How do you purge air from a hydraulic system?

Bleeding only works for “free” air pockets where the air has not mixed with the fluid. For dissolved air, you can remove it by raising the temperature of the fluid until the air is released. This should only be done if absolutely necessary as hydraulic oil will normally tend to be at least 10% dissolved air.

Why does my hydraulic jack bleed down?

One of the most common reasons for that is a low fluid level or there might be a leak somewhere. If hydraulic fluid can leak out, air can also get in. If the level is low, add some fluid. If you suspect that it could be due to inadequate fluid viscosity, drain the jack and re-fill it with new hydraulic fluid.
