Hi Jude, to Trike Talk
Does your Freewheeler have ABS? If Not look here,
Start in the front left, then front right. Those are the most forward bleed screws on the Freewheeler caliper.
The 2 aft bleed screws on the front calipers are for the rear master cylinder. Then you move to the rear wheels.

Jude, this may be a better explanation for bleeding your brakes. Before you start, suck out as much old fluid as you can. You may notice some slime floating in the fluid and or some graying of the fluid. This is from assembly fluid @ the manufacture site of the components.
You can use a lint free rag to wipe out the master cylinder. Then proceed to bleed the brakes being careful not to run the master cylinder dry.

If you continue to do rear brakes :
Front - left (lower bleeder)
Front - right (lower bleeder)
Rear left
Rear right
