1 and 2 Power Cube Operation, 5 Spools Total

Case 1 - One Power Cube to Drive Wheels

Notes: One power cube allows 2 or 4 wheel drive. 2 wheel drive occurs by connecting a pair or motors, either front or rear wheel drive. 4 wheel drive occurs by paralleling the 2 pairs of front and real drive motors. In the configuraion of using a total of only 5 spools, conversion between 2 and 4 wheel drive happens only by unplugging second set of wheels and plugging the hoses into each other for fluid continuity within the disconnected motors.
