SUMMARY<br />

You have now completed Segment Two and are making good<br />

progress. Before you take a break I will remind you of the aims of<br />

this Segment.<br />

These were that you should now be ab|e to:<br />

• Calculate forces produced by the application of hydraulic<br />

pressure.<br />

• Calculate the speed of response of an actuator.<br />

• Explain how the speed of response is controlled.<br />

In completing these aims you have also partly achieved<br />

Objective No. 3 on page xiii. This will be completed in Segment<br />

Three where we will look at hydraulic pumps and motors in<br />

detail.<br />

This has been a shorter segment but still<br />

break at this point is well earned.<br />

an important one and a<br />
