Is a hydraulic jack a hydraulic or pneumatic system?
Hydraulic , the jack uses fluid under pressure to raise the cylinder , releasing the pressure allows the cylinder to retract. Pneumatics is a similar concept using air pressure.
How does the valve reservoir and pump function on a hydraulic cylinder jack?
the pump supply's the pressure, the resivoir supply's the fluid, the valve dirercts the fluid into the cylinder, to extend or retract the cylinder.
How do you drain hydraulic fluid from a hydraulic floor jack?
Remove screw that lowers jack
How do you put fluid in hydraulic Jack?
Open the drain screw that holds the body of the hydraulic jack. This way you can addhydraulic oil to the hydraulic jack.
How hydraulics are developed in car jacks?
Hydraulics in car jacks work on the principle of Pascal's law, which states that pressure applied to a fluid in a confined space is transmitted equally in all directions. A car jack uses a hydraulic system consisting of a pump, cylinder, and piston. When the pump handle is operated, it forces hydraulic fluid into the cylinder, which causes the piston to move and lift the car. The hydraulic system allows for the multiplication of force, enabling the car jack to effortlessly lift heavy vehicles.

What makes a floor jack stay up?
A scissor jack uses a fine threaded screw and mechanical advantage to lift a vehicle. A hydraulic jack uses hydraulic fluid, a pump, and a cylinder to lift the car.

What are in jacks?
This is a very general question. I am familiar with hydraulic or "bottle" jacks, and I think this is what your question is about. Hydraulic jacks have a pump to force hydraulic fluid into a hydraulic cylinder, which forces it to extend. This action is what raises whatever load you place it under. The fluid is usually pretty specific to the jack. Go to your local hardware store and ask for hydraulic jack oil. I have seen people use transmission fluid in a pinch (way out on the farm, miles from the store).
Why you use hydraulic jack oil only?
designed for hydraulic jack perhaps power steering fluid would work Brake fluid Ruins pump
Can you use transmission fluid in a hydraulic jack?
No, use only the appropriate fluid or the jack may fail, killing you.
Would 80w90 gear oil work in a hydraulic jack?
No. Only hydraulic oil can be used in hydraulic jacks. Hydraulic oil is compressed (a requirement for use in hydraulic cylinders) so that there are no air or other gases dissolved in it. Before adding hydraulic fluid to the jack, be certain that the fluid has been sitting for at least 24 hours to avoid introducing air into the hydraulic fluid in the chamber.You should be able to purchase hydraulic oil (sometimes it will be labeled "Hydraulic Jack Oil/Fluid or Jack Oil/Fluid) in small or large quantities, inexpensively, at any auto parts store worthy of the name. It can also be purchased at some Walmarts and any heavy equipment supply stores.
How do you tell if hydraulic jack needs fluid?
Remove the fill plug and top it off with hydraulic oil.

How does the hydraulic cylinder jacks function?
There is no such thing as "hydraulic cylinder jacks". Hydraulic cylinder is different from hydraulic jacks. A hydraulic cylinder is a linear actuator used for converting fluid energy to an output force in a linear direction for performing various jobs. These include: pulling or pushing in engineering applications such as in machine tools, earth moving equipments, construction equipments and space applications. Jacks are portable devices used for raising heavy objects by means of force applied with a lever or screw. The hydraulic jacks are compact and lightweight units that are used for lifting capacities. They offer easy operation and are fast acting components. The hydraulic jacks come with inbuilt release pedal for rapid lowering and lugs that make it easy to mount. The heavy duty chassis prevents the jack from twisting or bending and foot pump provides fast lift to the load. It also has a safety overload valve that prevents overloading beyond rated capacity.
