The valve is supplied in a closed center configuration
suitable for use in circuits utilizing pressure compensated
pumps. For use in gear pumps (open center) circuits, a con-
version is required. The valve outlet section has a "T" port,
as shown in Fig. 1 with the tank return line plumbed into it.
This internal plug must be removed for open center
operation. The tank return line may then be plumbed into the
port. Be sure to save the hex plug for possible future use.
