On the larger tractors, the way that you would remove air from the system was to open the fill plug and cycle the hydraulic system for a while. For instance, if you have power steering, you would cycle the steering wheel from lock to lock 10 or 12 times, raise and lower the three point hitch 10 to 12 times,etc. I am not sure with a 340. I know one person who has a 340 that the hydraulics quit working on. Supposedly, the pump lost its prime, and no amount of running would get the air out. I am not sure how the mechanic got it primed again, but he did. There are a lot of other people on this site who own 340's; surely one of them would know.
