All water here goes in our tank. We are no longer allowed to run the washer or bath water out to a dry well or pool. Older homes in the area still do it, but the newer ones cannot and when an older homes system fails they have to run everything into the new system. So far so good here. I have ours pumped about every 10 years or so. My neighbors had a heck of a time years back. Their tank would fill full of paper and then plug the leach pipes in the field. I finally borrowed a backhoe and dug them a new leach field and so far no more problems. Their field was just completely saturated and the ground could not take any more water. The original field only had two leach pipes and they were close together and short to boot with very little gravel under them and none over the top.

I hope it holds out for them.

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
