(15) HousingThe main pump consists of drive pump (8) and idler pump (11). The drive pump and the idler pump are contained in an integral housing. Both pumps are variable displacement piston pumps. The drive pump and the idler pump are identical in construction and operation.Supply oil from the hydraulic tank enters inlet port (12). The single inlet port is common to both pumps. The drive pump delivers oil through outlet port (3). The idler pump delivers oil through outlet port (2). The idler pump is supplied oil from the head of pilot pump (10). The pilot pump delivers oil through outlet port (13).Both the drive pump and the idler pump have a regulator as part of the pump control system. The flow control of the pumps is performed by the operation of the regulators. The control system is identical for both pumps.Proportional reducing valve (5) for the power shift pressure is on the head of the main pump. The proportional reducing valve is controlled by the machine ECM. The proportional reducing valve controls the signal from the power shift pressure for both the drive pump and the idler pump.Negative flow control pressure from the main control valve enters the drive pump regulator at port (6). Negative flow control pressure from the main control valve enters the idler pump regulator at port (7).Case drain oil from the pump housing flows from port (9) to the case drain filter.Accessory Pump (If Equipped)

(28) PassageGear (20) of drive shaft (19) meshes with gear (17) of drive shaft (18). Gear (17) and gear (18) have the same number of teeth. Drive shaft (19) of drive pump (8) is connected to the engine by a coupling. When the engine is running, drive shaft (18) and drive shaft (19) rotate at the same speed. Therefore, drive pump (8) and idler pump (11) rotate at the same speed.Pilot pump (10) is directly connected with drive shaft (18).Barrel (26) contains nine pistons (25). Piston slippers (24) are connected to pistons (25) by retainers (23). The piston slippers are pressed against plate (22). Plate (22) lies on swashplate (21). Barrel (26) is splined to drive shaft (19). As drive shaft (19) rotates, the barrel, the pistons, and the piston slippers rotate around swashplate (21).The angle of swashplate (21) determines the length of stroke of piston (25). As the angle of the swashplate increases, the length of stroke of the pistons increases and the output flow of the pump
