Put a flashlight under the reservoir so that you can see the level of the clutch section.

Fill up to the very top, making sure that the clutch part does really fill.

Open the bleed nipple on the slave cylinder and leave it open, but with a tube and bottle connected so that you can see that something is flowing out.

Keeping an eye on the level in the clutch section by looking through the windshield as you pump.

Pump the clutch once, check the level in the clutch side, see if you need to top up and do so if necessary.

Pump the clutch again, continuing to check the level.

Once you’ve pumped about 3oz through and out of the slave, and provided the level didn’t drop too much, you’ll be done. Tighten the bleed screw and test.

I believe there are one way valves in the system so you don’t need to tighten the bleed screw between pumps. Just leave it open until you’re done.
