Flow combiner PHMV (1) is activated by the machine ECM. Flow combiner spool (6) then shifts to the center position blocking idler pump oil from the drive pump oil in passage (7). The oil from the idler pump then flows to bucket IMV section (8).

Pilot oil then shifts spool (23) and spool (24) upward. Simultaneously, the machine ECM activates idler pump bypass PHMV (16). Bypass PHMV (16) is modulated according to the joystick position. Pump oil is then supplied to passage (9) in main control valve (5) and supplied to bucket IMV section (8) .Drive pump bypass PHMV (15) is not activated by the machine ECM. The oil delivery from drive pump (29) flows through the bypass spool and returns to the hydraulic tank.

Load check valve (27) opens and allows the pump oil to flow to bucket pump-to-cylinder spool (23). The pump oil then flows through valve port (66), and line (4) to the head end of bucket cylinder (2) .Return oil from the rod end of bucket cylinder (2) flows through line (3) to port (61).
