I put the question to Rob McIntyre at Tasco and thought this forum might be interested in his response:

"The clutch levers may be at the end of there travel. You can adjust the position of the lever, buy undoing the retaining screw on the lever shaft.
As they have the same star position setup as the NEQ6.
"

I will give it a try later today if I can.
