Hi all! I have to change the high pressure hose on the pump. I am sure that the entire system above that joint will leak out when that line is opened. Making a big mess. Are there any tricks to draining this out to keep the mess minimal? Thanks, Jim

I used 5 gal. buckets and a drill powered pump ,might need to put some kinda weight on the suction side of the pump hose to get it to say on bottom of tank. worked well for me.
