    Is there a youtube or manual on this clutch adjustment?
    I see two spots or to adjust it and I'm looking for some help/know how.
    I know it is basic but I just want to make sure.
    I push the clutch in but can't get it in gear/needs adjusting.

    Thanks,
    Jim

    Just had to remove the pin off the first link on the pedal and screw that in clockwise three turns. Weird, use to be adjusted but maybe the body moved or ,,,, Works now ! thanks.

    It could be wear in the system, the linkage or the clutch as well.

    My system uses locknuts on those adjusters. Not sure which is the better setup.
