Front Prop Clearance and Nose Strut Deflated

I am trying to understand how to inflate my nose strut, but I do not have the equipment to do this yet (jacks, nose gear holder, nitrogen bottle, information how to release nose gear only). I found a two way to do the nose gear release so I could service the strut on this site, but I don't feel comfortable enough to use them. I am currently out of Annual and was thinking about taking my aircraft to an off-field facility and have them service the strut during annual. My nose strut is completely deflated, and I wanted to know if there could be an issue with prop strikes or gear stress if I flew it for a temporary flight to have my annual done.

Thanks for any help,

Karl
