Simple;
Use the cone shaped attachment. Put the bottle in line with enough fluid for the hose to submerge in the bottle. Insert the cone at the base of the master, draw 18" of vacuum and watch the air bubbles come out. When the bubbles stop, release the vacuum, make sure there's enough fuid in the master to cover the cone before you remove it and your done.

Needless to say, make sure you don't spill any fluid on your paint, and wash the hoses and bottle when you're done.

I tried that way once and it didn't work for me. I ended up having to pull fluid up into the system with it. Kind of a pain in the *** but it worked good.

Mity Vac worked okay... It got some of the major bubbles out but only enough to make it driveable. Now its just sucking in air through the master cylinder seals.
