In case of emergency disconnect the pump belt
and then start the engine.
* Always use recommended oil from closed containers.
Any dirty oil poured in the system will result in damage
to pump and gear box.
