MF 50 Power steering Issue

Joes Massey · Aug 3, 2014

Hey Guys,Power steering on my 50 works good when turning to the right and coming back to center,works good when turning to the left.It's when you try to come back to center from the left its get hard until you get back to almost center.Any thoughts would be helpful.

Sounds like the control valve spool not quite centered. Link ends and pins if worn will make it hard to adjust right too, as any play will keep the spool valve from moving the full travel each way to fill the steering cylinder.

mine did exactly the same thing, adjustment link is too long, threads on one end are coarse and fine on other end

loosen both nuts on the adjusting link and turn it towards the coarse threaded end a bit, this will shorten the link some

if holes/pins are worn then you might be wasting your time until you fix that
