I agree with Old, sounds like you are looking at the engine oil fill cap. On a 240, the hydraulics and power steering (if it has the optional power steering) use the same pump and reservior. The pump is mounted to the right side of the engine. The reservior is cast into the clutch housing. On the top left side, right behind the bell housing, you"ll see a plug that takes a 1 1/4" wrench. That"s the fill plug for the hydraulic system. I don"t know what the official oil level is supposed to be, I just keep mine about 3" below the top. The transmission is filled through a plug behind the seat. Once again, I do not know the official method of checking it, but I do know it takes five gallons, so when I got the tractor, I drained it, flushed it, and dumped in five gallons of new oil. Other than engine oil, hyd. oil, and transmission oil, only other fluid you need to check is the coolant.
