How to flush power steering fluid through a return line?

Don't want to mix old and new fluid. Not to mention wasting more PSF than necessary. Is there a low pressure return hose I can use? Thanks.

The document, now removed, seemed to be more indicative of a bleed not a flush as i was asking and so was the OP.

So yes I did read the doc
