pump the clutch 2x, release pressure, pump again2x, etc.
keep doing it till fluid comes out. once fluid comes out lock the bleeder

2 person job one pumps while the other loosen the bleeder bolt. i always put a bleed tube on the bleeder and have it drain into a empty bottle, to see the air bubble come out if any...usually you wont see bubbles, but if you do repeat what mau5trap said until you see no bubbles.
pump x2, loosen bolt, (see fluid come out) tighten bolt, manually lift clutch, and repeat......
brakes are the same way....

youtube has 493 video results on how to bleed clutch. Really want to know why did you have to ask question on how to, if there tons of videos out there.

fyi, on a 240, if you still have the dampener lines still in there, it won't ever completely bleed that way everyone said without a power bleeder, or you can bypass the dampener line

OP remember
clear lines help so much. Don't over tighten - hand tighten then 1/4 turn on like a 1/4" socket is plenty. Don't break the bleeder's they are fairly slim
And keep the reservoir filled, if topped off while pumping it is best (requires 3rd person) so new air doesn't return into the lines
this video helps a billion with the best way to do it

also when you press the pedal do it slowly to keep any air bubbles in the system from being "compressed" into smaller bubble which will be much harder to remove. same when you go to manually pull the pedal up. gravity bleeding also works great.
