A picture of a syringe.

A syringe is a tube with a piston inside it that can be used to take in or push out a liquid through a nozzel.

Syringes can be used to measure and release small amounts of liquid.

A syringe can be used to push a liquid through a hydraulic system.

A syringe can be used to compress a gas in a pneumatic system.

A syringe is a tube with a piston inside it that can be used to take in or push out a liquid through a nozzel.

Syringes can be used to measure and release small amounts of liquid.

A syringe can be used to push a liquid through a hydraulic system.

Any bubbles must be removed from the liquid before reading the volume.
The syringe must be held vertically with the nozzel pointing down and read from 'eye level'.
