Close/Open Center

[RedRocker]

Is a CK 30 hydraulic system a closed or open center?
I have no clue what that is, but CCM want's to know.

You have an open center system. In this system the hydraulic pump is always pumping so the fluid has to have an "open" path from the pump thru any valves and back to the tank/sump. I am surprised Mark Carter did not know this.

BTW, the valve you buy from CCM will need the power beyond sleeve.

Thanks Mad, I've learned my something new for today.
I've got rear remotes, so do I need a valve?

No..
If you have rear remotes the control valves should already be there.
Small handles/levers somewhere beside the seat controls the valves/remotes

That's what I thought, thanks.
