Default clutch adjustment

so i tried to adjust my clutch last night('06 low rider)and gave up for fear of messing up the lock nut. is there a special wrench used to reach the nut? i can't get a good angle on it with a regular box end. thanks for the help.

Two easy ways to get it done.1. Sears sells an offset box wrench, this is what I use. 2. In the do-it-yourself section, there is a suggestion to weld a nut to the end of a socket and your good to go. I don't have access to a welder so the sears craftsman wrench was the easiest.

You'll need a 1/2" & a 9/16" to make the adjustment low06.

I had a buddy weld up a socket for me... you guys must know someone that welds. Even if you didn't, a shop somewhere would prolly do it for a few bucks - assuming you took in the two parts.
