Abstract
A system for operating a work vehicle includes a hydraulic control assembly and a controller. The hydraulic control assembly includes a pump, accumulator, boom hydraulic cylinder, pin hydraulic cylinder, pin control valve, and ride control valve assembly. The boom hydraulic cylinder moves a boom of the work vehicle. The pin hydraulic cylinder moves a pin on the boom. The ride control valve assembly includes a charge valve and discharge valve. The charge valve is in fluid communication with the pump and the accumulator. The discharge valve is in fluid communication with the accumulator and a reservoir. The controller operates the work vehicle in a ride control mode and pin actuation mode. The pin actuation mode includes opening the charge valve with the discharge valve closed, and directing hydraulic fluid through the pin control valve.
