The steering tag system is a closed loop system pressurized to 250 psi in conjunction with a pressure accumulator. The accumulator has a ten year life span, the pressure should be checked annually. There is also a 230 psi pressure sensor mounted in a hydraulic block that turns on a light at the drivers warning panel.
The accumulator is mounted up high between the drive and tag axels.
The system incorporates two actuators, the rear is the slave and can easily be seen by looking between the drive and tag tires. The forward actuator is a combination unit that also serves as the steering assist actuator but the two hydraulic systems are separate. The steering tag system is stand alone and does not use the engine driven hydraulic system.
