Default Bleed ABS Unit Manually

Hi
I had to removed the ABS unit, afterwards I did a complete fluid flush ..
but the Break pedal now hits the floor ....
There is definitely no air in the brake lines... I have read in some of the Threads to bleed the ABS Unit and Master Cylinder

I did assume if there was no air in the lines, there be none in the ABS unit,, Any suggestions on how to bleed the unit ?
is it as simple as pedal down losen screw, then tighten and pedal up ? (I had only one person so couldn't try this)
(I replaced a unit on a BW Troubleu before and didn't have to bleed the unit )

Cheers

Uummm... not really

What is the Clutch Slave Cylinder? The clutch slave cylinder plays an important role in vehicles with manual transmissions. The slave cylinder works in tandem with the clutch master cylinder to disengage the clutch and shift the transmission when the pedal is pressed.

In automotive engineering, the master cylinder is a control device that converts force into hydraulic pressure. This device controls cylinders located at the other end of the hydraulic brake system.
