Bleeding Hydraulic System Lift and Tilt Cylinders ....also Trans hesitates...

How do I bleed hydraulic system, including tilt and lift cylinders.

on another note....

Why does Trans hesitate. It will kick in if i gas it and give it a little time, but isn't responsive. Fluid level is ok.

Anywhere to buy an Operators Manual? This is roughly a 1970 model C500-40 with telescopic cylinder.
