Before operating a newly repaired hydraulic lift, maintenance personnel must carefully bleed the fluid lines. Trapped air pockets inside the closed system can cause erratic movement and prevent the cylinders from holding pressure properly. Opening the release valve allows the trapped air to escape until a solid stream of fluid appears, ensuring smooth and reliable mechanical operation.

As used in the passage, the word "bleed" most nearly means to

  1. A
    lose blood from a physical wound
  2. release trapped air or fluid from a closed systemCevap
