Power Steering Bleed

And now for something completely different . . . anyone know the procedure for bleeding Merc power steering system? Any assistance appreciated.

I am not an expert but I think the system will self bleed. I had to reseal a steering fitting, I lost about a pint of fluid when I disconnected it. I fixed the fitting, fired it up and topped off the fluid in the reservoir. Done!

Fill to full mark, DO NOT START MOTOR! Turn stearing wheel full cock left to right 5 times briskley,check fluid level, then start,If it does clear repeat step 1.check fluid after!
