HYDROSTATIC STEERING UNITS TYPE XY.../1 The M+S Hydraulic Hydrostatic Steering units are used in low-speed vehicles which driving speed does not exceed 60 km/h - such as: building machines, fork-lift trucks, harvesting machines, off-highway equipment and others. These hydraulic units amplify the torque to the steering wheels, with no need of hard mechanical connection. R The XY hydrostatic steering unit incorporates an axially displaced tracing valve and a metering pump in one housing. The working liquid is supplied by a separate pump and then is directed by the metering pump to the steering...
