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.

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
