Tom; For all haz mat hauled at one time you are limited to 440 lbs. This includes things like batteries; gasoline; and paint.
So if you had nothing but 5 gallon containers of gasoline you could haul about 12 five gallon cans. 440 lbs divided by 6.5 lbs per gallon (depending on temperature of gasoline) equals 67 gallons. Take off some for can weight.
Gasoline is a packing group III flammable material so it is limited to 8 gallon containers.
Diesel fuel on the other hand is not flammable. It is a combustible. Diesel fuel is not regulated by DOT in packages less than 119 gallons. (bulk containers) Since it is not regulated you can pretty much do as you please (within reason) as long as you keep the container size below 119 gallons. This is why you can have bulk pickup bed fuel tanks for diesel fuel in sizes around 100 gallons.
Yes I have hauled hazardous materials in one form or another my entire career. This includes about 15 years of pulling a 9200 gallon gasoline tanker. I was also a haz mat instructor for DOT compliance training for 1 of the gasoline companies I worked for.

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
