ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic system for a wheel loader having an implement arranged for elevational and tilting movements relative to a frame of the loader. The hydraulic system includes selectively operable lifting and tilting circuitry for adjusting the position of the implement and a shock absorbing mechanism arranged in combination with the lift circuitry for allowing relative movement between the implement and the frame to provide a cushioning effect which reduces pitching of the loader. To inhibit inadvertent vertical displacement of the implement, the shock absorbing mechanism is responsive to an initial lifting action of the implement. In a preferred form of the invention, the shock absorbing mechanism is responsive to hydraulic conditions indicative of imminent tilting movement of the implement thereby eliminating inadvertent vertical displacement of the implement when the implement reaches a limit of its tilting travel.
