1. A pump driving method comprising:
driving a motor based upon a horse power command value using a discharge pressure-discharge flow characteristic;
carrying out feedback control of a discharge pressure;
driving a pump using the motor;
defining a predetermined value of a set horse power as a characteristic value for a predetermined value of a power voltage, the discharge pressure-discharge flow characteristic being represented by a curved line based on the set horse power on pressure axis and flow axis; and
changing the curved line with the set horse power that is corresponding to a detected value of the power voltage to change the horse power command value.
