I'm reading through the clutch pedal adjustment procedure outlined in the service manual and find it very confusing. Can anyone shine some light on the following instructions?
(See the images below for reference.)
Step 2: "Pull the clutch pedal by hand"
Step 4: "Make sure the clutch pedal height did not change"
Step 7: "To the floor on the tab without the insulation"
Step 8: "Measure the clutch pedal disengagement height"
Step 10: "Remove the clutch pedal assembly"
Thank you kindly.

Step 2: "Pull the clutch pedal by hand"
Why does it need to be pulled? Won't the clutch pedal rest at its highest position when the pedal adjusting bolt is unscrewed and no longer touches the clutch pedal?
Step 4: "Make sure the clutch pedal height did not change"
It just said to screw the pedal adjusting bolt 3/4 to 1 full turn past the point where it touches the clutch pedal. How does that not change (i.e. reduce) the height of the clutch pedal?
Step 7: "To the floor on the tab without the insulation"
Pulled back the carpet in my car. Both of 'em. I see no tab!
Step 8: "Measure the clutch pedal disengagement height"
Isn't this the "engagement" height they're showing? As in the point at which the clutch starts to re-engage as you bring the pedal up from the floor. Unless they're saying the point at which the clutch is fully disengaged. (Side note: how do you even measure this?)
Step 10: "Remove the clutch pedal assembly"
Why? You can easily make this measurement with the clutch pedal intact by using the center of the locking bolt (that goes the hole pictured on the right side of "A").
Thank you kindly.
