I have noticed on these that they all have the inline attachment on the supply side to the steering motor (see outlined object in pic). I am guessing that this is a pressure reducer or such. My unit does not have this so I wonder if I need to get one before I install it. My pump is Behlin brand pump. The guy I bought it from said it worked but I am not familiar with them (or him). Maybe all of this info is in the manual. [Reply]  [No Email]

The pressure reducer/regulator is 41/2 inches long. Nancy's father installed the power steering on this tractor over 30 years ago; he probably had a good reason for installing the inline attachment. Hope this helps. [Reply]  [No Email]

When I do a search on "Behlen Manual" I get over 7500 hits. If someone could narrow that down a little that would be great. [Reply]  [No Email]

They might have the manual you're looking for. Behlen unit works really good on "old John" Nancy's 48A. Tractor can turn on a dime and give nine cents in change. Hope this helps. [Reply]  [No Email]
