(Difficult as it weighs 20-30 lbs or so and requires a bit of contortions to get to it...) Used plastic to 'cap' the hoses, after marking what went where, disconnected the electrical, (careful, I THINK the battery cut off opened the circuit..), then pulled the pump out. I removed the electric motor, (again, carefully as it has a cam attachment that was no fun to replace..) I then took the pump to a hydraulic repair shop where they redid all the seals. That cost about $100. Reverse the process of removing and it's worked great since. One more thing, if you have any 'bubbling' of your hydraulic lines, now would be a good time to replace them...
Thank you very much. After calling around, I think I am going to have to do the same as you and remove it carefully. I have not been able to find a place to repair it in the Denver metro area yet but still looking.

Thanks!
