Hydraulic Systems are the foundation of
how this build design functions. Follow the
steps below to connect and fill cylinders to
create your own hydraulic system.
Please note: in order to work properly,
there can be no air bubbles in the
cylinders or tubes.
Cut tubing into the following lengths:
One 60cm (23″)
One 85cm (33″)
One 115cm (45″)
Fill the five 14mL cylinders and one
4.5mL cylinder with water by pushing
the piston all the way in and
submerging the tip under water;
pull back to fill completely with water.
Remember: no air bubbles
Quick Tip
Use food coloring
to make seeing
the water easier.
Attach the cut tubing pieces from
Step 1 to four of the filled cylinders
from Step 2.
Connection
Close-Up
Over a cup, push the cylinder piston to
completely fill the tubing with water.
Remember: no air bubbles
Attach the water filled tubing to the
remaining water filled cylinders from
Step 2.
Insert a
1/4
″ cylinder screw into the hole
next to the cylinder’s tip to prevent the
tubing from disconnecting.
