Default Re: Problem with clutch disengaging

After taking up all the slack on the throw-out rod (and then some), things worked fine for the next several trips. I knew this set-up would finish off the throw-out sooner or later.
This week hauling hay, it disengaged fine with no complaints even in granny and reverse.
Then it quit disengaging almost completely. requiring killing the engine and starting in gear with up shifts really difficult, but worked to get home and hay in barn.
I think the pressure plate or disc has failed but will have to pull to find out.
Since I haven't pulled the tranny for 30 years or more and lost my manuals since then, I could use some help with the steps of the procedure to pave my way.
A link to directions or ideas from personal experience both would be useful.
Thanks
