Nothing to adjust really, as they are hydraulic activated like a standard brakes system.
The master cylinder is self adjusting just like a brake caliper taking up wear on friction plates.
You might be able to fiddle another 50K mileage out af a worn clucth by DIY shimming the master cylinder.
Provided the fluid level is correct ...
Well worth an overhaul cleaning parts and replacing the fluid.
AFAIR there is a bleed valve on the master cylinder. Try bleed it as any air would eat from clutch pedal travel.
