Are you using a MityVac or similar?
I had to replace the slave on mine, and am a one man show. Using a MityVac pump makes it easy to do by yourself. You can pick them up at almost any parts store and they're good for bleeding and testing all sorts of vacum stuff. Follow the guideline on the plunger from the prior post, then hook up the vacum hose to the bleed nipple, pump up some vacum in the line, and then crack it open just a bit. You'll get a bunch of bubbles at first, but just keep it slightly open and keep the pressure up around 5 pounds. Eventually the bubbles will get fewer and larger and then you'll get little or no bubbles. When that happens, tighten it back up. Like someone said, just like doing the brakes. Top off your fluid and check that the clutch pedal is firm. Then you can adjust the length of the rod like DonC said. Only trick I found is to make sure your vacum line has a tight seal around the nipple, or air will get pulled in from the outside and the bubbles will never end, and you'll run through all the fluid in your system. Also make sure all your lines are tight so you're not getting air or fluid leaks.
Hope that's what you're looking for.
