Introdu ction
This manual provides service
information for Char-Lynn® Series 5 Steering Control Units. Step by step instructions for complete disassembly, inspec- tion and reassembly o
The following recommendations
should be followed to insure successful repairs.
• Most repairs require the removal of the control unit from the vehicle.
• Cleanliness is extremely important.
• Clean the port areas thor- oughly before disconnecting the hydraulic lines.
• Plug the control unit ports and cover open hydraulic lines immediately after they have been disconnected.
• Drain the oil and clean the
exterior of the control unit before making repairs.
• Wash all metal parts in clean solvent.
• Use filtered, moisturefree compressed air to dry the parts. Do not wipe them dry with paper towels or cloth – lint in a hydraulic system will ca
• Always use new seals when reassembling hydraulic control units.
• Lubricate new rubber seals with a petroleum jelly before installation.
• Torque all bolts over gasketed joints, then repeat the torquing sequence to make up for gasket compression.
After all repairs are complete it
is essential to verify the accura- cy of control unit repairs on an authorized test stand.

Note: Always use new seals when reassembling
hydraulic steering control units.
Refer to page 5 for seal kit part numbers.
Important: During reassembly lubricate the new seals with
a petroleum jelly such as Vaseline®. Also lubricate machined surfaces and bearings with clean hydraulic fluid.
10. Install the quad seal (see page 12 for 2-piece seal installations):
• Put one of the bearing races and sleeve into the housing.

19. Apply a light coating of
clean hydraulic fluid to
the spool and sleeve assem- bly and slide it
into the housing. Important: Do not damage the dust or quad seals..
20. Clamp the housing in a vise as shown in Figure 5. Use just enough clamping force to hold the housing secure- ly.
21. Lubricate and install a new o-ring seal in the groove in the housing.
22. Install the wear plate and align the holes in the wear plate with threaded holes in the housing.
Note: The holes in the wear plate are symmetrical.
23. Lubricate and install a new o-ring seal in the groove in the wear plate.
24. Install the gerotor and align the screw holes.
• Together, the housing and
bearing race create a groove into which the
quad seal will be installed.
• Hold the bearing race tightly against the input end of the housing by pushing on the gerotor end of the sleeve.
• Fit the quad seal into its seat through the input end of the housing. Be sure
the seal is not twisted.
• Remove the sleeve and bearing race.
12. Install the centering springs
in the spool. It is best to install the two flat pieces first. Next, install the curved pieces, three
at a time.
13. Fit the retaining ring over the centering springs.
14. Apply a light coating of clean hydraulic fluid to the spool and slide it into
the sleeve. Be sure the cen- tering springs fit into the notches in the sleeve.
15. Install the drive, be sure the
slot in the drive engages the pin.
16. Install the pin (see Figure 3).
17. Apply a light coating of petroleum jelly to the inner edge of the dust and quad seals.
18. Put the thrust bearing and races into the housing. The thrust bearing goes bet ween the two races (see Figure 2).
25. Lubricate and install a new
o-ring seal in the groove in the gerotor ring.
26. Lubricate and install a new o-ring and seal ring in the groove in the gerotor star.
27. Install end cap and seven cap screws. Tighten cap screws, in a crisscross pat- tern, to 16 -18 Nm
[140 -160 lb-in].
28. Remove the SCU from the vise.
29. Install the relief valve/check
