Well, this started back in July. My Daughter Beth and husband Bob bought a small farm North of Albany NY. When we had a family get together last summer, she asked what they could get for a tractor with $5,000. Well, I went on Craig's list for that area and the best buy that I could find was an AC 160 with shredder and a snowblower. These were the two implements that they needed the most. They bought it and used it a little, including clearing their long drive way once or twice. Last night she called because he was intending to mount the snowblower for last night's storm and the lift wouldn't. I told her that it was ice in the hydraulic system, and to heat it.

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
