Brake Master Cylinder

We have rebuilt the brakes on this lift, wheel cylinders, shoes and new master, this is a hydraulic pressurize system , master run's off of the lift's hydraulics, I've bleed the system to remove air, problem is the brake pedal pumps up but leave it alone for a few minutes and pedal goes to the floor again, acts like still air in system. What I'm I doing wrong, am I missing something ?

Did you have the motor running while bleeding?
