Both:
#1. Top off the reservoir.
#2. Attach the bleeder cap.
#3. Fill bleeder tank.
#4. Bleed air from bleeder line.
#5. Attach bleeder line to reservoir.
#6. Pump up bleeder tank pressure.
#7. Lock trigger open.
#8. Bleed one wheel.
#9. Repeat steps #3. - #8. as needed.
Remember:
If the reservoir becomes empty, you must bleed the whole system again.
I would rather waste a gallon of fluid than risk air in the system or having to bleed more than once.
