A hydrodynamic machine has a vaned primary wheel and a vaned secondary wheel, which together form a toroidal working chamber filled with a working medium to form a hydrodynamic circuit flow for transmission of a drive moment. One of the two vaned wheels is driven by a drive shaft of the hydrodynamic machine via a rotary axis. The machine further has a side channel pump having a pump impeller with a plurality of pump vanes and a channel running in the circumferential direction of the pump impeller. The pump vanes are arranged in the channel such that when the pump impeller rotates, a delivery effect is generated in the channel such that at an inlet end a suction effect and at an outlet end a pressure effect is generated. The pump impeller is radially mounted, axially moveably and/or angularly tilt ably, rotationally fixedly on the drive shaft.
