The bleeder fitting is located on the bottom of the caliper so the system can be bled from the lowest point to the highest.  The best system to use is a piston pump similar to the pump used for emergency extension pumps.  If the pump is in good condition it won't introduce air into the system.  Some people use a pressure pot, the only problem with this is that when charging the pot, small air bubbles can be introduced and since it is under pressure, they get smaller.  But in the long word, that's why the fitting is on the bottom, unlike a car that is bled from the master reservoir
