System description:
! The ZF-Servocom RAS is a rear axle steering system which hydrostatically transmits the steering
movement of the front axle to the rear axle (as in the case of a hydraulic braking system).
! The hydrostatic power is transmitted from the master cylinder (front axle) via hydraulic connections
to the centering cylinder (rear axle).

Notes:
! This manual is exclusively intended to supplement the existing instructions for operation, maintenance
and inspection of the ZF-Servocom steering systems.
! All the work described here should be carried out within the framework of routine maintenance and
inspection of the ZF-Servocom.
! All the settings and test values or dimensions listed are standard values which apply for all versions.

Exception: The individual vehicle manufacturers may prescribe different values. Please take note
of the service information circulars and the spare parts list!

1.1 Mechanical design

1 ZF-Servocom 3 Centering cylinder
2 Master cylinder with 4 Hydraulic accumulator
pressure limiting valve 5 Hydraulic lines
and replenishing vavle 6 Pressure switch
7 Connecting rod

1.2 Function

! The steering movement is transmitted from the ZF-Servocom or front axle steering (1) mechanically
via a connecting rod (7) and hydraulically via hydraulic lines (5) to the master cylinder (2) which is
mounted on the front axle or vehicle chassis.
 The master cylinder (2) hydrostatically transmits the steering movement via hydraulic lines (5) to the
centering cylinder (3) on the trailing axle. This axle is steered by the centering cylinder via the piston
rod.
 The hydraulic accumulator (4) improves the rigidity of the hydrostatic transmission system and acts
permanently on the two centering pistons which are integrated into the centering cylinder (3).
 Pressure limiting valves are installed in the master cylinder (2) in order to protect the hydrostatic
system against impermissibly high pressures which could damage the system.
 The master cylinder (2) also includes replenishing valves to prevent the formation of a vacuum in
the unpressurized cylinder area and thus facilitate the steering movement.
The pressure switch (6) monitors the system pressure and is connected to a pilot lamp.
Additional information for versions with cut-off valve (8):
The cut-off valve (8) (see figure on page 18) connects the lines L1 and L2 in case of breakdown of the
hydraulic assistance of the front axle steering gear.
This produces the fact that the ZF-Servocom RAS does not co-steer and that no additional actuating
forces are required at the front axle steering gear.

Function

1.3 Function when travelling straight ahead

Operating pressure - front axle steering

System pressure

Accumulator pressure (gas-charged)

! The master cylinder (2) is designed so that the cylinder areas Z1 and Z2 are connected when travel-
ling straight ahead and when the steering angle is less than 5o. This ensures that the four cylinder
areas Z3, Z4, Z5 and Z6 in the centering cylinder (3) are pressurized by the hydraulic accumulator
(4), thus holding the trailing axle in position for travel straight ahead.

 Short-circuiting cylinder areas Z1 and Z2 and centering the trailing axle additionally ensures that the
master cylinder and centering cylinder (3) are synchronized. This compensates any hydrostatic off-
sets which may occur, for example as a result of minute leaks.

System pressure
Accumulator pressure (gas-charged)

! Cylinder space Z7 in the master cylinder (2) is pressurized by the ZF-Servocom or front axle steering
(1) and displaces the piston rod to the right.

 This pressurizes the hydraulic fluid in cylinder space Z1, as well as in cylinder space Z6 via hydraulic
lines (5) if the steering angle is greater than 5o.

 The piston rod of the centering cylinder (3) is consequently displaced to the left and the trailing axle
is steered to the left.

Safety instructions / Maintenance

2 Safety instructions

Attention:

! Lines and connections, etc. must not be opened until the system pressure of the ZF-Servocom RAS
has been relieved.
 The bleeder valves must be opened slowly to bleed the system.
 Note that at least the system pressure is still present in the hydrostatic system even when the engine
has been switched off.
! The front axle steering must not be actuated when connections or lines, etc. on the rear axle
steering system have been opened, since the high resultant pressures may cause injuries.

3 Maintenance

3.1 Maintenance intervals

 The maintenance intervals which apply for the ZF-Servocom steering system or which are specified
by the vehicle manufacturer also apply for the ZF-Servocom RAS.

Note any other or additional intervals specified by the vehicle manufacturer.

3.2 Maintenance work

 Check oil level

ZF-Servocom RAS:

The oil level cannot be checked. This is also unnecessary, since oil cannot be lost during normal
operation and when the ZF-Servocom RAS is in good condition.

ZF-Servocom (front axle steering):

Check oil level in oil tank.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum permitted, this may be due to a leak in the master cylinder.

 Check for external leaks

Hydraulic lines, connections, master cylinder, centering cylinder and hydraulic accumulator must
be visually inspected for leaks.

There must not be any visible leakage. Only the piston rods of the master and centering cylinders
may be coated with a film of oil. The formation of drops is not permissible.

 Check bellows

Check that the bellows is seated correctly and undamaged.

The bellows must not be twisted.
