Refilling a floor jack?

Hi guys,
I have one of those all aluminum Snap-On floor jacks and I have no clue how to refill the hydraulic fluid. At least, that's what I think it needs, I've never seen it drip. The problem is that the pump handle has to go all the way to the floor to get the slightest movement. Kinda like a poorly bled brake system. I see a bolt on top that seems to be the fill area but last time I tried doing it I lost more fluid then I put in. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Adam
