Tilt Cylinder:
This actuator controls the
pivoting of the implement

of the telescoping arm.

Extend Cylinder: This cylinder

extends the telescoping arm. As
shown here, the external cylinder
is mounted inside the square
cross-section arm; it can also be
mounted external to and under
the arm.

Lift Cylinder:
This actuator controls the lift of
the main arm, as it pivots about
its base.

Steering Cylinder:
This is typically a double-rodded
cylinder that connects the steering
linkages to the wheels on either
side of a vehicle.
