I don’t know if anyone has any in stock right now. I ordered my first one from Charles Quick a few weeks back and it arrived in the US in less than a week. I wanted to order another one but looks like he is out.
Naviskelp in Poland is selling the baraki valve which has been the standby choice for quite a while but it looks like he is out as well.
There was a guy on here a week or so ago in the US who is getting some made but sounds like they are not ready yet.
Those are the options I am aware of. You need to find out what kind of steering your tractor has so you make sure to get the correct valve
Hello, I have a 60L Baraki valve installed on a New Holland 7.290 and a 30L Baraki valve on a T7030. Now I’m having the same problem with both tractors: when the 3/2-way valves are de-energized or in road mode, there isn’t enough flow. If I turn the steering wheel quickly, it sometimes locks up completely until I release it. If I turn it slowly, it works fine. Are there any solutions for this?
Did you check for any adjusting flow screws on the side of the block?
Not familiar with these blocks but there are lots out there so you should get a solution
Maybe @Krisu can advise
Seems strange its happening on both installs.
Do yoy have the return going into a free flow return, possibly some back pressure not letting oil flow back quick enough
Does it behave properly when you use autosteer?
When I use automatic steering, everything works perfectly.
When I intervene, it also deactivates. As long as I turn the steering wheel slowly, everything works fine.
However, if I turn the steering wheel quickly, it becomes difficult to turn, or even locks up.
I’ve now tried two 2/2 NO-directional control valves for testing, connecting them in parallel to the O/S valve for the steering. These, along with the 3/2-way valves, switch over so that not all the oil has to pass through the valve block when using manual steering.
Then it works as it should. However, I’m a bit uneasy driving with so many valves.
In my opinion, the 3/2-way valves in the block don’t have a sufficient flow rate.
