The hydraulic machine includes a cam and a cylinder block with pistons co-operating with cam lobes, each of which has two ramps extending between top and bottom dead center arcs. The cylinders are connected in alternation to a feed and to a discharge, in sequences separated by switchover stages including an isolation stage during which they are isolated relative to the feed and discharge main ducts. The angular position of the start or of the end of at least one first isolation stage relative to the corresponding dead center arc is different from the angular position of the start or of the end of at least one second isolation stage relative to its corresponding dead center arc, both of these dead center arcs being top dead center arcs or both of them being bottom dead center arcs.
