To add fluid to a floor jack, first, ensure the jack is fully lowered. Locate the fill plug or valve, usually found on the side or top of the jack. Use a compatible hydraulic fluid, and using a funnel or syringe, carefully add the fluid until it reaches the appropriate level, typically just below the fill hole. Finally, replace the fill plug securely and test the jack to ensure proper operation.
