Now, if you feel that, that reservoir is low, make sure all the Jacks are completely up and, all the slides are completely retracted. Then, and only then, you can remove the reservoir cap and check the fluid level. Hope this helps.

Note that there is a least one type of HWH slide mechanism that requires the slide to be out when checking fluid levels. On my 36RD the bedroom passenger-side slide needs to out and all of the others in.
Well Chris,
As usual, learn something every day. Now, what was it that learned from yesterday, and the day before that and.....
Scott
Always learning...
Same on my 40KD. Two slides in, jacks up, one slide out to test level. The info is buried in the HWH owners manual, not clearly marked. Need to look about half-way back through the manual where it shows the diagrams. In my manual its around pg 15, "Hydraulic Line Connections Multi-Room Extensions." Two marked "Retract Room to check oil level" and one marked "Extend room to check oil level." Clear as mud... info buried and of course has no way of telling which slide is connected to which connection on system.
Just about the time I "THINK" I can answer someone accurately and, have the CORRECT (SEAMINGLY) knowledge, and or experience about the subject at hand, I get slapped down 'cause of my not really researching ALL the facts before I open my big mouth or, engage brain to fingers here. Maybe someday I'll get it right.

oh 'pshaw' as they say... If you're not learning, you're just sitting there waiting for time to run out.
I keep all my RV stuff a folder on my PC. Have one marked "Manuals" with all sorts of PDFs from vendors. Have another marked "Misc Maint Notes" with stuff I've gleaned from all these forums. Guess which is larger... yup, the second. Kludges, tricks-n-tips, hidden panels of fuses, secret diagnostic tricks, replacements for obsolete parts, I get something new almost every day. And glad of it...
