Safety
Safety precautions
Always consider safety precautions before beginning a service procedure. Protect yourself and others
from injury. Take the following general precautions whenever servicing a hydraulic system.
Warning
Unintended vehicle or machine movement hazard.
Unintended movement of the machine or mechanism may cause injury to the technican or bystanders.
To prevent uintended movement, secure the machine or disable/disconnect the mechanism while
servicing.
Warning
Flammable cleaning solvents
Some cleaning solvents are flammable. To eliminate the risk of fire, do not use cleaning solvents in an
area where a source of ignition may be present.
Warning
Fluid under pressure
Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate your skin causing serious
injury and/or infection. This fluid may also be hot enough to cause burns. Use caution when dealing with
hydraulic fluid under pressure. Relieve pressure in the system before removing hoses, fittings, gauges, or
components. Never use your hand or any other body part to check for leaks in a pressurized line. Seek
medical attention immediately if you are cut by hydraulic fluid.
Warning
Personal safety
Protect yourself from injury. Use proper safety equipment, including safety glasses at all times.
Warning
Product safety
Steering units are safety components and therefore it is extremely important that the greatest care is
taken when servicing these products. There is not much wear on a steering unit and therefore they
normally outlast the application they are built into. Therefore the only recommended service work on
steering units is:
The symbols above appear in the illustrations and text of this manual. They are intended to
communicate helpful information at the point where it is most useful to the reader. In most instances,
the appearance of the symbol itself denotes its meaning. The legend above defines each symbol and
explains its purpose.

Seal kit for OSPU
Seal kit, Danfoss code 11140740 is valid for all codes of OSPU's.
2.75 - 5 and 8 mm Allan key.
12 mm screwdriver.
2 mm screwdriver.
13 mm ring spanner.
Plastic hammer.
Tweezers.
These tools are not available from Danfoss.
Place the housing with the ports facing down on the
work bench. Ensure that the cross pin (11) in the spool
and sleeve set (2) is in the horizontal position. The pin
(11) can be observed through the open end of the spool.
Press the spool (2) inwards (from the housing mounting
face end) and the sleeve (2), ring (7) and bearing
assembly (6) will be pushed out of the housing together.
Take bearing races and needle bearing (7) from the spool
and sleeve set (2). The outer bearing (7) race can
sometimes “stick” in the housing, therefore check that it
has come out.
Place the two flat neutral position springs in the slot.
Place the curved springs between the flat ones and press
them into place.
Configuration of spring set (12). There can be different
numbers of curved springs depending on configuration
of spring set. There can be 2, 4 or 6 curved springs.
OSPU
Spool and sleeve can be positioned relatively to each
other in 2 positions. Both positions possible are valid due
to symmetry of the OSPU spool/sleeve sets.
Guide the spool into the sleeve (2). Make sure the
centering springs (12) are placed into the slot.
Place the steering unit housing with the port face down
on the work bench. Guide the outer part of the assembly
tool into the bore for the spool/sleeve set (2).
Grease the shaft seal (Roto Glyd, 5) with hydraulic oil and
place them on the tool. Ensure that the Roto Glyd seal is
placed on the insertion tool as per the photograph.
Hold the outer part of the assembly tool in the bottom of
the steering unit housing and guide the inner part of the
tool right to the bottom.
Press and turn the shaft seal (5) into position in the
housing.

Assembling
Assembling (continued)
Insert the o-ring (18) in the grove on the housing.
Place the distributor plate (16) so that the channel holes
match the holes in the housing.
Guide the cardan shaft (13) down into the bore so that
the slot is parallel with the connection flange ports and
lines up with the cross pin (11).
Place the 2 O-rings (18) in the two groves in the gear rim.
Fit the gearwheel and rim (17) on the cardan shaft (13).
Place the gear wheel side with all the deeper splines
facing downwards. Only this side will fit on the cardan
shaft due to all gear sets used in OSPU has timing
securing: splines of gear wheel and cardan shaft can only
be assembled with correct timing.
Place the end cover (19) in position. Ensure that the bar
codes and writing are parallel with port face.
Fit the pin bolt screw (21) with washer (20) and place it in
the hole shown.
Fit the six screws (22) with new washers (20) and insert
them. Cross-tighten all the screws (22 and 23) with a
torque of 30 ±-6 N•m [265.5 ± 53 lbf•in].
Replace the unit in the holding tool on gear set end.
The OSPU can now be function tested manually: it must
be possible to rotate input shaft with torque < 3.5 N•m
[31 lbf•in].
Assemble the torque compensator valve: new O-rings
(46) in spool (52), (44 and 45) on plug (50), spring (51) and
spool (52) to be pressed into plug (50).
Place o-ring (43) on adjusting screw (30). Screw in the
adjustment screw (30) with an 5 mm Allan key.
Make the pressure setting on a test panel according to
valve setting specification.
Place o-ring (41) on the shock valve seats (28). Screw in
the seats (28) with a 2.75 mm Allan key into the cavities
indicated by the circles. Torque 6 ±1 N•m [53 ±9
lbf•in].
Place one ball (27) in each of the shock valve cavities.
Place springs with trust pads (26) over the two balls.
