MAIN HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The main hydraulic system of the vehicle has three functions: to supply power for control and operation of the boom; to supply
power for control and operation of the hoist and main winches and their internal brakes; and to supply power for control and
operation of the spade.
Hydraulic Oil Tank
Hydraulic fluid from the oil tank (Figure 11) is supplied to the hydraulic system, under pressure, by means of the main hydraulic
pump, which is driven by the mechanical transmission. Through suction, oil passes from the hydraulic oil tank to the main pump
and is pressure-discharged to operate the main hydraulic system.
