designed so back wheels on ground,, first off. the rear cutting height is set by the rear wheels and they help the shredder run over uneven ground with out scalping.
second.. top link set so shredder is level, but no slack in the top link. so that when you lift it, the rear will raise higher so it does not hit the drive shaft and ruin it.
After this... the shredder should be run normally level...
if heavy grass, run the shredder slightly high in front, so the front will cut it first and the rear being lower will cut it again. this will take more power as your cutting it twice but will clean better.

Again, if everything normal, run it level, with rear wheel setting the cutting height, the front raised up to match, and the top link having the slack taken out...
running with back wheels off ground, over rough terrain, will eventually break welds and joints on the shredder especially the larger ones due to the weight of the shredder bouncing against its frame support at the front only. rear wheels on ground means shredder weight is supported from the front and the rear and weight is cut in half on the supports. dual rear wheels even move share the load when one if off the ground the other still supports the rear.

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
