Question:
how does a hydraulic lift system work ( a lift for lifting cars in an automotive shop)?
i am working with an old single ram hydraulic lift for lifting cars inside an old auto shop, it is i presume an air over hydraulic oil type system.
Answer:
Seattle gets 90% of its Annual Precipitation from November through April. So if you can Imagine it raining TWICE as often in Seattle in the winter- as it does in D.C. all year, -You should have a PRETTY GOOD Idea- what motorcycle Commuting is GOING to be Like- when you get There !! :)
Oh man. Yea I know Seattle riding very well. It sucks. I commuted from Blaine Washington (northwest corner) to Seattle every 2 days by bike and not only is the weather crap, but the traffic is bad. Be very careful on 5, I've been almost wiped out by a few Mercedes there.
In a closed system, The pump pumps the hydraulic fluid into the cylinder, causing the piston to move, being held there by the control valve, when released, the fluid returns to the reservoir, where the fluid is stored, as in a portable situation. In a permanent situation, such as yours the air pressure works as the pump to push the fluid into the cylinder.

A high pressure air compressor forces hydraulic fluid into a cylinder causing the cylinder to rise vertically, thus lifting the vehicle. Releasing the air pressure permits the weight of the vehicle to force the fluid out and the lift lowers.
