Since the Hydac accumulator is a little bigger in volume,

 

Should we add a little extra brake fluid to the reservoir to compensate?

 

Maybe we can get an extra pump or 2 from the brake pedal before the pump comes on, with a little extra brake fluid?

...Run the brake fluid check and add if necessary.

What he said :)  The amount in the reservoir has no effect on the reserve in the accumulator. I have a Hydac and when in good shape, it drops the fluid just a little over 5/8". Little different than a standard ball at half charge.
