fill up your reservoir,open the bleed nipple and see if it bleeds itself with gravity,if not,shut bleeder,get someone to press pedal,open bleeder,shut bleeder,pedal up,press pedal,open bleeder,shut bleeder,pedal up and so on,hopefully when you open bleeder you will get a flow of air and fluid until you get a good flow of fluid with every pump of the pedal,if this fails you may have to get it bled with a pressure bleeder which works on compressed air
