B. Fluid Change Procedure of the Suction Line of the Blue Electric Pump (Ref. detail B)
NOTE: Make sure that the supply pressure of the ground hydraulic cart does not become more than 50 psi (3.4474 bar).
   (1) Depressurize the reservoir of the Blue hydraulic system (Ref. AMM TASK 29-14-00-614-001).
