When you are under there and finally get a good connection to the slave cylinder bleed screw, you will want to do it in one shot At least for me It was TIGHT under there
We do it everyday. Secrete to using the Motive bleeder is to (1) Make sure the clutch pedal is on the floor (we use a holding tool to keep it one man), and (2) Find a very stubby 12 point double box wrench (we use an old Craftsman that is barely 3 inches long), put the wrench on the bleeder before attaching the drain tubing.

The short wrench can easily open and close the bleeder in the confined space, and the entire process probably takes 2 min.
