Short of pulling it out, nothing you can do TBH. Have to question why it is slipping though after such a short time? Possibility of contamination on the mating surfaces such as oil perhaps? Assume that you had the flywheel skimmed when you installed the new clutch and it was still within factory tolerances?

Bit different from your first post. As above, hydraulic system probably needs adjusting. Failing that, you may need to look at whether you need a new slave cylinder and I'd also recommend flushing out the old fluid and replacing with new.

flush/bleed the hydraulics and if that doesnt fix it, adjust the rod on teh clutch pedal, if that doesnt fix it start to suspect the slave cylinder.
