Dave,
Please confirm that you are using the correct (by the book) method for stowing the jacks.
On our Foretravel with HWH kickdown jacks, the correct procedure was to start the engine. Turn on jacks and hit stow. DO NOTHING ELSE-- let it turn itself off-- takes several minutes during which fluid continues to bleed back to the reservoir.
If, for example, you turned off the jacks after the buzzer quit, you would still have quite a lot of fluid in the jacks and lines.
