A system for controlling an operation of a hydrostatic circuit of a work machine includes a flush control valve. The flush control valve is configured to be fluidly coupled to the hydrostatic circuit. The hydrostatic circuit is configured to operate in at least two operating modes to supply fluid power to selectively run a plurality of sub-systems of the work machine. In at least one operating mode of the at least two operating modes of the hydrostatic circuit, the flush control valve is configured to move and regulate a flushing flow rate of the fluid to equalize the flushing flow rate with a desired flushing flow rate based on a signal indicative of the at least one operating mode.
