A work vehicle with a hydrostatic steering system is disclosed which is
capable of performing optimum control of the absorption torque of a
hydraulic pump according to running load; capable of preferentially
ensuring turning performance and implement speed when running load is
relatively low; and capable of ensuring desired turning performance even
when running load is relatively high. To this end, a bulldozer with a
hydrostatic steering system, wherein the power of a hydraulic motor
driven by pressure oil fed from a hydraulic pump operated by an engine is
transmitted to right and left crawler tracks through a differential
steering means composed of planetary gear trains etc., is designed to
control the absorption torque of the hydraulic pump according to the
speed ratio of a torque converter calculated by a speed ratio operation
unit.
