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 - The Fordson F Ignition System - by Anthony West. A fellow restorer contacted me earlier this year asking for some help and advice on a model F that he was restoring. He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
