Some BASIC hydraulic questions

I just mounted a saginaw 3pt and two way hyraulics on my H (via IH christmas tree valve). Installing all of this has got my mind thinking about some basic hydraulic principles. Can you guys help me with this question?

I know that the bigger the cylinder is, the more it will lift at lower pressure (right?). Does the same hold true if you T the line and mount 2 cylinders? I have two 2inch prince hyraulic cylinders on mine.

I know that you can't expect the liftall pump to work fast, and mine is pretty slow. Do I have to bleed it? I thought that since it was two way that it would bleed itself. (but I have been wrong plenty of times before!)

THANKS!!!

The pump takes its supply from the the sump inside the Liftall housing so no bleeding or priming is required for the pump. However, you will get erratic (jumpy) operation for a few cycles of the cylinder until the air is mostly gone. It is safer for the equipment if you can cycle your new 3-point without a heavy load on it at first.

The lifting power is the hydraulic line pressure X the area of the lift piston. Two identical cylinders in parallel WILL lift twice as much as one cylinder, at 1/2 the speed, because the area exposed to a given hydraulic pressure is doubled with the 2 cylinders.
