Need help with my Clutch!!!

I am told in my Haynes book that I will need a hydrolic press to pre adjust my self adjusting clutch. Does anyone know of another way?

Either you read it wrong or the book is wrong.

What vehicle first.

a self adjusting clutch is just likie a set of brakes. If you tried pushing back on the pads it's pretty tough. But if you crack open a bleed screw you will be able to flow the fluid back out of the system. My clutch was leaking and fell to the floor. i replaced the master and slave but now i'm out of brake fluid and i have no clutch. I guess when filling and purging you want to have an end in a bottle of fluid . I've come to this conclusion after pumping brakes all day and feeling the holes pulsating in and out sucking and ejecting, pulling airback in??? It would be alot easier if the tube was clear and i could see what the fluiid is doing. good luck
