Xa ukhetha i-cylinder, sinokukhetha kubukhulu bamandla okukhethwa kobubanzi be-cylinder. Gqiba ukutyhala kunye nokutsala amandla aphumayo nge-cylinder ngokobungakanani bamandla omthwalo. Ngokuqhelekileyo, amandla e-cylinder afunwa yibhalansi yethiyori yomthwalo wangaphandle ekhethiweyo, kwaye amaxabiso ahlukeneyo omthwalo akhethwe ngokwezantya ezahlukeneyo, ukwenzela ukuba amandla okukhutshwa kwe-cylinder abe nomda omncinci. Ukuba i-diameter ye-cylinder incinci kakhulu, amandla aphumayo awanelanga, kodwa ububanzi be-cylinder bukhulu kakhulu, okwenza izixhobo zibe zininzi, ukwandisa iindleko, ukwandisa ukusetyenziswa kwegesi, kunye nokuchitha amandla. Kuyilo lwesakhiwo, indlela yokwandisa amandla kufuneka isetyenziswe kangangoko ukunciphisa ubungakanani bangaphandle be-cylinder.

I-stroke yepiston inxulumene nesiganeko sokusetyenziswa kunye nokubetha kwesixhobo, kodwa ngokubanzi i-stroke epheleleyo ayikhethwanga ukukhusela ipiston kunye nentloko yesilinda ukuba ingangqubani. Ukuba isetyenziselwa i-clamping mechanism, njl., umda we-10-20 mm kufuneka wongezwe ngokwe-stroke ebalwayo.

Ikakhulu ixhomekeke kwigalelo elicinezelweyo lokuhamba komoya we-cylinder, ubungakanani be-cylinder yokungenisa kunye nokukhupha izibuko kunye nobukhulu bobubanzi bangaphakathi bombhobho. Kuyimfuneko ukuba ukunyakaza kwesantya esiphezulu kufuneka kuthathe ixabiso elikhulu. Isantya sentshukumo yesilinda siqhelekile ukuba yi-50～800mm/s. Kwiisilinda ezihamba ngesantya esiphezulu, umbhobho omkhulu wokungena ngaphakathi kufuneka ukhethwe; kutshintsho lomthwalo, ukuze ufumane isantya esicothayo nesizinzileyo esishukumayo, ungakhetha isixhobo se-throttle okanye i-cylinder yokudambisa i-gas-liquid ukufezekisa ulawulo lwesantya. Xa ukhetha i-valve ye-throttle ukulawula isantya se-cylinder, nceda uqaphele: xa i-cylinder ifakwe ngokuthe tye ukutyhala umthwalo, kuyacetyiswa ukuba usebenzise umgaqo wesantya se-throttle exhaust; xa i-cylinder ifakwe ngokuthe nkqo ukuphakamisa umthwalo, kuyacetyiswa ukuba usebenzise ukulawulwa kwesantya se-throttle intake; ukuphela kwe-stroke kuyadingeka ukuba uhambe kakuhle Xa uphepha impembelelo, i-cylinder enesixhobo se-buffer kufuneka isetyenziswe.
