How do I push in the brake fluid cylinder to put pads back on?

I have a 1994 Golf 3. I am replaceing the rear pads and
Rotors. I can not get the brake fluid plunger to go back
so I can put it back over the Rotor. What Should I do?

If you own a "G" Clamp big enough to reach the piston on BOTH SIDES,just adjust the clamp onto the piston carefully, tighten up until it is in far enough in so you can fit the pads on.
I think you have to be careful with the brake fluid CAP.It has to be off when you do this,watch out the level doesn't overflow
