Flushing power steering system first?

I just finished converting an old manual steering box into power steering on my 61 chevy with 350 SB. I have the brand new pump mounted, new hoses and newly rebuilt gearbox that's out of a 79 Chevy truck.

Do I need to flush the system before I proceed to bleeding the system. In other words, do I need to jack up the wheels, fill the resevoir, turn a few times and then pull the hose and drain it all? Or, can I just bleed the system and be good to go?
