the torque generator is basically a hydraulic assist motor, like the power steering on a car. it uses either a belt driven pump off the engine, or taps off a live hydraulic pump via a priority flow valve. the behlen usually uses a pump driven off the distributor drive and hoses connect to the torque generator that is spliced in the steering shaft. when the steering wheel is turned one way or the other, hydraulic fluid is diverted in the torque generator to give assist to steering effort. there should be a point in the steering where the torque generator "idles" it neither assists to the left or right, and at that point the front wheels should be pointed straight forward. what i suspect is either the steering shaft on the torque genny was turned, or the tractor front wheels, and the hydraulics are fighting your direction when you turn the wheel. you will need to find the "center point" and then connect the steering shaft in the wheels sraight forward position. i have the char-lynn manuals on my computer at the shop, if you want a copy, shoot me an email and i will forward them to you.
