I had that annoying alarm, too! My experience:
Low fluid. (Powergear). Added Dextron III. No problem until the next trip. Same thing....added more Dextron III. Then, time for an oil change, and while underneath, looking around, found a puddle of oil in the drivers' side front jack "foot". Contacting POWERGEAR for information, "my" jack had no rebuild kit...and POWERGEAR would not sell ME a replacement jack, I had to go thru a dealer or retailer...so for a bit over an outrageous 600 bucks, got a new jack. At least this replacement has a rebuild kit. (You can buy used jacks on-line...but who knows? Some listed are incomplete! So for me, a new one was the only choice).
Then...in the next 4 months I had to replace two of the four hydraulic hoses. Oil on the ground. One was 7 foot long, the other 30 feet long. One had a hole in it, the other had a "rip" .Local shop made replacement hoses in about 15 minits and I did the work of replacing. Not bad, either.
