Jacks are one way cylinders, so must be fully retracted. Hydraulic slides are 2 way cylinders, so probably don't matter if they are in or out when filling.
Jacks should be retracted before filling/topping off reservoir.
My hydraulic slides are the same.....all slides retracted before checking fluid level and filling/topping off.
If I topped off reservoir with slides extended I would be cleaning all of the hydraulic fluid I put in to top off out of compartment.
Don't assume......check manual or with mfg. before topping off.
