it has air in it, try to manually extend it and hold it in that position then fill it then lower it, usually that'll bleed the air out

Yeah, don't want to lose the host, then who would coordinate the party? LOL. Couldn't resist.

I think you mean hoist. Anyway, like he said above- bring it up and fill it with fluid up to the fill hole. That should take care of it.
