A swash-plate, plunger-type hydraulic pressure apparatus, which may operate as a hydraulic pump or motor, includes a cylinder block, an annular array of plungers slidably held in the cylinder block, a swash plate, a plurality of shoes angularly movably coupled respectively to the ends of the plungers, and a retainer plate mounted adjacent the swash plate and holding the shoes in slidable contact with the sliding surface. The shoes have respective annular grooves defined in the outer cylindrical surfaces thereof. The retainer plate has a plurality of shoe holding holes defined therein and a like plurality of cutout openings extending from the holes. The shoe holding holes communicate with one of outer and inner circumferential edges of the retainer plate through the cutout openings, respectively. The cutout openings have a width slightly larger than the outside diameter of the annular grooves, whereby the annular grooves can be inserted into the shoe holding holes, respectively, through the cutout openings.

A hydraulic motor and a hydraulic pump are interconnected by a closed hydraulic circuit. A lubricating chamber is defined around the sliding surfaces of the swash plate and the plungers of at least one of the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor. A shuttle valve has two input ports connected to respective oil passages, the shuttle valve being shiftable to connect the one of the oil passages which is of lower oil pressure to the output port of the shuttle valve when the differential pressure between the oil passages is relatively large. A first relief valve is opened to communicate the output port to the lubricating chamber when the oil pressure in the output port exceeds a first pressure level. A second relief valve connected between the first relief valve and the lubricating chamber is opened when the oil pressure between the first relief valve and the lubricating chamber exceeds a second pressure level lower than the first pressure level.
