Any lubrication is better than none. Keep grease in bearings by greasing often. For plain bearings, (bushings) a moly (molylebdeum) spelling?? is best. The moly acts like little ball bearings, but if the grease is allowed to dry out the little ball bearings now act as a lapping compound. I am a retired mill mechanic/machinist and one of our engineers explained this to me. I haven't bothered to get a moly grease for my plain bearings though, I just try to grease often.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
