manual trans hard to shift 850 1995

Thanks for the suggestions, however since I last posted I tried another procedure where I took a long thin steel bar and physically pushed the fork to the end of its stroke(i.e. the clutch should have then been fully disengaged). However I have the same symptoms even when doing this procedure. I was reading on Matthews Volvo Site, Ozark Lee reported a similar problem that was caused by the throwout bearing wearing out and causing the fingers on the pressure plate to wear down therefore shortening them and then this causing the fork to not be able to adequately disengage the clutch due to the shortened fingers on the pressure plate. Thoughts?
