3-Sucti on port (from res ervoi r)The pump i s a vari abl e dis placement, vane t ype pump which s uppl ies t he required hydraulic pres sure t o the st eeri ng gearvalve unit . The pump is locat ed at t he front of t he engine and i s dri ven by the Front Engine Auxil iary Dri ve (FEAD) Poly Veebelt which i s direct ly driven from the cranks haft . The out put from t he pump i ncreas es proporti onall y wi th the l oad appl iedt o the st eeri ng val ve uni t. A s el f-adjus ti ng tens ioner is fit t ed to maint ai n t he correct t ens ion on the bel t.
The pump consi st s of a cart ridge s et which cons is t s of 11 vanes and a rot or. These are mount ed on t he input s haft and ares urrounded by a variable di spl acement cam ring. The vanes rotat e wit hin the cam ri ng and are driven by t he s haft. As thevanes rotat e, the cam ri ng caus es the space between t he vanes to increase. This causes a depres si on between t he vanesand fl uid i s drawn from t he res ervoir vi a t he suct ion hos e int o t he s pace between the vanes. As t he s haft rotat es , t he inl etport i s clos ed to the vanes which have drawn in fluid, t rapping t he fluid bet ween t he vanes . The cam ring caus es t he s pacebetween t he vanes to reduce and cons equenti ally compress es and pres s uri zes t he hydrauli c fl ui d t rapped between t hem.Furt her rotat ion of t he s haft moves the vanes t o the out let port . As t he vanes pas s t he port plat e, the pres s uri zed fl ui dpass es from the pump out let port into the press ure hose to the s t eering gear.
The cam ring can move wi thi n t he val ve body. By moving the cam ri ng it i s poss ibl e to vary t he eccentricit y of t he s haftand t he vanes i n rel ati on to the cam ri ng. As t he eccent rici ty i s decreased, t he volume of hydraulic flui d t rapped bet weent he vanes decreases , mai nt aining a cons t ant flui d output. This reduces t he power and torque required to turn t he pumpand t herefore improves engine economy. The pump has an int ernal regulati ng valve which controls t he eccentricit y of t hecam ring and t herefore vari es the flow rat e accordi ng to demand.
At low engi ne s peeds , the i nternal dis placement of the vari able di spl acement pump i s at it s maximum t o generate thecont rol led fluid out put. As t he pump s peed increas es wit h engine s peed, t he i ncreas ed flow ins ide t he pump generates aback press ure wit hin the pump. This back pres s ure causes an internal regul ati ng val ve to move t he the cam ri ng andreduce t he int ernal di spl acement of the pump to maint ian t he cons t ant flui d fl ow from the pump.

12. During the inflation, switch the
compressor off briefly to check the tyre
pressure using the gauge mounted on the
compressor.
• It should not take longer than seven
minutes to inflate the tyre. If after seven
minutes the tyre ha s not reached the
minimum pressure, the tyre should not
be used.
13. Once the tyre has been inflated switch off
the compressor. If desired the engine may
be turned off after the compressor has
been turned off.
14. Remove the power connector from the
auxiliary power socket.
15. Remove the inflation hose from the tyre
valve by unscrewing it as quickly as
possible (anti-clockwise).
16. Replace the inflation hose protective cap,
and the tyre valve cap.
17. Do not remove the sealant bottle from the
receiver.
18. Ensure that the tyre repair kit (including
the bottle, and receiver caps) are placed
securely in the vehicle. You will need to
use the kit to check the tyre pressure after
3km (2 miles) so ensure they are easily
accessible.
19. Immediately drive the vehicle for 3 km (2
miles) to allow the sealant to coat the inner
surface of the tyre and form a seal at the
puncture.
†When pumping the sealant through the tyre
valve, the pressure may rise up to 6 bar (87
lb/in²). The pressure will drop again after
approximately 30 seconds.
Checking the tyre pressure after a repair
1. Drive the vehicle for 3 km (2 miles) then
stop in a safe place. Carry out a visual
examination of the tyres condition.
2. Remove the protective cap from the
inflation hose.
3. Screw the inflation hos e connector firmly
onto the tyre valve.
4. Read the tyre pressure from the gauge.
5. If the pressure of the sealant filled tyre is
above 1.3 bar (19 lb/in²) adjust the
pressure to the correct value. See
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS (page 194).
6. Ensure that the compressor switch is in
the off position ( O), and insert the power
cable connector into an auxiliary power
socket. See AUXILIARY POWER
SOCKETS (page 110).
7. If the vehicle is in a well ventilated area,
start the engine.
8. Switch on the compressor ( I), and inflate
the tyre to the correct pressure.
WARNINGS
When driving the vehicle, if you
experience vibr ations, abnormal
steering, or noises, re duce speed immediately.
Drive with extreme caution and reduced speed
to the first safe place to stop the vehicle.
Visually examine the tyre, and check it's
pressure. If there are any signs of damage or
deformity to the tyre, or the tyre pressure is
below 1.3 bar (19 lb/i n²) do not continue
driving.
Consult a tyre repair centre, or your
Land Rover Dealer/Authorised repairer
for advice concerning the replacement of a
tyre after using a tyre repair kit.
