Zusammenfassung:A reverse over-ride system is provided for a mower traction drive having a front pair of hydraulic traction motors and a rear pair of hydraulic traction motors. Each motor is operable in a forward direction or a reverse direction, and each front motor is in series with a rear motor. The system includes a solenoid operated valve connected to each rear motor. Each solenoid operated valve has a first position in which a check valve opens to allow recirculation through the rear wheel motors while the mower operates in a forward turn, and closes to disallow recirculation so the rear wheel motors may build pressure and drive during hill climbing. Each solenoid operated valve has a second position allowing free rotation of the rear motor while the machine operates in a reverse direction. A mechanical or electronic linkage is provided between the reverse pedal and solenoid operated valves.
