" I need to change out the tri

" I need to change out the trim motor and pump on a three ram with a 1990 Merc 115 outboard. Current motor and pump seem to be frozen. How do I raise the motor to get access. It seems that the hydraulic tank went dry, causing the pump to freeze and then taking out the motor too. I don't want to make things worse by forcing up the motor but I got to get it out of the way. Any suggestions? "
