Not sure how the 92 TE SLS is set up, but on the 560 here is how I flush.

Remove the return line and open the top to the resevoir ( the return line attaches to the lid and has to be removed to completely remove lid), Attach a section of clear tubing to the return line, place other end in an empty milk jug. Have several quarts of MB hydraulic fluid on hand and near the car. Start engine and let idle, the fluid will begin pumping through the system and collecting in the jug. Keep the resevoir topped up with fresh fluid while it is being pumped into the jug. As soon as fresh fluid comes out of the return line (that is why you used clear tubing), shut the engine off. Flush complete. The main filter resides in the resevoir, directly under the cap. Replace filter, top up to the full mark, install cap and return line, job done.

Again, the process might be slightly different on your model, but this should be close enough for government work.
