Didn't know these existed. But I bet when tractor tires were introduced in the 30's, there was a big issue on airing them up. My grandfather had a car long before a rubber tired tractor. Also a truck together with his brother. But, I am guessing they just had a hand pump for those tires. Probably wouldn't of worked for a rear tractor tire. Especially one that was leaking. Always wondered what they did. Grandpa had an electric air pump when I came along. Worked much like a hand pump. Hook hose up to valve stem, and plug her in.

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
