  • Adjustability: The play caused by normal wear and smoothing due to long-time operation can be corrected on the vehicle by simple adjustment of the sector shaft.
  • Positive Road Feel: The forces actually acting on the steering system can still be felt on the steering wheel, although to a fairly reduced degree. The relation between operating.
  • Steerable even without power: In case of failures in the hydraulic system, e.g. during towing, because of engine failure, the steering can be operated manually upto a certain vehicle size.
