Operation
When right slew is selected, pressurised oil enters the A1
port of the shuttle block from the remote control valve. The
pressurised oil moves steel ball (a) to the left side and enters
the right slew port of the control valve from the B1 port.
The pressurised oil which enters the A1 port goes passes the
through hole (a) and is led to cavity (a) and moves the steel
ball (b) to the left side and is then dispersed to C1 and
S1 ports.
The return oil from the control valve enters B2 port and
moves the steel ball (c) to the right side and returns to the
remote control valve from A2 port.
