Flushing hydraulic fluid?

Posted by Brent in IA on August 12, 2013 at 08:08:39 from (70.197.202.2):

Not strictly Farmall related except I pull it with a Farmall...
I recently acquired a hydraulic dump trailer that my uncle no longer needed - and I did.... It hasn"t been used for quite a few years and I want to change the hydro fluid. It has both a DC-powered hydro powerpack as well as the ability to connect to hoses to a tractor"s hydraulics if desired. I know I can drain and refill the resevoir but how do I get the cylinder and hoses cleared out - do I have to remove the hoses from the cylinder and drain it like that? It is a heavy version of a normal barge-wagon hoist but is a 2-way cylinder.
