Sorry, no pics.
That rod threads into the bracket at the top of the clutch pedal. Near the end of that rod is a lock nut that snugs up against the front side of the bracket. You should be able to back that nut away from the bracket and then spin it freely down the rod shaft. Then you can turn the rod to adjust the clutch friction point. Spin the nut back against the bracket to lock it down.

What isn't "deep enough"? Are you wanting to adjust the engagement point, or the pedal stroke? If you want to increase the pedal stroke, you do that by raising / lowering the clutch switch that acts as a bump stop for the pedal assembly.

"Free space"??????
Sorry, but even this description doesn't make any sense. It's also obvious that my posted directions for adjusting the pedal isn't what you're looking for. You need to be more precise in telling us what your issue is.

If this is the case, then he needs to read my adjustment instructions.
Since he asked for "HELP" 40 minutes after I posted a suggestion, I just assumed that this was not what he's looking for.
