Question by: Melvin K on Oct 17, 2025, 10:42 AM
got a steering setup that only puts out around 3 gpm. is this unit gonna be happy in that range?
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 19, 2025, 6:15 AM
For flow, you are right in its wheelhouse. The stated flow range is 2 to 4 GPM, so a 3 GPM steering supply fits the intended operating window for this steering control unit.
Question by: Glen B on Oct 7, 2025, 6:09 PM
Will this unit work alright on my tractor's power steering? I'm running about 3 GPM.
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 9, 2025, 12:23 PM
This steering control unit should work well with your tractor, as it's designed for a flow range between 2 and 4 GPM.
Question by: Wayne W on Oct 11, 2025, 6:01 PM
got a steering setup that’s picky on oil. what fluids will this unit run, and how clean does the system need to be?
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 13, 2025, 4:01 PM
For fluid, it’s meant to run on most petroleum based hydraulic fluids and ATF Type A. On cleanliness, the recommended filtration target is ISO 18/13.
