Would like some info on how to purge hydraulic steering system air in line
 
I asked this question on the recent webinar and Andrew replied: - [ ] Could be that the system needs bled. Very simple to do on a power steering unit. Clear tubes that run from the bleed valve and right into the fill port on the power steering pump. Open the bleed valves and run the power steering.

I can find the Power Steering Pump and reservoir, but, am yet to locate the Bleed Valves. It would be great, and save a lot of questions, if all these systems were posted somewhere.
 
Before you ever go through the hassle of purging a steering system, I would want to know why you think this is necessary. Usually, air would get into a system from a leak or if someone was to add a component to the system. Can you explain why you would want to do this?

Thank you,
