I disagree on both accounts.
To wire up an ammeter, you install it in the wire running from the battery (or starter lug) to the box on the steering post.
A voltmeter is a whole separate additional circuit. It needs to be "switched" so you don't just run the battery dead when the tractor isn't running. Way more complicated. Not complex, but more complicated.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power.
