easy method, one person
Connect a long clear tube to the slave bleeder. Then make a loose loop knot around something like the exhaust pipe. Put the tube end in the canister. Then pump the clutch up and down by hand multiple times. Watch how the brake fluid stays in the loop. keep it topped off. Once all air is out, tighten the bleeder with the pedal up. Make sure no air is in the clear tube between the slave and the loop.
The loop serves the purpose of extending the fluid system, so when the pedal is returned to the up position only air free fluid returns into the slave cylinder.
This is much easier than any other method. I usually have it done in less than a half hour alone. That includes jacking the car up and putting it on stands, which is the hardest part. Also use a stable can to catch fluid. I hate spilling brake fluid.
