Abstract

A lock valve assembly is provided in a hydraulic control system for a double acting hydraulic jack which is adapted to permit the desired substantially unrestricted flow of inlet fluid selectively to either end of the jack under all operating conditions and is automatically self-conditioning to either restrict when necessary or not to restrict the flow of outlet fluid from either end of the jack as may be required.
