Merlo MF 34.9 CS-CVTronic Hydraulic Oil filler location?

[HardKnocks]

Just had it delivered from the dealer new, but after a few hours got a hydraulic oil warning light then the boom wouldn't lift then a warning beep. Not that's not as much of a problem I've got oil, however, the manual shows a 50mm nut I cannot find, does anyone know where it's located.

The manual is as much use as a chocolate fireguard, the manual gave numerous guides on how to release the drop hitch, however, the method wasn't in the manual for mine, lucky I caught the dealer before the weekend break.

I believe that is under the boom as that looks to be the boom guide pas I’ve circled

Thank you Planttech, luckily the dealer answered this morning. Which appears a little strange place to put the Hydo Oil, if you had a major leak. however, the boom not operating was the low coolant level, strange! I also thought coolant would be part of the PDI check! anyway, even stranger was I needed to put 2 Ltrs to refill, I'd have thought the warning light would kick in at possibly .5ltr or so! BUT, still got a boom not operating at intermediate times, so there must be another fault.
