Traction Circuit: Low Speed
A variable displacement, bi--directional piston pump is
directly coupled to  the engine flywheel  to provide hy-
draulic flow  for  the traction  circuit. The  piston pump
swash plate  movement is controlled  by an electronic
proportional servo assembly.Pushing the traction pedal
rotates a potentiometer that sends a signal to the  ma-
chine TEC--5002 controller. The controller in turn sends
a corresponding PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) output
signal to the  hydrostat electronic control  to rotate the
pumpswashplateaccordinglytocontrolthepump’sout-
put. The oilfromthehydrostat isdirected  tothefrontand
rear wheel motors through the traction, 4WD and trac-
tion flush control manifolds.
Forward Direction
With the low speed range selected and the traction ped-
al pushed in the forward direction, oil from the hydrostat
port MB passes through the traction control valve (see
TractionCircuit:TractionControlinthissection).    Oilflow
fromtraction control valve portM1 drives thefrontwheel
motors in the forward direction and then returns to the
hydrostat. Oil flow from traction control valve port M2 is
routed to the P1 port of the 4WD control valve where it
is directed to the PD1 cartridge and out of the manifold
to drive the rear wheel motors in the forward direction.
Oil returning from the  rear motors re--enters the 4WD
control valve at the M2  port. Flow passes through the
PD2 cartridge, through the  CV check valve, out valve
port P2 and back to the hydrostat.
Operating pressure  on the  high pressure  side of the
closed loop traction circuit is determined by the amount
of load developed at the fixed displacement wheel mo-
tors.  As the  load increases,  circuit  pressure can  in-
crease to relief valve settings: 4330 PSI (299 bar) in the
forward direction and 5330 PSI (368 bar) in reverse. If
pressure exceeds the relief setting, oil flows through the
relief valve to the low pressure side of the closed loop
traction circuit.
To keep the traction circuit  oil properly cooled, a flush
valveisincorporatedintothetractioncircuit.Wheninthe
forward direction, the flush valve spool is shifted by for-
ward pressure and allows a small amount of hydraulic
fluidtobleedoffforcoolingoftheclosedlooptractioncir-
cuit. The charge system replenishes oil that is bled from
the traction circuit due to the flushing valve operation.
Traction circuit pressure (forward and reverse) can be
measured at test ports located on the hydrostat.
When going down a hill, the tractor becomes an over--
running load that drives the wheel motors. In this condi-
tion, the  rear  wheel motors  could lock  up as  the oil
pumped from the  motors increases pressure  as it re-
turns to the hydrostat. To prevent wheel lock up, an ad-
justable  relief  valve (RV)  in  the  4WD  control valve
reduces rear motor  pressure created in down hill,  dy-
namic braking conditions.
The  traction circuit  provides  operation  in  either low
speed (four  wheel  assist) or  high speed  (two  wheel
drive).
The  traction  pump  and  wheel  motors  use  a  small
amount of hydraulic fluid for internal lubrication. Fluid is
designed to leak across the pump and motor parts and
into the component case drain. This leakage results in
the loss of hydraulic fluid from the closed loop traction
circuit that must be replaced. The charge circuit is de-
signed to replace this traction circuit leakage.
Reverse Direction
The traction circuit operates essentially the same in re-
verselowspeedasitdoesintheforward     direction.How-
ever, the flow  through the circuit  is reversed. Oil flow
from the hydrostat port MA is directed to the front wheel
motors and to 4WD control valve port P2. Oil to the front
wheel motors drives them in the reverse direction and
then returns to the hydrostat through the traction control
valve.Oilflowtothe4WDcontrolvalveflowsthroughthe
PR  pressure  reducing  valve  which limits  the  down
stream pressure to the rear wheel motors to 650 PSI(45
bar) so the rear  wheels will not scuff the turf.  This re-
duced pressure flow passes through the PD2 cartridge
andoutportM2totherearwheelmotors.Return      oilfrom
the rear motors re--enters the 4WD control valve at port
M1, flows through the PD1 cartridge, exits the manifold
at port P1 and returns to the hydrostat through the trac-
tion control manifold.
Thegearpumpsection(P3)thatsuppliesoiltothesteer-
ing, lift and cooling fan circuits, also provides charge oil
for the traction circuit. The gear pump is driven directly
off the traction pump.  It provides a constant supply of
charge oil to the traction circuit to make up for oil that is
lost to internal leakage in the traction pump and wheel
motors.  Charge  pump  flow  is  directed  through  the
charge oil filter before entering the hydrostat. This filter
has a  bypass valve that allows  charge oil flow  to the
closed traction loop if the filter becomes plugged.
The charge pressure is limited to 330 PSI (22.8 bar) by
a relief valve located in the hydrostat. Charge pressure
canbemeasured  atthecharge pressure testport (G) on
the hydrostat.
When in the reverse direction, the flush valve spool re-
mains in the unshifted position to  prevent any traction
circuit fluid loss.
