i suppose it depends on what you mean by "adjusted"
if you are wondering about clutch wear, and if you have to manually compinsate for that wear in order to keep clamping pressure, then no...
what you do have to do is change your hydrolic clutch fluid and insure you fill it to the "fill line" as over time it will go down(a very little bit) with wear...

for more info see the clutch post in my sig...

See here is my problem at normal driving my car shifts fine but then when i step on it hard sometimes during the shift between 1st and 2nd it will slip. There was a time last year before i put it away for the winter i slipped it pretty good. Possibly could my clutch disc and flywheel need to be replaced and is it rather expensive or would i better of to do it myself stock 02 WS6 conv.

a new clutch can be had for reasonable prices,
in stock form, you should look at the very reasonable spec clutches...
--------------------------->
several sponcers sell them...

if you drive pretty hard... and have got 30-50k on the odomiter, there is a good chance yours is on its way out....
no better time to upgrade
