Air or any gas, compresses, and is bad to have in a hyrdaulic system.

If you are starting with one of the double acting, which the major ones are, apply enough pressure to move the ram to the other end of the cylinder, and repeat for that end of that cylinder. Do this for each cylinder that has been removed from the system. The remaining air will be very little which should easily cycle thru. I've done some big system where you tighten one end of the hose and start pouring hydraulic fluid into the other end.
