what is the proper procedure for servicing the power tilt and trim fluid??? bleeding procedure???

Fished all day friday with no problems, went out today and the trim would not overcome the force of the motor. I can trim the motor out sitting still, as soon as i give it some throttle it bottoms itself back out. It will not raise the motor all the way either, it gets to the point where the other piston should kick in and stops.

Does the fluid need servicing or do i have a bigger problem?

I should add that on friday i ran up on a sandbar, I didn't realize i was shallow and when i went to sit it down it bottomed out and stopped rather abruptly

but it worked fine the rest of that day, i didn't notice a problem until sunday morning, could i have just knocked something loose, or forced air into the system???
