I have never changed it fully, but if you loosen the nipple on the steering box ,most of the fluid will drain out. I usually get a syringe and suck out the reservoir to partially change the fluid.
The old tin tanks have a replaceable filter, but the plastic tanks have to be replaced to renew the filter.
Be careful not to run the pump when dry or could be expensive.
