Abstract

A four-wheel hydraulic drive system for a working vehicle comprising a hydraulic pump, a first hydraulic motor fluidly connected with said hydraulic pump, a pair of first driving wheels driven by said first hydraulic motor, a second hydraulic motor fluidly connected with said hydraulic pump, and a pair of second driving wheels driven by said second hydraulic motor, wherein the drive mode of said vehicle can be switched between a first four-wheel drive mode for substantially equaling the torque of said second hydraulic motor to that of said first hydraulic motor and a second four-wheel drive mode for making the torque of said second hydraulic motor smaller than that of first hydraulic motor.
