Hugh, I have to disagree. You are definitely correct in most respect, however, if the loaders cylinders are one way, they do need to be bled. I have had to do this the 3 times I have flushed my hydraulic system. The reason this is, is the lift cylinders always sit with their rods ends higher then the hose connection. Also the piston does not return all of the fluid to the res when the cylinders are fully retracted. I had to remove the cylinders. run the rods out with the valve, then tilt the cylinder with the hose being the highest point so any air would be forced back into the resevoir. Having air trapped in the cylinders doesnt effect anything, it just makes the loader bouncy with a load in the bucket. My 2 way dump cylinders bleed themselves, as I can work them with the loader arms up to get the air to rise to the hoses.
As far as the main hydraulics, the suction, pressure and vavles, they dont need bled, just worked a bit.
