PowerGear Leveling System

Can anyone tell me where the reservoir is for the PowerGear leveling system... on a Fleetwood 08 Providence.
Thanks
I need to add fluid I think

I'm not familiar with the Providence, but in most Fleetwood diesel pushers it is on the right rear side. Mine is behind a bay door at the far right rear.

Has anyone gone through the process to replace the fluid? Owners manual says to replace every 2 years and I am at that point but can't seem to find what the right procedure would be, I assume that the jacks are all retracted first. But do you then take off the cap on the bottom of the resevoir and let it drain and just refill and cycle the jacks?

Thanks, Mike

Not sure these apply. One is for system bleeding, and the other appears to be for system assembly. He was asking for system fluid replacement. JMHO. Robbie

I'm pretty sure they are right... one is for system "bleed" and the other is for system "oil fill".. Isn't that what he is wanting to do? The "fluid" they use is "oil"

Send me a e-mail at rmv096@sbcglobal.net and I will send you a print.

Thanks TedWard1555. But I was looking for what I assume is draining the resevior to replace the fluid. Or is it necessary to do so even though the owners manual says to replace the fluid every 2 years. Has anyone done this or do you take it back to the dealer to do?? Or is it something I shouldn't need to be concerned with? I also understand the "Fluid" is Transmission Fluid.
Thanks,
Mike

if it's this much trouble you might want to have it done by a mechanic, but there are hundreds of documents on their web site and i'm sure you can find the one you are needing.
