You can leave it on. Just don't bend the hard lines very much.... They will break. It is easier with it discharged, but you can do it either way.

Just be gentle with it and you should be fine. Make sure you have someone to give you a hand.

Just rotate it to the left and up if you're standing in front of the car and you should have plenty of room to work.

Good luck!
