Best way to bleed watercooling setup

[Etran]

I finally received my pump today (EHEIM 1250). I got my rad all soldered up with the right connections but because my rad is at the top of my case (it's fairly large and wouldn't fit anywhere else), I have a very small fill line. This is causing me problems as too how to bleed the system. Any suggestions on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

like so.

The blue tube is for filling and working out the air bubbles. Note the cap on it. Switch the pump on and off to work the water through it.

or just put the supply line to the reservoir in a container of the water you're using, and the exit tube in a bucket, let it run for a minute to get all the bubbles out, making sure the supply stays submerged, then once you have all the bubbles out and an ample amount in the exit container, maintain the exit tube underwater until you have the supply hooked up to keep from wicking any air back into the system, then put the exit tube on, you will have a small amount of air left in it, but it won't hurt much, usually gets into the reservoir and stays anyhow. you could also install a fill port onto your reservoir and fill it from there to the rim.

I put a tee and a valve to one of the inputs on my rad. I put water in my airtrap that is attached to the fill line, and when its filled, I open up the valve and it pushes the water through the loop and some of the water drains through the valve to my bucket out a hose. Then I close the valve. After about 5 times doing this, my system is bled, and I fill the airtrap to the brim.
