For bladder build, like Fred said.

Once it is on, remove the bleeder screw and then push the shock shaft all the way in. While it's in reinstall the bleed screw. Little to no rebound and no danger of blowing out the bladder.
For emulsion, like Fred said till you get to the bladder install, then...
For emulsion with zero rebound, after you did the fill and get the bubbles out, fill the shock body with oil till it has a dome of oil. Rebound build you may need to put a couple drops of oil in the cap along with filling to a dome.
Screw the cap on without the screw.
Push the shaft all the way in.
While holding the shaft all the way in thread the bleeder screw in.

Simple and done.
