It seems that the programme itself already has translations:
https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/tree/master/src/po
(zh_CN.po I imagine?)

As for the documents, those can be found in the tree here:
https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/tree/master/docs/src

It seems that the convention is to append an _es and _fr for spanish and
french versions respectively.

So, I imagine that you would need to create docs with a _cn extension to
the name, and then submit a pull-request via github.

See: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/code/contributing-to-linuxcnc.html
for general advice and
http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Translation for more specific (but
slightly outdated) advice.
Also  http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Internationalization
(However that page is very much describing how to translate the user
interfaces, not the documentation.)

Maybe start with the "getting started" guide and see how that goes?
