Power steering pump

Can anyone show me where the bleed screw is on the power steering pump.
Thanks,
Maurice

AFAIK there is no bleed screw - purging air is done by slowly turning the wheel lock to lock a few times with engine running.

If there was a bleed screw, it would be on the steering gear (box). Some systems have that.

I think we have it on the steering box, way up there.
