thanks guys for the heads up on having the slides in and jacks up--also something I wouldn't have considered, tho possible something DH would have. no, I'm sure he wouldn't have added more fluid prior to leaving. come time for pre-flight, I'm usually it, and a nag about tires that appear low. we were trying to hit the road--not wholly his fault.
You want the slide/s EXTENDED and the Jacks retracted to check the fluid level. HWH has 2 versions of fluid level for slides. But, MOST will want the slides extended. Below is from HWH. Doug
Should my jacks and rooms be retracted to check fluid level?
The leveling jacks should be fully retracted to check the fluid level. There are different types of room mechanisms and some should be retracted and some should be extended. It is ok to check the level with all rooms retracted but do not over fill the tank if you are not sure of the correct room position to check fluid level. Refer to your HWH owners manual or contact HWH for specific information
