Abstract
A utility vehicle, control system, and method are described to allow relief of hydraulic pressure in a hydraulic system of the vehicle once the source of hydraulic pressure (e.g., pump) is de-energized. In some embodiments, a hydraulic control input is provided and operably coupled to the hydraulic system, and an operator control switch is provided and also operably coupled to the hydraulic system. The operator control switch has at least two positions, wherein pressure within the hydraulic system is relieved when the operator control switch is in a relief position and the hydraulic control input is engaged.
