Steps to remove tilt and trim

[Span 24]

I want to remove the tilt/trim motor/pump unit from my 03 Starcraft/Volvo-Penta SX-M Outdrive and would like some advice on removing and replacing it with a new unit. I have attached a picture of the current unit but believe that it is not the original.

I have the electrics disconnected as well as the mounting screws. I only have to disconnect the hydraulic lines and remove the unit.

Do I need to take any special precautions when disconnecting the hydraulics?

Is a bleed required after the new unit is installed?

Any help is appreciated!
