Mend Potterton Powermax HE Boiler Heating Bleed Radiators

How can i fix my potterton powermax HE?

My potterton powermax HE boiler has developed a regular knocking sound every couple of seconds. I have been told it could be air in the system. I have bled the radiators but have now been told it could be air in the boiler itself and to use the bleed nipples. What are these and where would i find them?
