You do not have a 1954 Super M. You might have a 1952 or early 1953.
First off make sure that you do NOT have hoses running to a unit located in front of the distributor. What I am about to explain assumes that you do NOT have this live pump. If you do have a live pump, then DO NOT FOLLOW any instructions I list below. Read it for educational purposes only. You will blow something up if you follow my instructions with a live pump installed.
What you have is officially known as the transmission-driven Liftall system. We call it a "belly pump" for obvious reasons.
It's a self-contained system that is driven off the transmission of the tractor. You need to have your foot off the clutch pedal to get pressure. It is not live hydraulics.
There is a fill pipe under the gas tank on the right hand side, in front of the belt pulley on top. Usually there is a dipstick in there, but sometimes they get lost. Sometimes the owner will connect the return from a two-way valve to this pipe.
On the sides, there should be two holes on the left and one on the right (maybe vice versa, I'm working from memory and my head is foggy this morning from lack of sleep). These are all pressure OUT ports. The front port on the left and the single port on the right put pressure out at the same time. The rear port on the left has a short delay.
The lever on the right side is the control for the hydraulics. It should be connected to a rod that goes up to the operator's platform. Pull the rod back for pressure, let it slide to the center for neutral/hold, and push forward slightly to lower.
Your tractor has hoses, so it is likely that someone added a two-way valve. In order for the two way valve to work you need to lock or tie back the control lever on the side of the tractor, then operate the two way valve.

Today's Featured Article - Women and Tractors - Tractor Engine Repair - by Teri Burkholder. One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
