    Power Pole fluid change/bleed

    I have 8ft blades on a new to me 2016 Triton. One or both are starting to get loud when deploying my last time out. One reservoir is a little lower than the other. Guessing the fluid has never been changed. Can the experts here break down a fluid change and/or bleeding procedure for me? Also, the quantity of hydraulic fluid I'll need for dual blades....

    Thanks in advance.

    Fluid should be changed every year or so and the filters cleaned. The noise of probably from the screens being plugged

    Happened to me last year and after Youtubing took the splash well cover off and the hardest part was getting to where the pumps are mounted. Cleaned the reservoirs and the screens also replaced oil. Did both while I was in there and no problem or weird noises this year.
