Location of Accumulators
illa
Three accumulators provide the supply oil during normal operation and for
r In
temporary steering if a loss of pump oil flow occurs.
c.
The accumulators are located on the right side of the truck behind the front wheel.
A piston is located inside the accumulator. The cylinder above the piston is
charged with dry nitrogen. The nitrogen charge provides energy for normal
steering and for secondary steering capability if steering piston pump flow stops.

The oil pressure in the accumulator maintains the oil in the steering metering
pump for quick steering response. The oil pressure prevents hard spots in steering
by providing a steady flow of supply oil to the steering metering pump. The
steering piston pump only upstrokes when pressure drops below 90 percent of the
accumulator charging valve setting.
