I just re-installed my alpha and trim cylinders. Everything was completely drained.
The trim pump won't pump. I have it filled with oil, the hoses are currently disconnected just to test it. It makes a whine noise when I hit the switch but nothing comes out. Is there a trick to getting this thing primed?

OLYSAN,i just had the same thing,i replaced the lines from the pump all the way back.the pump is high pressure,low volume,it takes a while to get the oil threw the lines,keep trying,it worked for me.
