Summary:A method for operating a hydraulic actuator for a prime mover or a drive device of a vehicle includes determining that the hydraulic actuator is to be actuated via an actuating system and detecting an operating variable influenced by a filling state of the hydraulic actuator indicative of pressure conditions in the hydraulic actuator, with the operating variable being separate from actuator operating variables of the hydraulic actuator and the actuating system. The method further includes pressurizing the actuator during a fast fill phase to one or more pressures over a fast fill time period in response to determining that the hydraulic actuator is to be actuated. The fast fill time period and the one or more pressures are adjusted as a function of the operating variable under certain operating conditions. Additionally, the method includes pressurizing the actuator during a pressure build-up phase after the fast fill phase.
