I already discovered the need to tip the cylinder 'nose down, so that
you can bleed the air from them. To achieve this, I just undo the nut on
top of the nose gear fork, remove the fork assembly complete then lower
the nose gear leg onto a block of blue foam 3 or 4 inches thick on the
floor. Saves having to jack up the main gear and is less precarious.

them finger brakes are a pain in the backside to fit have you only just
put 
them because if you have the best way to get all of the air out is to
get 2 
lots of blue foat about 1 foot square by about 3/4 of afoot thick then
put 
them uner them 2 main wheels and bleed them in the ushal way it woors a 
treat just make sure that u chock the front wheel
