1999 Porsche Boxter Clutch

I have a 1999 Boxter and had the clutch replaced about 10,000 miles ago and noticed that I have to depress the pedal a bit farther to shift (closer to the floor board).
I know that the clutch should be adjusted ever so ofter. Does anyone know of a site with step by step instructions on how to make my adjustment?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.....

Sasha - Porsche coolant can only be bought from a Porsche parts supplier (Sunset Porsche, Pelican Parts etc) and I believe some VW / Audi coolant is compatable.

Damon - you cannot adjust the clutch manually - it automatically adjusts for wear. If your clutch is taking up @ the bottom of travel, you probably have got air in the hydraulic line and it need flushing.

I found Pentosin 1200 at local Napa Store so I'll go with that.
Price is about same as Porsche coolant (which I beleive is also Pentosin)

Ordering online usually takes a week to get it there.. and I wanna change it this weekend

Thanks
Sasha
