Simply cycle them a few times., system will self bleed. just watch the oil level doing this as not to run too low .

Ayuh,...... Like B/D says,..... It's Self-Bleeding,..... Just cycle it several times......

I Think the Fill on that old pump is on the Front Right-side as you're looking at it,....
There should be 2 Screws,......
1 is about 1/2" Higher than the Other,.... The 1 on the Left I think,... It's the Fill-Hole,...... Take that 1 Out,+ Funnel the Oil in there,......
The Lower 1 is the Vent Screw,.......Pull this 1 out,+ Fill thru the other til it Leaks out the Vent hole........

Cycle it 10 or 15 times,+ Refill...........
