Where is the hydraulic fluid reservoir on 2015 Ellipse 42QD??

I have a 2015 Ellipse 42QD and one of my leveling jacks won't fully extend. It was suggested on IRV2 to check the fluid level. I cannot find it. I looked in the generator and engine compartments and don't see it. In the engine compartment I see engine oil, transmission, and coolant. In the generator only see windshield fluid. Side compartment has DEF, batteries and fuses. What am I missing?

Mine, not the same model, is behind a small door near the drivers side front wheel.

There are two principles when trying to fix something:

The WAG (Wild A*(&$ guess)
and
the SWAG (Scientifc Wild A##$ Guess - the Scientifc is when one reads the manual)

Sorry, couldn't resist.

(RVM-14) It is what it is, and then it is what you make of it.
