B. Safety Precautions
(1) Put the WARNING NOTICE(S) in position to tell persons not to pressurize the Green hydraulic system:
Subtask 29-10-00-010-069-A (1) Put the WARNING NOTICE(S) in position to tell persons not to pressurize the Green hydraulic system:
- In the cockpit on hydraulic section 40VU of the overhead panel
- On the ground service panel of the Green hydraulic system.
C. Get Access
(1) Open access door 197CB.
(2) Open the main gear doors (Ref. AMM TASK 32-12-00-010-001).
Subtask 29-10-00-860-056-A (1) Open access door 197CB.
(2) Open the main gear doors (Ref. AMM TASK 32-12-00-010-001).
D. Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
(1) Make sure that the Green hydraulic system is depressurized and put it in the maintenance configuration.
(Ref. AMM TASK 29-00-00-864-001).
(2) Depressurize the reservoir of the Green hydraulic system (Ref. AMM TASK 29-14-00-614-001).
(3) Disconnect the isolation coupling of the Power Transfer Unit (PTU) (Ref. AMM TASK 29-23-00-860-001).
(4) Put the ACCESS PLATFORM 3M (10 FT)- ADJUSTABLE in position at the doors of the main gear.
(5) Put the CONTAINER - HYDRAULIC FLUID RESISTANT in position so that you can drain the hydraulic fluid into it.
4. Procedure(1) Make sure that the Green hydraulic system is depressurized and put it in the maintenance configuration.
(Ref. AMM TASK 29-00-00-864-001).
(2) Depressurize the reservoir of the Green hydraulic system (Ref. AMM TASK 29-14-00-614-001).

(4) Put the ACCESS PLATFORM 3M (10 FT)- ADJUSTABLE in position at the doors of the main gear.
(5) Put the CONTAINER - HYDRAULIC FLUID RESISTANT in position so that you can drain the hydraulic fluid into it.
NOTE: The reservoir and its related pipes contains 30 l (7.9251 USgal) of hydraulic fluid when it is full.
Subtask 29-10-00-680-050-A
A. Drainage of the Reservoir
(1) Take flexible hose 1699GM out from its stowage on the ground service panel of the Green hydraulic system.
(2) Connect the flexible hose to the reservoir drain valve.
(4) Turn the drain valve counterclockwise.
(6) When the reservoir is empty, turn the drain valve counterclockwise and release.
(7) Turn the drain valve clockwise to lock it in the closed position.
5. Close-up(1) Take flexible hose 1699GM out from its stowage on the ground service panel of the Green hydraulic system.
(2) Connect the flexible hose to the reservoir drain valve.
NOTE: It is necessary to use the WRENCH - STANDARD to hold the body of the reservoir drain valve when the flexible hose is connected.
(3) Put the other end of the flexible hose in the container. (4) Turn the drain valve counterclockwise.
NOTE: When you turn the drain valve counterclockwise, no fluid will flow until you push the valve in.
(5) Push the drain valve in and turn the valve clockwise to lock the drain valve in the open position. (6) When the reservoir is empty, turn the drain valve counterclockwise and release.
(7) Turn the drain valve clockwise to lock it in the closed position.

(6) Remove the access platform(s).
(7) Connect the isolation coupling of the PTU (Ref. AMM TASK 29-23-00-860-002).
(8) Remove the WARNING NOTICE(S).
Subtask 29-10-00-410-069-A (1) Disconnect the flexible hose from the reservoir drain valve.
NOTE: It is necessary to use the WRENCH - STANDARD to hold the body of the reservoir drain valve when the flexible hose is disconnected.
(2) Make sure that the flexible hose contains no hydraulic fluid. (3) Put the flexible hose in its stowage on the ground service panel of the Green hydraulic system.
(4) Remove the container.
(5) Fill the Green reservoir with a hand pump (Ref. AMM TASK 12-12-29-611-001), or with a hydraulic service cart (Ref. AMM TASK 12-12-29-611-002).
(6) Remove the access platform(s).
(7) Connect the isolation coupling of the PTU (Ref. AMM TASK 29-23-00-860-002).
(8) Remove the WARNING NOTICE(S).
B. Close Access
(1) Make sure that the work area is clean and clear of tools and other items.
