I just did this the other week during front rotor and pad replacement. The only thing I'll add here that I didn't see is that the bleeder valves are supposed to be torqued to 70 ft-lbs in-lbs.

Also, I borrowed a friend's power bleeder and the hose attached to the main reservoir busted on me when I was just about to start the last corner. It sprayed me in the face (that's what she said) and got on my fender paint as well - I had to scramble to get a towel and some cleaner to wipe it off quickly. Just a friendly reminder to check the condition of your equipment
