A good 12v battery will have a charged voltage between 12.4 and 12.6 volts. If the tractor is running, the voltage at the battery (charged battery) should be between 14.2 and 14.7 volts. If the battery goes dead when it is shut off, checking the alternator includes removing the wire from the big post and tapeing it up so it can't short to anything. If the battery still goes dead, also disconnect the wire from the ignition to the Alt or regulator. If it discharges then it is not the alternator, as it is isolated. If it is a "one wire alternator" it has a good chance of being at fault. They are not standard Delco, they have a different regulator inside that is always on to some degree. This drain is big in some of them, and quite small in other one wires. I recomment=d a 3 wire "normal" Delco 10SI to eliminate this drain. Jim

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
