- Implement and steering pump
- Combination valve
- Implement control valves
- Cylinders and the circle drive
The implement and steering pump transfers oil from the hydraulic tank to the implement cylinders and the circle drive through the implement control valves. The combination valve provides the priority for the steering circuit. The combination valve also transfers load signals from the implement control valves to the implement and steering pump.

There are eight standard implement circuits on the machine. Seven control valves are for cylinder circuits and one control valve is for the motor that rotates the blade around the drawbar. The hydraulic system can accommodate as many as 14 implement control valves. The individual control valves regulate the operation of each implement. Control levers are used for operating the implement control valves. The control levers are on the operator console. The control valves are on both sides of the steering wheel.
Some of the Motor Graders may have different implements. The number of the control valves in each valve group may vary. When an implement control valve is replaced, use the same part number. Using the same part number will keep the control valve and the cylinder matched.
