OT: '73 Chevy C-30 Dump Truck Hydraulics (again)

Posted by Blue3992 (N Illinois) on July 02, 2007 at 19:49:31 from (172.163.247.18):

Thanks to all for advice on getting a control cable for the hydraulic pump. I called around, and the good folks at Mark's Machine Shop in Sycamore, IL set me up with a control cable and all the hardware.

Now that I got the hydraulics working, how do I check the fluid level, and how do I add fluid? I assume it just takes regular old hydraulic fluid. I couldn't find a fill plug anywhere underneath the truck. When the dump bed was raised, I thought I saw what might be a fill port, but I wasn't about to go climbing under the raised bed.

Any suggestions? If it helps, the pump has a number cast in it--1016495D
