on an 89 w/ M47----the clutch play is checked by Pulling UP on the clutch pedal.

There should be 'free play' between where the pedal sits at rest and the Upper limit when doing this test.

In older Volvos---the M series trans, 4spds(+OD) the test is to push Down on the pedal to judge the free play.

To Adjust:
From Under-- at the Tranny---push/pull on the Fork---you should be able to move it by hand, I think the specs are 8 to 10 MM----though you can look that up.

If there is NO Play, then the clutch is not fully DIS-engaged when your foot is OFF the pedal. aka- 'you are riding the clutch'

Adjusting is really simple---using that threaded mounting that holds the clutch cable.
