Leveling jacks reservoir

Can someone tell me where the fluid reservoir for the leveling jacks is located?
I have a 2011 Fleetwood Southwind 32vs. Also, how do you determine the fluid level
And how much to add. This is a power gear 140-1226 leveling system.

    Run the levelers and listen for the pump motor. The motor is on top of the reservoir

    Normally the reservoir with the pump is located to the middle or the rear of the RV. RETRACT ALL JACKS, remove the fill plug and fill the reservoir until the oil reaches the top or comes out from the fill hole. That's it.

    Mine is mounted on the inside of the frame rail under the slide. I have to put the slide out to get to it(DUMB)...

    Mine is right next to the pump in a compartment on drivers side, about half way back.

    On my 2004 southwind it is almost under the drivers seat or just a little behind it and with the jacks up I fill it as much as I can get into it.

    In my past MH's. I found the reservoir in the right wheel well, up front of the radiator and under the entry step.
    Should say in owners manual.

    Check oil with jacks retracted and slides in if hyd. This way all hyd oil is in tank.
