Somebody once said "there is no such thing as a silly question," only silly people afraid to ask what they need to know. I'm going to test this theory. My 300U has its hydraulic reservoir under the seat. Near the front edge is a pipe-plug type cover for adding fluid, and attached to the cap is a dipstick a few inches long for measuring "full." Here's my question: Am I supposed to screw the cap in all the way to accurately measure fluid "full" -- or do I measure by just setting the cap in the hole and not screwing it in at all??? There are maybe 3/4" of threads on the cap, so screwing it in might show it "full" while not screwing it in would show it pretty low. My owner's manual is silent on this point. Help please! And thank you in advance. Bob Kirk
