Exactly the same way you bleed the brakes.

read the package first. otherwise put a tube on the bleeder niple and put the tube in a cup of brake/clutch fluid so that no air can get in it. have a helper pump the cluth and tell you each time he does it. as soon as he starts pushing (pressurisizing the system) slightly open the bleeder nut with your wrench and *** soon as teh pedal hits the floor, close the valve back down. repeate this process until no more bubles or crudy looking fluid come out of the tube in the cup (it may take a while) be sure to constanly replace the fluid you're pumping out in the clutch reservoir so that you dont pump more bubles in than you are taking out. good luck!

Only thing I'd add is to pump the pedal 5 or 6 six times before holding it to the floor and opening the bleeder nipple. Also, the pedal may stick to the floor (happened to me) each time your helper holds it down. Just pull it back up and repeat as necessary.
