Default 46mm Ohlins Bleeding

I normally use LTR but thought I might save some cash on shipping and labor so I took my Ohlins to a respected local suspension guy. He told me he thought the forks have far to little rebound damping. He gave them back with the adjuster nearly all the way closed. He also told me he could not get one leg completetly bleed of all the air. He thought that it would eventually burp out. Forgive my ineptness here but I know nothing about suspension and how it works. Could his inability to completeely bleed the forks contribute to the lack of rebound damping? How hard is it to bleed the forks, could I do it myself? Despite the fact that I just paid this guy to try to do it for me I feel compelled not to take my stuff back to him. Any thoughts or tips will be appriciated.
