In any general application, hydraulic fluid is contained inside a system consisting of pumps, actuators, and hoses. The hydraulic fluid is not actually consumed, except in the case of leaking fluid or a fluid change.

Force that is applied at one point is transmitted to another point using an incompressible fluid. for example a lift cylander on a dump truck
It's all pretty much hydraulic. It will either dump up with cylinders under the bed or it will push the load out the back with a plate that has cylinders behind it. The hydraulics are powered by a pump that's normally run off the pto on the transmission or driven by the crank shaft. The pto is engaged and it turns the pump. The pump sends the fluid to a valve the driver engages. the valve lets the fluid go to the cylinder that pushes the load.
Hydraulic oil and hydraulic fluid are different. Hydraulic fluid is used in small systems such as car brakes. Hydraulic oil is used in large systems such as loaders.
Dump trucks are equipped with a hydraulic piston that raises and lowers the bed. The beds of dump trucks are controlled by a hydraulic pump. There's a good video about the process on YouTube.
There are many places one might go to purchase a 'hydraulic dump bed.' In addition to an official brand website, one might also try purchasing a bed from eBay.
Probably a bad hydraulic release valve. Lowering a dump bed simply requires hydraulic pressure to be bled off.
The cylinder, or ram that tilts the load bed.
dumptruck hydraulic pump is filled from a separate tank installed on truck it is either hanging off chassis rails on side,between dump bed and cab,or it is between rails under neath dump bed. if under dump bed,u can fill with a hose with funnel joined to hose, takes a while to do this . or if truck bed is not loaded you can raise bed with a crane or other machinery ,enuff to get at tank
A hydraulic system can: 1. Lift the bed of a dump truck to dump out the contents. 2. Power all the moving components of an excavator.
At the front of the dump bed, there is a collapsing sectional arm, in which each section collapses into the larger section below it when the bed is down. To raise the bed, the Power Take Off (PTO) is engaged to pump hydraulic oil into the cylinder which contains the sectional armature. The pressure from the hydraulic oil pushes up against these, forcing them up, which, in turn, raises the dump body.
Build a scissor lift and attach to the bed and frame via crossmember. 12 volt dc pump and 3"X10" hydraulic cylinder.
What is the hydraulic oil capacity of the 97' Ford F 800 dump truck with a Heil dump body.
Hydraulic fluid is forced into a collapsing cylinder, which extends it. This pushes up the bed of the dump/tipper truck, causing it to raise. Gravity takes over from there, dumping the commodity out of the bed.
The cylinder which raises the dump body.
If you wanted to increase the capacity then you are probably going to have to purchase and entirely new system. You can't really increase what you currently have.
