The power steering system of series 1020 and 2020, prior to tractor serial number 45200, is an open center valve type and consists of a separate gear type pump, a valve and steering cylinder and steering linkage. The power steering system of series 1020 and 2020, tractor serial number 45200 and up, is a closed center type having the same basic mechanical components as the earlier open center type. However, the separate gear type pump is not used and the pressurized oil is furnished by the main hydraulic pump via a priority type pressure control valve which is bolted to lower right side of clutch housing.
