IMPLEMENT CARRIER WITH IMPROVED CONTROL OF HYDRAULIC FLUID SUPPLY
An implement carrier comprises an implement hydraulic system (44) adapted to supply hydraulic fluid to an implement (12). The implement hydraulic system (44) comprises an implement circuit (106) via which hydraulic fluid may be pumped to the implement (12) to power the same, and at least one of: a recirculation circuit (110) via which hydraulic fluid may bypass the implement (12), and a controllable variable flow implement hydraulic pump (38). A temperature control system (100) is arranged to compare a measured hydraulic fluid temperature to a minimum temperature of the hydraulic fluid. The temperature control system (100) is arranged to control, when the measured temperature is below the minimum temperature, a recirculation valve (60) to direct the hydraulic fluid pumped by the hydraulic pump (38) through the recirculation circuit (110) and/or the controllable variable flow implement hydraulic pump (38) to reduce the flow of hydraulic fluid pumped thereby.
