Two cents, wrote this in another thread, however, .....

Just replaced clutch cable, the one I took out was original, '88/240/47, and it disengaged way down on the floor, couldn't loosen the locknut, sooooo I put in a new one and.......

the clutch now disengages about half way up the travel and no matter how much I screw the adjuster in or out, the adjustment seems to only change the level of the clutch pedel not the point of engagement/release??

I guess as the clutch wears the release/engage point moves up from the floor.

Hard shifting problem as you mentioned was softened a bit by a liberal smear on axle grease on the ball linkage with a drop of moly oil, and the usual adjustment of the lockout plate. Works a little better, but 1st always slides right in if I quickly shift into 3rd and then into 1st at rest.
