Abstract

A motor displacement control system (10) has a variable displacement drive motor (38), an auxiliary motor (30), a source (12) of fluid under pressure for operating the motors (30, 38), a first valve (50) for controlling the displacement of the drive motor (38) and maintaining at least a first pressure level thereto, and a second valve (98) for controlling the displacement of the drive motor (38) in response to operation of the auxiliary motor (30) at a second pressure level and overriding the first valve (50). The system is particularly useful on a motor grader.
