Abstract: A hydraulic flow adjuster includes a first hydraulic tank, a second hydraulic tank, and a piston actuator. A first piston operates within the first hydraulic tank and a second piston operates within the second hydraulic tank. The piston actuator adjusts a relative position of the first piston in the first hydraulic tank and a relative position of the second piston position in the second hydraulic tank, such that the relative position of the first piston in the first hydraulic tank is the same as the relative position of the second piston in the second hydraulic tank.
