Did my 50 hour hydraulic fluid change about 15 hours ago. When I check the fluid level via the dipstick at the rear, the level is near the upper level mark on one side of the stick and only a little above half way to the upper mark on the OTHER side of the stick. No matter how well I wipe it down, how slow or fast I pull it out etc. it's the craziest thing. Anyone else experience this?

Yup, I use the high mark.

Ain't that strange. I keep it between the two.

I have always thought a gal to much is worst than a gal low.

Thanks for the replies. I'll probably add just a tad more to get it all the way to the top mark. On the other side it will be well withing the safe range.

I only look at one side of the stick, so I haven't had either problem!
