I. Maintenance

1 Maintenance Intervals

To increase road safety, we recommend to proceed to a maintenance of the steering systemevery 50,000 kms.

2 Maintenance Work

2.1 Checking the Fit of the Mounting Bolts

Check whether the bolts on the steering gear (steering box, transmission parts, steering col-umn) are fitting closely.

If required retighten the bolts in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions.

2.2 Checking the Straight Ahead Position of the Steering Gear and the Vehicle

Place the front wheels on swivel plates.

Determine the total number of steering wheel turns.

From the lock stop, rotate the steering gear back by half the number of total steering wheelturns.

Then continue to rotate until the marks on the steering input shaft/protecting cap coincide withthe marks on the valve housing.

Check whether the steered wheels are in the straight ahead driving position.

A correction can be made by turning the ball joint at the tie rod further in or out.

Attention:

If a correction of the setting turns out to be necessary, it may well be that this necessity origi-nates in a preceding accident-like event.

Therefore:

S check whether the steering gear is installed in a twisted position

S check all further transmission parts for bending, cracks or torsion.

Deformed parts may not be re-bent but must be replaced.

2.3 Checking the Play of the Steering Column

By moving (shaking) the steering wheel sideward to and fro, check whether there is any play.If so, check the steering column bearing arrangement or replace the bearing.

2.4 Checking the Universal Joint and the Universal Joint Disc between UpperSteering Input Shaft and Steering Box for Angular Play and Stiff Operation

If play or stiff operation are found, repair or replace the defective component.

2.5 Checking the High Spot Adjustment (Increase in Frictional Torque) (Can be donefor ZF Recirculating Ball Power Steering Gears only)

S Rotate the steering gear to straight ahead. To be able to do so, determine the totalnumber of steering wheel turns.

S From the lock stop, rotate the steering gear back by half the total number of steeringwheel turns.

S Check whether the straight ahead driving marks coincide.

S Remove the drag link/tie rod from the drop arm.

S Fit the torque meter to the steering wheel - cf. Chapter VII..

S Rotate the steering gear to one end position and, while doing so, measure the frictionaltorque required to rotate the steering gear outside the straight ahead driving range(approx. 1/2 turn before reaching the lock stop). The value determined corresponds tothe basic frictional torque (without frictional torque increase).

S Then, from the straight ahead driving position, rotate the steering gear 1/2 turn to theleft and to the right and measure the increase in frictional torque.

Specified values for increase in frictional torque (ADP: Automatic High Spot Re-Adjust-ment):

without ADP with ADP

Type 8051 10...60 Ncm -

Type 8052 5...30 Ncm 10...55 Ncm

Type 8053/54 5...30 Ncm 10...45 Ncm

Type 8055/8076 5...40 Ncm -

Type 8073 - 10...65 Ncm

Type 8074/8075 5...30 Ncm 10...35 Ncm

Type 8074 with Servotronic 5...30 Ncm 10...35 Ncm

Type 8075 with Servotronic 5...30 Ncm 10...35 Ncm

If the specified value is not reached, a new adjustment is required.

2.6 New Adjustment of High Spot (Increase in Frictional Torque) for Types8051...8076

Rotate the steering gear to the straight ahead position. Loosen the sealing nut (27) and turnthe adjusting screw (62) back until there is no more increase in frictional torque (high spot) tobe found. Then measure the existing basic frictional torque by slowly rotating the steering geararound mid-position within the straight ahead driving range.Next, adjust the frictional torque increase (high spot) of the steering gear around mid-position.To do so, turn the adjusting screw (62) clockwise until an increase in frictional torque (see tablebelow) as compared with the basic frictional torque is reached.

Specified values for frictional torque increase:

Type 8051 60...80 NcmType 8052 30...40 NcmType 8053/54 40...50 NcmType 8055/8076 30...50 NcmType 8073 20...40 NcmType 8074/8075 20...35 NcmType 8074 with Servotronic 20...35 NcmType 8075 with Servotronic 20...35 Ncm

During this adjustment, permanently rotate the steering wheel 1/2 turn to the left and to theright from the straight ahead driving position.

Tighten the sealing nut (27) and hold the adjusting screw (62) fast while doing so.

Tightening torque: 30 Nm

Check again the increase in frictional torque (high spot) thus adjusted.

3 Checking for External Leakproofness

S Start the engine.S Check whether all screwed connections and lines of the steering system and the sealing

elements on the steering gear and on the pump are leakproof. Repair leakages, if any.S Stop the engine.

4 Visual Inspection

Check all hoses and lines for possible chafe marks and check the bellows and collars for cracks,damages, twisting and firm fit.

1 Fitting the ZF Servotest Tester

Fit the ZF Servotest Tester to the pressure line between the ZF oil pump and the ZF steeringgear (see illustration below) at a place enabling a perfect monitoring of the indicating instru-ments from the driver’s seat.

Note:The illustration shows a ZF Rack and Pinion Power Steering Gear. However, the installation ofthe tester is analogous for the ZF Recirculating Ball Power Steering Gear.

For the fitment and operation of the ZF Servotest Tester, please refer to the ZF Servotest Operat-ing Instructions.

2 Checking the Oil Level

Note:

S Prior to removing the oil tank cover, thoroughly clean the oil tank and its immediatesurroundings to prevent impurities from getting into the steering system.

S When the steering system is filled with hydraulic fluid, there is a risk of impurities gettinginto to steering system. Therefore, to avoid malfunctions caused by foreign bodies in thesystem, maximum cleanliness is an absolute must during initial fill and during all furthertopping-ups.

Oil grade required: please refer to the lubricants list TE-ML 09 or to the vehicle manufacturer’soil specification.

S with the engine off:

The oil in the oil tank should reach the “max.” mark.

S with the engine running:

The oil level in the oil tank should be between the “min.” and “max.” marks.

After the engine was turned off, the oil level may rise by 5 mm maximum. If it rises by morethan 5 mm, bleed the steering system.

3 Bleeding the Steering System

Steering gear versions with bleeding screw (33)- ZF Recirculating Ball Power SteeringGears only:

Fill the oil tank with the specified oil (see vehicle manufacturer’s instructions or list of lubricantsTE-ML 09) to the ”max.” mark.

Relieve the front axle by jacking it up.

With the engine off, slowly rotate the steering gear twice from lock to lock.

Top up with oil to the ”max.” mark.

Remove the closing cap at the bleeder screw (33) and start the engine.

Make sure the oil tank is permanently filled with oil.

Then open the bleeder screw by 1/2...1 turn to enable the air to escape.

As soon as oil only is escaping from the bore of the bleeder screw (33), tighten the bleederscrew with a torque of 5 Nm.

Slowly rotate the steering gear several times from lock to lock, making sure not to build uptoo high a force at the lock stops to prevent the oil from foaming.

Note:

On vehicles with poor bleeding owing to unfavourable positions of the cylinder line ports,bleeding may take place prior to mounting the tie rods (to the wheel suspension system)/thedrop arm. As a larger stroke is now possible, the bleeding operation can be sped up.

Check the oil level.

If required, top up with oil.

Again open the bleeder screw (33) by 1/2...1 turn to enable any further air to escape.

Put on the bleeder screw (33) closing cap.

Stop the engine and check by how much the oil level rises in the oil tank.

If it rises by more than approx. 5 mm, the bleeding operation described above has to berepeated.

4 Checking the Hydraulic Functioning of the Steering System

4.1 Checking the Tension of the Drive Belt

Check the drive belt tension.

Even at maximum pressure within the steering system, the drive belt must transmit the powerwithout any slip.

4.2 Checking the Maximum Pressure/Pressure Relief of the ZF Pump

For the maximum pressure indication, refer to the pump nameplate.

Start the engine.

At engine idling speed, close the shut-off valve of the ZF Servotest tester and read the maxi-mum pressure.

Attention:

Allow the maximum pressure to act for a short time only, maximum 5 seconds, for otherwisethe inner pump components would be heated excessively thus entailing a possible early wear.

Turn the shut-off valve back to its initial position.

Specified value: Nominal value indicated on the nameplate � 10%

If the specified value is not attained, repair or replace the pump.

4.3 Checking the Pump Flow Rate

At engine idling speed, close the shut-off valve to an extent enabling the generation of thetest pressure (see technical data sheet) required for the pump type in question.

Read the flow rate (specified values see technical data sheet).

If the specified value is not reached, repair or replace the pump.

4.4 Checking the Maximum Pressure and the Leakage Rate of the Power Steering

S For versions without hydraulic steering limitation

Build up the maximum pressure in the steering system.To do so, rotate the steering gear to the lock stop or lock it by means of a convenient device.

S For versions with hydraulic steering limitation

Using an appropriate tool, lock the steering gear outside the range in which the hydraulicsteering limitation operates (for instance, mid-position).

Troubleshooting

9Maintenance, Troubleshooting, Oil-/Filter Change, Disassembly, Assembly

S For versions with/without hydraulic steering limitation

Actuate the steering valve to maximum extent and, thereby, build up maximum pressure.

Have the engine run at idling speed.

Read the maximum pressure at the ZF Servotest tester.

Carry our the same measurement as above, but steer to the left.

If the pump maximum pressure previously measured is not attained, repair or replace the powersteering gear.

Read the flow rate (corresponding to the leakage oil rate) at the ZF Servotest tester.

Specified value: max.1 dm3/min

4.5 Measuring the Steering Wheel Play

Note:

This check can only be carried out for a ZF Recirculating Ball Power Steering Gear.

S Jack the steered axle up.

S By fitting a locking device, lock the drop arm in the straight ahead driving position ofthe steering gear.

S Fit a scale (cf. Chapter VII.) to the steering wheel and fasten the index hand at thedashboard or at the windscreen.

S Start the engine.

S Watch the pressure gauge and slowly rotate the steering wheel to the left.

S When a pressure rise of 1 bar as compared with idle pressure is reached, hold the steeringwheel fast and mark the scale value on the scale.

S Then turn the steering wheel to the right until again a pressure rise of 1 bar is attained.

S Measure the total travel covered at the steering wheel circumference.

S Specified value: max. 25 mm

S If the travel is more than 25 mm, there is mechanical play in the steering box. The steer-ing box must in this case be removed from the vehicle and repaired.

S Stop the engine, remove the ZF Servotest tester, top up the oil, put the drag link intoplace and fasten and secure it.

S Lower the steered axle down to the ground.
