Abstract
A hydraulic system includes a first fixed displacement pump having a first pump output and a second fixed displacement pump having a second pump output. A first actuator requires a first required flow rate to perform a first function. A second actuator requires a second required flow rate to perform a second function. A combined flow control valve is controllable between a first state connecting fluid communication between the first fixed displacement pump and the tank so that only the second pump output is directed to the second actuator, and a second state disconnecting fluid communication between the first fixed displacement pump and the tank to combine the first pump output and the second pump output such that the combined first pump output and the second pump output is directed to the first actuator.
