You need to buy the operator manual for your tractor. It is the basic manual for any tractor owner. It details all of the features, and how they work. It details all of the fluid requirements, places to check, capacities, etc. You mention power booster....I think you are referring to "Traction Booster". No, that has nothing to do with your issue, but the op manual will explain what TB is for and how to use it.
 
The hydraulic dip stick is on the right side of tractor between engine and transmission under fuel tank. I think you check with lift rams collapsed.
 
I second the manual purchase. Also, google rules of punctuation, makes things ever so clear, and less confusing.
 
Yes, the dipstick to the left of the shifter is for checking hydraulic oil. If the tractor is cold, go by the mark nearest the bottom of the dipstick; if the tractor has been running and is still warm, go by the upper mark on the dipstick. I just had to add some hydraulic oil to my D-17 Series III today. Total capacity is just under 10 gallons; mine was about 2.5 gallons low. It wouldn"t lift the front loader more than 6-8 feet. Works fine now.
