Start the engine.
Note: Do this check for no more than 5 seconds, otherwise the hydraulic pump may be damaged.
Turn the steering wheel all the way and hold it for a while in this position. In this case, the pressure rises to the highest possible value.
Check the following items for leaks:
- gear o-ring on the steering valve body.
- all hose connections.
- gear rack seals.
Turn the steering wheel all the way to the other side, hold for a while in this position and repeat the test.
Replace the covers and secure them with clamps.
Note: If there is oil in the steering gear housing and/or protective boots, replace the steering gear.
