1.0 Objective
3.0 Background
Identify the hydraulic components below which will be used in this exercise.
5.0 Task
Task 1: Using the given components (Table 1) and layout (Figure 2):
a) Design a schematic circuit which will operate a double acting cylinder for extension
and retraction stroke.
b) Connect components to match the schematic diagram.
c) Draw the hydraulic circuit diagram complete with appropriate symbols.
d) Explain clearly the working principle of the circuit operation.
