of the relief valve.
NOTE: The setting used in the pressure control valve for
the steering circuit is 1825 + 25 psi (128.3 + 1.8 kg/cm2).
The pump oil in passage ( ) goes around piston (4),
through check valve (5) and through line (8) to the
metering valve for the steering system. Piston (4) is held
in an open position by spring (15). The oil to check valve
(5) also goes through passage (7), into a chamber in
piston (4). When the pressure of the oil in line (8) and in
piston (4) is approximately 1825 psi (128.3 kg'cm2), the
force of the oil is more than the force of springs (15), and
the piston moves to a position that stops the oil from
passage (1) to line (8). When the pressure of the oil in
line (8) and the piston is less than 1825 psi (128.3
kg'cm2), spring (15) moves the piston to let more oil go
to line (8). When the pressure of the pump oil in
passage (I) is more than 1825 psi (128.3 kg,'cm2), the
action of springs (15) and the pressure of the oil in piston
(4) keeps the pressure of the oil to the steering system at
1825 psi (128.3 kg,'cm2).
