Kawasaki axial piston pump and pump control unit, The hydraul ic pump is tilted and discharges the ‘oil, through the control box and the pump control unit according to the order rudder angle from the steering stand, The ram thrust produced by the pressure oi! is transmitted to the tiller arm through the ram pin and the roller bearings and converted to the torque of the tiller keyed to the rudder stock and then the rudder is moved. The signal of the actual rudder angle is directly feed-backed to the steering stand by means of the repeat back unit. and when it coincides with the signal of the order rudder angle. the rudder stops. Thus. in the control system of the Electrical Pump Control (Continuous Cont- rol) Steering Gear. the actual rudder angle is directly compared with the order rudder angle and the devia’ n signal between order and actual rudder angles controls directly the tilting angle of the hydraulic pump. Therefore the steering gear can obtain the very fast response and the accurate rudder angle. and the ship can keep her heading correctly with a less steering order. This improves the propulsion efficiency remarkably and consequently can save fuel consumption of the main engine highly. One or two sets of the hydraulic pump and electric motor are provided and have enough capacity to operate the rudder within the time required by the class: ‘cation society. For the specifications of the steering gear. refer to the PARTICULARS of the separate volume, For the general arrangement and the hydraulic circuit, refer to the drawings of ARRANGEMENT and HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT of the separate volume. 2 Detailed Description of Main Parts 21° Steering Gear : 244 Tiller : (Fig. 1) The tiller made of cast steel, designed and manufactured according to the requirements of classi ion society is fixed to the rudder stock with the key. On the fork typed openings of the tiller, the hardened stee! plates are bolted and they contact directly with the roller bearing of the ram. According as the roller bearing rotates on this surface, the linear movement of the ram is converted to the circular motion of the tiller, 2.1.2 Ram and Hydraulic Cylinder : (Figs, 1 & 2) (1) The ram is made of carbon steel for mechanical structural use. and the hydraulic cylinder of nodular cast iron, (2) The ram pin is incorporated into the center of the ram whose surface has been finished with high accuracy, and the rotatory roller bearings are fitted into the upper and lower parts of the ram pin and contact directly with the fork typed openings of the tiller arm, The ram thrust is transmitted to the tiller through the ram pin, Therefore. the ram pin is subjected to a strong force. but this can be dealt with by employing the material of high tensile strength, The oilless metal is fitted in the bore of the roller bearing and minimize the rotational friction between the ram pin and the roller bearing, And also lubrication with oi! on the bearing is unnecessary. (3) Four (or two) hydraulic cylinders that move the two (or one) sets ‘of ram are securely installed on the bed plate of the hull. A pair of opposed hydraulic cylinders is connected with the ram 24.3 214 guide bar and a pair of parallel hydraulic cylinders (in case of four cylinders) is connected with the connecting bracket. The hydraulic pump unit and the electric motor are installed on the hydraulic cylinders, Inside of the each hydraulic cylinder, neck bushing is provided, Supports the ram and withstands the perpendicular component force of the ram Five V-packings are also provided inside of the each hydraulic cylinder for preventing oi! leakage, ‘The packings are tightened by the adapters and the packing gland, and have superior sealing effect. The rudder movement is indicated by the rudder angle indicator plate fitted between opposed hydraulic cylinders. The max, turning angle is limited by the rudder angle limiter at about 36,6 degrees although the max. working angle is 35 degrees. And also the rudder movement is mechanically restricted by the Stopper at the bottom of hydraulic cylinder (about 37 degrees). Oil Tank : (Fig. 3) The oi! tank is made of cast iron and mounted on the hydraulic cy! inder, Inside of the tank, the hydraulic pump. |inkage necessary for tilting ‘the pump cylinder and pipes are installed. and outside of the tank, pump contro! unit, servo pump unit and valve unit are mounted. The oil filler. filter. orf level gauge, thermometer. drain plug etc. are also provided on the tank. Oil Block Valve : (Fig. 4. § 8 6) (1) Function Starting up one pump only provided that two or more pumps are in- stalled and also piping connection is ready for parailel running of the pumps, delivered pressure oi! from the running pump wil! not actuate ran, but merely drive the idle pumps in their reverse di- rection. The oi! block valve is a provision for preventing reverse driving of the idle pump, The oi! block valve consists mainly of main spool, spring and valve casing having ports AV, BV, AC, BC, (2) Operation Right oi! block valve = As the solenoid contro! valve is energized, pressure oi! delivered fron running pump reaches the right end of main spool through a hole of valve casing, moves the main spool to the left against spring and pass AV/AC and BV/BC are opened, Then the pressure oi! from pump is distributed to the hydraulic cylinders and actuates on the ran, Left o1l block valve : As the solenoid control.valve is de-energized. no pressure oil is supplied to the right end of main spool and valve is in the posi- tion where ports AV and BV are by-passed and AC and BC is closed as shown in the left figure. So pressure oi! from running punp as well as hydraulic cylinders is stopped at the valve and no pressure oi! is applied on idling pump, Idling pump, therefore, will not be driven in its reverse direction. The solenoid control valve is energized after a few second later than the starting of electric motor (after the electric motor reaches the rated revolution) by means of timer. Therefore e!- ectric motor can be started under low load condition due to the pressure oi! from cylinder being not applied on the pump. ‘Also the solenoid contro! valve has the following functions in the Electrical Pump Control (Continuous Control!) Steering Gear : @ At the operation of rudder limiter. steering gear can be instantaneously stopped by being “OFF” condition, @ At the failure of control source, ste ing gear can be auto- matically stopped by being “OFF * condition, ‘As well as the main spool and spring. ‘the safety valve, the spring loaded check valve for replenishing the hydraulic cylinder are integrally mounted on the valve casing and the 0B valve is in stalled outside of oi! tank as a part of valve unit. 2.2 Hydraulic Pump 2.2.1 Construction and Nane of Parts : (Fig. 8) The hydraulic pump manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd, 1s of a variable displacement axial piston type. available up to a high pressure of 400 kaf/exl. compact and light. and shons high volumetric and mechanical efficiencies without influenced by pressure range, The punp is installed inside of the oil tank by means of the bolted flange and direct-coupled through the flexible coupling to the electric motor outside of the oil tank, The pump consists mainly of the cylinder (151) fitted in the cylinder casing (202). the seven piston sub (NO, 123-piston, NO. 121-connecting rod. etc.) being in reciprocating motion in seven bores of the cylinder. the driving shaft sub-group which transmits power to the pump, the bearings which support the driving shaft. the bearing casing (201). the front cover (251) in which oi! seal (103) is provided. the valve cover sub-group, The cylinder (151) is guided by the center rod (161) and rotated on the valve plate (171) fitted on the valve cover (253), As contact surfaces of the cylinder and the valve plate are of the spherical construction, self-centering can be obtained when the cylinder is rotated, The driving shaft (101) is supported by the bearing casing (201) ‘through the roller bearing (104) and tapered roller bearing (111). The cylinder casing (202) is supported by the two needle roller bear ings(205). The cylinder casing (202) together with the cylinder (151). therefore. can be tilted around the axis of the needle roller bearings (205) by moving the pin of the cylinder casing by means of pump contro! unit, Rotating motion of the driving shaft (101) actuated by an electric motor is transmitted to the cylinder (151) through the connecting rod (121), the cylinder (151) is accordingly rotated around its center in the synchronous speed of the driving shaft (101). In the case the cylinder (151) is located in the oblique position against the driving shaft centre. the piston (123) reciprocates in the cylinder bore relatively to the cylinder. The valve plate (171) having a suction-and a delivery-port to change over oil with the reciprocating motion of the piston is provided be- ‘tween the cylinder (151) and the valve cover (253), The valve plate (ITI) and the cylinder (151) are in optimum hydraulic balance during pump running, O11 to be delivered from and sucked in the pump cylinder passes through the passages in the valve cover (253), the cylinder casing (202) and the pipe flange (254). then it is transferred to the pipe outside of ‘the pump, 222 Suction valve unit(No, 280-suction valve cover, No, 2B1-poppet. No 283-spring etc) serves for replenishing oi! automatically from ‘the oi tank during punp running. Principle of Operation : (Fig. 9) The driving shaft (101) of the pump is driven by the electric motor through the flexible coup! ing. Rotating motion of the shaft is thereafter transmitted to the cylinder ‘through the piston sub as described in foregoing sub-section, Referring to the sectional views of the pump in Fig. 9, principle of pumping action is iflustrated, : Middle and bottom of the right figures are the sections perpendicular to the left figure, and direction of rotation is assumed as clockwise viewed fron the shaft end, In the case that the tilting angle of the cylinder is equal to zero. i.e, the axis of the cylinder aligns with that of the driving shaft as shown in top and middle figures, any relative motion between the piston and the cylinder bore with pump rotation will not occur. no oi! ' consequently delivered. No delivery from the pump with its rotation as described above is cailed as neutral, In the case that the cylinder is tilted around its tilting axis as shown in the bottom figure, the pistons below X-Y line are going to withdraw from the bottom of the cylinder bore with their clockwise rotation and suck 01! through the port “b” of the valve plate, and the pistons above X-Y line are going to approach to the bottom of the cylinder bore and discharge oi! through the port “a” of the valve plate, Displacement per revolution depends on the tilting angle of the cylinder from its neutral position and reaches its maximum value at the tilting angle of 27 degrees (the maximum tilting angle i adjusted -10- according to the type of steering gear). \f the cylinder is tilted to the reverse direction of the bottom figure, the reverse action of the pistons relative to the cylinder bore will take place, accordingly the pistons below X-Y line will dis- charge oi! through the port “b” and the pistons above X-Y ine will suck oi! through the port “a”, Such being’ the case, direction of flow can be changed without altering the direction of rotation of the driving shaft, Relation of direction between oi! flow and tilt of the cylinder is shown in the table, The valve plate (171) in Fig, 8 having two ports “a” “b" in Fig. 9 is of importance for changing over oi! as well as preventing oi! kage through the cylinder end, 2.3 Continuous Control System : 231 Operation : (Fig. 11.8 12) . The signal of order rudder angle 1s compared with the feed-back signal * of actual rudder angle at the steering stand and its deviation signal is transformed into the pump contro! signal in the contro! box. By this signal. the torque motor 1s driven and the hydraulic pump is tilted through the hydraulic regulator, The oi! is consequently dis- charged from the hydraulic pump and applied to the hydraulic cyl tnder. and the tiller will be rotated through the ram and the ram pin. The torque motor is stopped when the pump tilting angle reaches that corresponding to the pump control signal because the electric signal of pump tilting angle is feed-backed to the control box by the differential transformer (LVDT) in the pump contro! unit, In proportion as the actual rudder angle nears to the order angle, the hydraulic pump returns to neutral position due to the reverse -1ie rotation of torque motor and the tiller stops when the actual rudder angle coincides with order angle and oil is not discharged from the hydraulic pump because the electric signal of actual rudder angle is feed-backed to the steering stand by the repeat back unit. 232 Construction : (1) Control Box : This box is supplied by the autopilot manufacturer in order to transform the deviation signal from the steering stand into the pum control signal and drive the torque motor, It also controls the solenoid control valve when the rudder angle limiter 1s operated. (2) Purp Control Unit : (Fig. 13) This unit consists of hydraulic regulator. torque motor and purp tilting angle indicator plate, differential transformer (LVDT). The pump contro! signal from contro! box drives the torque motor and the hydraulic pump is continuously control led through the hydraulic regulator. ; The differential transformer (LVDT) 1s also provided in order to feed-back the electric signal of the pump tilting angle to the control box. The pump control knob for local steering is usually mounted on the pump control unit and used when the autopilot system is failed or steering gear is adjusted. (2.1) Hydraulic Regulator : (Fig, 13) The pilot spool (202) of the hydraulic regulator is moved by the torque motor (101), The servo piston (403) connected to the cylinder casing of hydraulic pup is also moved by the help of pressure oi! generated from the servo pump and the oil is dis~ charged from the hydraulic pump, Operation of regulator is explained by referring to Fin, 12, -12- The rotor shaft of torque motor is connected to the pilot spool (202) and rotational movenent is converted to the stroke of spool, The servo piston (403) is also connected to the tilting pin of pump and the movement of piston is transmitted to the punp. While, the servo piston (403)is connected to the feed-back sleeve (203) through feed-back lever (303) and the stroke of piston is feed-backed to the feed-back sleeve, When the pilot spool (202) is controlled to “pushing in” direct- ion (rightward in the figure), pressure oil from servo pump 1s lead into the chanber A (oi! passage fron a to b is closed). The chanber B is opened to the drain through oil passage b to c. Accordingly the servo piston (403) moves rightward and stops at the position where the feed-back sieeve (203) closes the oil passa b to the drain, that is, the servo piston stops at the position corresponding to the stroke of pilot spoo! (202). Servo piston (403) tilts the pump in the same direction and by the same angle in accordance with the movement of pilot spool (202). When the pilot spool (202) is controlled to “pulling out” direct- ion (leftward in the figure), pressure oi! is lead into both chanber A and B, As pressure receiving area of chamber B is larger than that of A. servo piston (403) moves leftward and stops at the posi jon where the pilot spool stops, At that position ‘the oi! passage from ¢ to the drain opens to chamber B and the oil passage from a to b is closed, Servo piston (403) tilts the pump in the same direction and by ‘the same angle in accordance with the movement of pilot spool, Also the spring (655) is provided in order to keep the pump at neutral position (Tilting angle 0 degree) when no force is given -13- to the pilot spool (202). This spring returns the pilot spool (202) to the neutral position when the control source of torque motor is failed and the pump also returns to neutral position. Note : Neutral position has been adjusted and set the adjusting pin (302) before delivery. Do not attempt to adjust the regulator at field (2.2) Torque Motor (Fig. 15) Torque motor is provided in order to control the pilot spool and consists mainly of the frame (1) where the stator (11) 1s mounted, the rotor with the spider (13) and magnet (12) fixed to’ the rotor shaft, the stopper with lever (3) and bolt (7), the name plate(5) with pump tilting angle indicator etc, and installed on the casing of hydraulic regulator, (2.3) Differential Transformer LVDT (Fig. 16) LVDT is provided in order to detect the movement of pilot spool and feed-back the electric signal of the pump tilting angle to the control box. LVDT consists of the case (2) with coil (9), the spindle (11) and core (10) connected to the pilot spool of regulator etc, and is mounted on the casing of regulator. (3) Servo Pump Unit (Fig, 17) Servo Pump Unit is provided in order to supply the pressure oi! to hydraulic regulator and 0B valve and mounted on the oi! tank, The servo pump is coupled to the electric motor through flexible coupling and started before main pump/motor, (4) Relief Valve for Servo Pump (Fig, 18) Relief valve is mounted on the manifold of valve unit in order to adjust the servo pressure, é Adjusting pressure is 18-20 kgf/ed and set before delivery. a (5) Line filter (Fig. 19) The working oi! flowed from the inlet of the filter by the servo pump is filtered while passing through the filter element from inside to outside and reaches the outlet, then actuates the hydraulic regulator and 0B valve, The filter consists of the cover (2) with an indicator, the tee (5) with a relief valve, the filter elenent (3), the drain plug (7). etc. (5.1) Indicator During the filtration, the filtering surface is contaminated by the accumulated dirt in the oil and the differential pressure between the inlet and the outlet is increased, which causes a bad effect on the servo pump and hydraulic equipments, So the indicator is provided in order to know the degree of clogging condition (differential pressure) beforehand, When the indicator ring (red) 1s floated up to the white level in the column(highest position), the differential pressure is 2 kef/ed, In this case, the element (3) must be cleaned, However it will be desirable to clean when the ring reaches the middle position in height (the differential pressure 1s 1 kgt/cd) since after then the ring will reach the top position comparatively in short time, (5.2) Relief Valve When the elenent is not cleaned although the indicator shows the clogging condition (highest position), the element may be danaged since the pressure on elenent is increased due to the less of allowable flow, The relief valve is provided in order to prevent the danage of hydraulic equipments and valve is operated when the differential pressure is 3.0~2.2 kef/ed. then a part of flow reaches the outlet directly without passing through the element, ~15- (6) a) Repeat Back Unit This unit is connected mechanically to the tiller in order to feed- back the electric signal of actual rudder angle to the steering stand, This unit is supplied by the autopilot manufacturer. Rudder Angle Limiter Rudder angle limiter 1s provided in ordér to stop the movement of steering gear instantaneously by cancelling the electric signal to torque motor and de-energizing the solenoid valve consequently 0B valve is unloaded when the steering gear wil! be moved by any reason over than the max, working angle (35 degrees on each side), The limit switches are mounted between opposed hydraulic cylinders and operated by the movement of ram, = Len 3 Instructions for Installation The steering gear will be shipped in sub-assembly groups. | In this case, special care should be taken to keep safe from injuring every parts, in particular the sliding surfaces of tiller. ram, ram pin. roller bearing and the gauges, ‘The tiller is usually installed on the rudder stock before launching, The_ hydraul cylinders are then installed on the bed plate of the hull.

Box”, adjust the position of the mechanical tilting stopper of the pump control unit, Loosen the lock nut, set the bolt (7) to the position 2~3 nm from the maximum tilting position of the lever (3). and then tighten the lock nut (68). This adjustment serves to limit the maximum tilting-angle during the local steering, Note : In this adjustment. prevent the lever (3) from striking this bolt (7) during the normal steering without fail, Also, during the local steering. don't strike the bolt (7) hardly with the lever. 4.2.8 Adjustment of Rudder Angle Limiter : Set the limit switch position of the rudder angle limiter at 362° . Confirm that the 0B valve becones unloaded (solenoid valve is de~ energized), the hydraulic pump returns to its neutral position and the steering gear stops. when the actual rudder angle reaches this limited angle, Then give an order of the opposite side to confirm that the 0B valve becomes again onloaded (solenoid valve is energized). the hydraulic pump is tilted, and the steering gear is moved, And also limit the max, order rudder angle of auto pilot so that the max, actual rudder angle is about 35.5° . 4.2.9 Measurement and Adjustment of Rudder Turning Speed : (1) Normal Steering : © The stee ing gear is tested to be capable of putting the rudder ‘over from 35 degrees on either side to 30 degrees on the way to 35 degrees on the other side in 28 seconds with the vessel running ahead at max, speed. © Correct adjustment has been finished before delivery from our works, -25- If something unsatisfied with the requirement of classification society will be found, adjust the max, pump tilting angle again, © For special requirements. adjustment has been made to satisfy its specifications, (2) Emergency Steering (in case of two pumps paralle! running) : The steering gear is tested to be capable of putting the rudder over from 15 degrees on either side to 15 degrees on the other side in 60 seconds with the vessel running ahead at half speed or 7 knots (or 8 knots). whichever is greater. One pump is used in emergency steering. 4.2.10 Adjusting Test of Safety Valve : (Fig, 22) The safety valve limits the max. pressure of the hydraulic system and releases abnormal high pressure produced in the hydraulic system to protect the system against abnormal load acting on the rudder. The adjusting pressure has been set at the adjusting pressure shown in PARTICULARS before delivery from our works, Re-adjustment is not re- quired accordingly. However, it is necessary to confirm the operation on board together with the pressure test of the hydraulic pipes, gaskets etc, . whose procedures are as follows : (1) Preparation : The safety valve test will be carried out by means of the pump control knob (Local Steering). © Disconnect the contro! box from electrical poner. (© Push the manual button of the solenoid control valve and lock it by means of lock nut, Depending on the safety valve subject to confirmation. the hydraulic pump and the stop valve shal! be operated as shown in Fig, 22. (2) Safety Valve Operation : © Start the electric motor and hydraulic pump and operate the steer- -26- ing gear by the pump control knob, © When the rudder angle is over 35 degrees, move the rudder slowly, Since the ram reaches the stopper at the bottom of the cylinder, the pressure will rise, Turn the handle then until the pump tilting angle comes near % of the design max. pump tilting angle Under this condition, confirm the adjusting pressure of the safety valve by observing the movement of the pointer of the pressure gauge, (The adjusting pressure is marked with red on the dial plate of the pressure gauge. ) © The operation of the safety valve shall not exceed 30-seconds at a time because the electric motor may cause burning, (3) Adjustment of Safety Valve : If the adjusting pressure of the safety valve is differed from the designed one, adjust it in the following manners. The assenbly section is shown in Fig, 6 © Remove the safety valve cap nut (3-10) and loosen the lock nut (3-6). © Adjust the pressure by turning the adjusting screw (3-2). Pressure will rise if screw 1s turned to right and pressure will drop if turned to left. © After the adjustment. fix the lock nut and put the cap nut as original. When confirming the safety valve, check for oi! leakage and ab- normality in each part of the steering gear. After the test is over. put the stop valve. isolating valve. solenoid contro! valve, pump control knob etc, to the original condition, & Steering Method The steering gear can be operated by the following methods assuring correct and easy handl ing and changing : (1) Automatic steering by remote control system in wheelhouse (2) Hand steering by renote control system in wheelhouse (Follow up control / Non-fol low up control) (3) Local steering in steering gear room (by the pump contro! knob) 5.1 Normal Steering = The normal steering is made by the above~nent ioned method. (1) or (2). For details. refer to the Instruction Manual of the autopilot maker because the contents are different depending upon the remote contro! system in the wheelhouse (bridge). The steering gear can be operated with all hydraulic cylinders and conbi- nations of hydraulic pumps in order to meet with the requirerents of classification society. : Also changing-over of the hydraulic pump can be done by the renote control of electric motor. The rudder angle can be freely controlled by the order signal of the remote control system from 35 degrees on either side to 35 degrees on the other side, Precautions : 1. Correctly operate the hydraulic pump and valves in accordance with the instruction plate, 5.2 Local Steering : In failure of the contro! system in the whee! house (bridge) or during ‘the adjustment operation of the steering gear. the steering gear can be ‘operated by the purp control knob of pump contro! unit mounted on the -28- oil tank in the steering gear room, ‘The steering gear is controlled by the following procedure. (1) Preparation (1.1) Disconnect the control box from electric power, (1.2) Push the manual button of the solenoid control valve and lock it by means of lock nut, (2) Operate the steering gear by turning the pump contro! knob by watch- ing the pump tilting angle indicator plate and rudder angle indicator plate, (3) When the steering gear reaches the desired angle, release the pump contro! knob, The knob and the hydraulic pump will return to the neutral position and steering gear will stop automatically. Precautions : 1. Correctly operate the hydraulic pump and the valves in accordance with the instruction plate, 2 Don't operate the steering gear over max. working angle (35 degrees) because the rudder angle limiter is not actuated in local steering. 3, Reduce the ship's speed to half of the max. service speed or 7 knots (or 8 knots) whichever is greater in case of the failure of pipings, and so on, -29- 6& Instructions for Maintenance In order to ensure good operation and long life of the steering gear, following maintenance and checks should be carried out, 6.1 General Notes : (1) Filling hydraulic system with working oi! *: ‘Apply good grade mineral hydraulic oi! or equivalent, and keep the working oi! fully supplied into the hydraulic cylinder, oi! tank, and piping system. ‘Any air in the hydraulic system will produce abnormal noises from the hydraul ic pump and cause not only unstable rudder angle but also other troubles, In case of replenishing the working oil. use the oi! of sane brand, (2) Correct Operation of Stop Valve : Correctly open and close the stop valve and isolating valve in accord- ance with the instruction plate. so Aur Vent Valve : Never open the valves during the steering gear is operated, If not. it will cause the failure of steering, © Safety Valve : Never touch the safety valve unreasonably because it has been co- trectly adjusted, (3) Lubrication and Rust Prevention of Each Part : Properly apply the lubricant on the ram surfaces and sliding levers.

Operate the steering gear by the pump control knob and adjust the is shown in packing gland to form a light film of oi! on the ram surface, h, Check for excessive oi! leakage by raising the pressure up to the adjusting pressure of safety valve, Cautions : 1. Assembly of wrong inserting direction of ram V-packing will lead to failure in sealing, 2 Care should be taken to the packing since it tends to fall itself when inserting, Dismantling and Assenbl ing of Line Filter : When the ii jicator of the filter shows the clogging condition (red indicator ring is floated up to the white level in the column). the line filter will be dismantled and the filter element cleaned in the following procedures (Fig. 19 is referred to). It will be desirable to clean when the ring reaches the middle posi jon in height. -42- a) Loosen the bolts (20) and remove the cover (2), b) Nut will be detected at the inlet side. After loosening the nut (6) thoroughly, shift the tee (5) by about 2 mn to the inlet side (left side) and pull out it, The filter element (3) will come out together with the tee, ¢) Loosen the nut (9) on the bottom of element and pull out the element 3). 4) Wash the element (3) by shaking in the washing oil and clean its surface by using a soft cloth. It is desirable to blow from the outlet side with compressed-air. 2) Loosen the drain plug (7) and discharge the oi! in the casing of filter. After cleaning the interior of casing. tighten again the drain plug. ) The assembly of the filter will be performed in reverse order to that of disassembly. © Tighten the nut (6) slightly by means of finger. When filter circuit is actuated, the packing (15) at the outlet side will be tightened automatically by the help of differential pressure, So there is no oi! leakage from the packing. © Tighten the bolts (20) hard up in symmetrical order little by little. 6.6 Dismantling and Assenbling of Hydraulic Pump : The hydraulic pump wil! be dismantled and checked in the fol lowing procedures, However, special attention and skill in dismantling and assenbl ing of ‘the pump are required. so it is recomendable that the work is performed by the specialist. if possible (Exploded view of axial piston pump in Fig. 10 is referred to ).
