Takeuchi TB180FR Radiator Removal…(drain hydraulic oil?)

I'm following the steps in the service manual...but I don't see any mention of draining the hydraulic oil?? Why won't I have gallons of hydraulic oil on the floor when I remove the lower radiator hydraulic hose?

    The radiator is out. I did not drain the hydraulic oil tank. Around 1 gallon of hydraulic oil came out. New radiator is > $2,000 so I'm hoping the old one can be repaired.
