Hydraulic systems are either gravity feed systems or pressurized systems. In a gravity feed system the pressure is produced as a result of an elevated tank holding the motive fluid, returns are pumped back to the tank from a collector tank at the bottom of the system. In a pressurized system a hydraulic positive displacement pump pumps the fluid into the system pressurizing it. Relief valves will dump excess pressure back to the holding tank.

Hydraulic jacks are always made of steel. No other material would be able to take such internal pressure
You must take the following into consideration: -Delta volume due to pressurization, how much the fluid will compress under pressure (usually a very small amount) -Delta volume to charge any accumulators in the system (can be quite large) -Volume fluctuations due to temperature changes, fluid will contract when cold and expand when hot. (If tank isn't big enough, it might overflow when hot) -Leakage allowance, add up the acceptable leak rates for the overall system, and multiply by the amount of time between desired hydraulic servicing interval (how often you think it should be refilled) - this is probably the biggest factor in sizing a hydraulic tank or reservoir.
Pascal's principle is the foundation of modern hydraulics
A hydraulic pump uses an external mechanical force to pressurize the hydraulic fluid. A hydraulic motor uses the pressurized hydraulic fluid to apply a mechanical force an external machine. See the difference between a pump and a motor.
Take a tube, put a piston in it, seal off both ends of the tube, and use a liquid, or gas to put pressure in and remove pressure from the tube. As the fluid or gas goes in the tube, the pressure pushes the piston out. As the pressure is released, the piston can recede.
That would be "bleeding" the system.

Hydrostatic systems take the mechanical rotary output of an engine or electric motor and convert it to a hydraulic source of power using a hydraulic pump. The hydraulic power is converted back to mechanical power using a hydraulic motor
A hydraulic pressure reducing valve works by allowing hydraulic fluid to be released. This hydraulic fluid is then chambered separately until it is needed again. The valve is turned either left or right to either build pressure or take pressure away.

PTO is Power Take Off... if the truck has a hydraulic system (such as dump trucks, wreckers, roll-offs, etc.), then it has a PTO which engages the hydraulic pump.

I would take it to a different garage for diagnosis,
Air takes more time to flow through the lines than hydraulic fluid.
