I am replacing hydraulic hose on my L5030HST. I had a local hydraulic shop build the replacement and am ready to install. My question is whether to be concerned about the air in the line. Do I bleed it off somehow, or just make sure the fluid levels are good and start using.

Thanks for you help!

I think you will find that it will bleed itself out by starting the engine and excercising the steering.

ibnxethen has it right. Your hydraulic system is self-bleeding. I would work the steering back and forth a few times, then you'll be good to go.
