last time I did this the MC came with a short hose that fit the MC port. Loop the hose up into the reservoir submerged. Pump through till no more bubbles. Also release plunger on SC and fill w fluid. Hold at angle and work plunger to get bubbles out. assemble and final bleed w small allen head set screw at the end of SC.

What he said, and if you are not bleeding with a vacuum pump go buy one. It takes the guess work out and can be done with one person.
