Very common problem. The pull rod that goes across the car behind the heater box, between the bell crank by the pedal and the similar bell crank behind the glovebox, connected to the servo has a normal thread on one end and a reverse thread on the other, so turning it alters its length.
Release the locknut, and turn the bar, using a small open ended spanner on the flats on the rod near where it passes the clutch pedal, until the pedal is just clear of the upper stop for the brake pedal. Don't overdo it,or the brakes will lock on.
