Using Pressure Bleeder to bleed brakes with no fluid?

On one of the other threads, a poster said that when using a pressure brake bleeder (a Motive Bleeder, for example) to bleed the brakes, he did NOT put any brake fluid in the bleeder.

He said he just pushed air pressure using the pressure bleeder which lowers the risk of blowing brake fluid all over the car. I'm planning on installing Amsoil DOT4 synthetic brake fluid in the 1991 560SEL using a pressure bleeder.

Question: If I follow his advice, how would I get the new synthetic brake fluid into the system? Would I simply add the new brake fluid to the master brake cylinder reservoirs?
