turn the centre clockwise while applying pressure at the same time, their is a tool for doing this but I just use an old socket which I welded two peices of 6mm bar to the correct width apart so that they locate into the two small recesses in the centre of the caliper, you can then use an extension on your rachet to turn the piston of the calliper while pushing in on it at the same time.
