The power steering gear assembly with tie rod is provided with a steering control valve. The steering control valve
introduces the high-pressure oil from the power steering pump assembly to the two sides of the rack piston to push
the rack piston. The integrated power cylinder piston is connected with the rack, so that the hydraulic power
subject to the rack piston is converted into the linear force to move the rack left and right; the linear force is
transmitted to the internal and external steering tie rods, and then transmitted to the steering knuckle; and the
steering knuckle turns the wheel. If hydraulic auxiliary is invalid, need more steering force applied to the steering
wheel for manual control of the steering.
Description of power steering fluid
Warning!
When adding or completely replacing the oil, be sure to use the correct power steering fluid; if not, the hose and
sealing element may be damaged and oil leaks. See power steering fluid recommended in this chapter.
The power steering pipeline assembly with oil can is made of plastic; and the internal oil level height can be seen.
An oil level scale mark at the side of the oil pot is used for indicating the correct level position in the power
steering fluid.
Be sure to correctly use oil.
