heh, not much in the way of help as far as instructions...

it's very straightforward though...

Rotate drive belt tensioner clockwise to release belt tension,
disengage belt from p/s pump pulley
disconnect pressure and return hoses
remove mounting bolts and pump

reverse...

then bleed by having car running and moving steering wheel back and forth - stay at each lock for 2-3 seconds, then turn back...
