Dick--
The access to the tank is through a port near the top; you remove the plug with an Allen key. If you are lying on the ground and wipe the top of the container it is pretty easy to see.
According to the RVA instructions, the top-off procedure is to put any of the jacks down around 6" and then fill the reservoir up to the point where the alarm stops. The "low fluid" alarm is the same "ding ding" you hear as a warning when the jacks are down. Sometimes if you make a turn quickly you might hear the ding once or twice as the fluid sloshes about. The level is a bit finicky; I get an occasional ding from sloshing and it occurs more often when the weather is cold and the fluid volume has contracted. I'm sure I could add a little, but I'm not in the mood at the moment.

I had been told that the correct spec for the hoses is 5,000 psi. Someone on the forum will be able to verify if this is correct. Yours may have been replaced, but the person doing the repair may not have known that the original hose was under-rated. Five thousand psi hose is not cheap; the cost of parts alone for both hoses was more than $400.
If you do have them replaced, I suggest doing so at a truck repair facility. A friend of mine had his repair done at an RV dealer and it cost more than twice as much as mine did. I paid ~$1,000 to diagnose and resolve the problem.
