The steering and dumping valve is a common hydraulic valve for the machine's steering and dumping functions. The valve has
two slides, one for the steering and one for the dumping function.
The steering gear is mechanically interconnected with the trailer unit. Steering gear position, in combination with trailer unit
angle in relation to the tractor unit, acts on the steering slide and sends oil to the steering cylinders.
Non-return valves BV1, BV2 and BV4 distribute the pressure from the pumps in order to ensure a constant pressure for the
steering function.
The dump slide is controlled by a hydraulic servo pressure from the servo valve. The servo valve is controlled by the dump lever
in the cab.
A load-signal valve is mounted on the steering and dumping valve. It receives load-signals from the different functions and
sends the highest pressure to the control valves on the hydraulic pumps.
There is a drain on the load signal valve which relieves the load signal to the pumps when needed.
