I recently got an old 544 up and running after engine rebuild and clutch replacement. It runs fine, and I tested a new 8' mower, PTO and T/A work perfectly. I initially left the Operators Platform off to check for leaks, and put it back on yesterday. The platform, by design, limits the travel of both the Clutch & Brake Pedals. The brakes are fine, but now the clutch no longer has any free play, and will not travel downward far enough to fully disengage the transmission. The problem is not with the "yoke" adjustment, and the way the platform is designed, it would be difficult to put it on wrong. I searched some older Posts, and found a similar problem where it was recommended to adjust the fingers on the pressure plate. I have not ever done that and am looking to get some input/thoughts from someone a little more familiar with this, or if there is something else wrong. Thanks!
