Steve thanks for clearing up my questions. When winter does finally set in, I am going to pull the batteries and put them on tenders. I already have 3 new HF tenders, I'll use them since I have them. I didn't get much done to the lift today. I put the battery charger back on the batteries. It only charged 10 or so minutes. I really don't know when it kicked off , as I was filling the first tire. I did check/air the all the tires up. Then check the H fluid, I had already put 5 gal. in the lift. I added almost 4 more today. I then replaced the rubber mat that was on top of the batteries with a new one. The rubber mat is to keep the batteries from shorting out when the steel battery cover is put on. I did not try to start the lift before or after I put the charger on. So, I lost right at 9 gallons of hydraulic fluid when the cylinder blew. I still need to work/extend all the H cylinders. I needed to make sure the tire presure was right, before getting to Wacko with the the lift. Leverage is a great and dangerous thing with these machines. Thanks Steve/everyone...MTP

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. 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
