Bleeding f40 trans

I have been here alot asking alot of questions hopefully this is my last question, does anyone know how to bleed the f40 transmission. I tried the pump in the brake fluid reservoir but i dont know if im doing it right and the clutch pedal still stays on the floor when pressed in. Anyone know how to properly bleed it and should i bleed brakes or clutch first? Thanks!

I'm going to assume it's not significantly different than the F35. Get fluid to the bleeder and the close it and pull vacuum on the brake reservoir for 10mins. Release vacuum and slowly pump clutch two or three times. Then repeat the vacuum and slow pump until the pedal starts to feel better.

Also might want to change the thread title to bleeding clutch for F40 transmission.
