Hydraulic Jack Basics

Hydraulic jacks have 6 main parts:

  1. Reservoir: To hold hydraulic fluid
  2. Pump: To pressurize the fluid and move it to the cylinder
  3. Check Valve: A one way port, allowing fluid to go through to the cylinder
  4. Cylinder: Holds the pressurized fluid
  5. Piston and rod: These are in the cylinder, when the pressurized fluid is introduced it displaces the piston and rod and the moving begins
  6. Release Valve: The bypass valve that allows the pressurized fluid to be released back into the reservoir
