do it as if you were bleeding the brakes caliper at a time

just keep pumping the fluid out, topping it up, as you go

when the fluid changes colour as it comes out, your throught to the new srtuff

If you've got one, use a syringe to empty the reservoir first then top it up with fresh fluid, saves the new fluid getting mixed with the old stuff as much, also saves a bit of time as your not having to empty all the old stuff thru the bleed nipples.

Air-line powered vacumn bleeder, mmmm. Not exactly something the average home tinkerer would have though.
