A circuit pressure control system for a hydrostatic power transmission having a variable-displacement hydraulic pump driven by a prime mover, a hydraulic actuator for actuating a load and a displacement adjusting mechanism for the hydraulic pump. The hydraulic pump and actuator are connected together in closed or semi-closed circuit, and the displacement adjusting mechanism is actuated by a signal indicative of the operating lever manipulated variable and a signal indicative of the actual displacement of the hydraulic pump to control the speed of the hydraulic actuator. The circuit pressure control system is provided with a sensor for sensing the circuit pressure of the hydrostatic power transmission and generating a signal indicative of the sensed circuit pressure, a device for calculating based on the manipulated variable and circuit pressure signal a hydraulic pump displacement command that causes the displacement of the hydraulic pump to be changed at a maximum rate when the circuit pressure is below a predetermined value and causes the changing rate of the displacement to be reduced when the predetermined value is exceeded thereby, and a device for comparing the displacement command with the actual displacement of the hydraulic pump and producing a signal for decreasing the difference between them and supplying such signal to the displacement adjusting mechanism.
