Abstract
In the oil pressure system, a control unit sets a flow passage changeover valve to be in a merging state, and sets a relief pressure to a low relief pressure via a relief pressure changeover unit in the case that the rotational speed of the engine is lower than a predetermined threshold level. Also, the control unit sets the flow passage changeover valve to be in a branching state, and sets the relief pressure to a high relief pressure via the relief pressure changeover unit in the case that the rotational speed of the engine is the predetermined threshold level or higher.
