I would try to drain it by finding and removing the drain plug at the bottom of the tank. Then maybe flush it with a couple quarts of new oil. Make sure the mast is down all the way so there is no extra oil in there. You don't need to add gallons to flush it. There is no need to bleed anything, just put the new oil in and run the mast up and down and tilt back and forth.
