AFTER SHIFTING THE MOTOR INTO GEAR IT WILL GRIND UNLESS Y0U ACTUALLY MOVE THE LEVER DOWN FURTHER AND INCREASING THE RPM'S. IT EVENTUALLY DOES KICK INTO GEAR. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

hey I had the same problem I could get neutral and forward or neutral and reverse but could not get both properly adjusted, I ended up adjusting so I could get forward properly and just live with engaging reverse by using some further movement to fully shift.
