Yes, but isn't it a little like changing engine oil one litre at a time? Why not just drain it properly, get all the crap out of the bottom where it is sitting in the steering gear, and put fresh fluid in? Do it by disconnecting the return line. It can be messy, but at least you change all the fluid.
