A tree felling machine has a main pump for operating functions of the machine such as the drive wheels or tracks, the steering, the brakes, and the lifting and extension of the boom, and a separate saw pump for driving the cutting element, for example, a circular disc saw driven by a hydraulic motor. Both pumps are driven by the same prime mover, i.e. the same internal combustion engine, and the power division between the two pumps is determined by the operator and by the hydraulic control system. In particular, a control provided in the cab is controllable by the human operator to limit the maximum power that the saw pump can draw from the prime mover. In addition, the power that the saw pump can draw from the prime mover is limited by a combination of the displacement setting of the main pump, the output pressure of the saw pump, and the pressure exerted on the load by the main pump.
