The invention provides a hydraulic chassis engineering machine step control method, which includes testing the current load state of the engineering machine, the opening degree of the throttle, and the actual run speed. The invention judges the current load state, when the load state is intermediate low, and the difference of the actual speed and the goal rotate speed exceeds the preset range, then corresponding current can be provided for the hydraulic motor for regulating the displacement; namely when the actual rotate speed is lower than the goal rotate speed, current for lowering the displacement can be provided to the hydraulic motor; when the actual rotate speed is higher than the goal rotate speed, the current for improving the displacement can be provided to the hydraulic motor; when the load state is in overload, the displacement of the hydraulic motor can be adjusted to the maximum. The required power of the system can be calculated according to the current displacement of the hydraulic motor, the demand of the rotate speed, and the current pressure of the system. Current, the displacement of which can meet the requirement of the controller, is provided for the hydraulic pump according to the required power of the system, and the needed displacement can ensure that the power absorbed by the hydraulic pump can meet the requirement of the hydraulic motor. Compared with the prior art, the invention can enable the engineering machine to realize the control requirement accurately.
