Hydraulic fluid in Jack

Hydraulic fluid in Jack
I just bought a Hudson Freight High Position motorcycle lift. Looks really good and all. The last step is to bleed and refill the jack. No instructions (or at least poor instructions) on how to do this. I've attached pictures of the jack. The instructions say to remove the oil plug, which I believe is a rubber plug that I am afraid to pull too hard on because it looks like it could just break. It says to turn the release valve clockwise. Doesn't say how much. Finally, I just removed it and fluid started to pour out. Now I don't know where to put in the new fluid and how to know when it's full.
Does anyone have one of these and can you walk me through the process? OneFour

I don't buy from HF so I'm not sure about that jack in particular but this should help.

Bought my HARBOR (NOT HUDSON) freight lift 7yrs ago, still have and it works as new.
Its yellow, not red like Urs, its the same lift that Sears and others sell.
Just checked the HF site and I don't see it listed.
Just checked for Hudson Freight and No such site.
Ur pics of Ur lift don't look anything like the one I have.
so I have no Idea what U have..
Other than that here's some link that show and tell U how and what to do.
If they don't work, take the sucker back and ask some ????
