HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The hydraulic system is of the Load and Flow Sensing type (load sensitive).
Therefore the pump only provides flow when the operator activates one
of the control levers.
When there is no hydraulic demand, the pump consumes a minimum power of the engine and the hydraulic system works more cooled, which reduces fuel consumption.
The F170B grader is also equipped with a closed-centre hydraulic distributor with nine sections of circuits, situated in a protected location and below the operator platform.
This way it is possible to assemble new accessories without the need to add hydraulic sections to the distributor.
