What speed do you think is safe on gravel for: passenger car, pickup truck, big trucks hauling hogs hay and cattle? I live 1/2 mile on gravel, north of a primary state blacktop highway. 50 feet north from the highway is a speed limit sign, 55 mph. It seems to me most drivers see that as a challenge to get from zero to 55 in that 50 feet. I saw the dangers when I built my place here, and within a week I had trained my 5 birdogs and Lab to stop and sit within 50 feet of the gravel road.

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
