If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

I'd undo the pipes that have to come off and let it run out into a bucket. 
You could use an oil syringe to suck the reservoir empty if you like.
Don't run the engine without fluid in the pump.
When you fill it back up, turn the steering lock to lock a few times at tickover to purge any air.
