Ben,
The clutch arm is not self adjusting.

You could have too much play in the pedal adjustment. That is controlled by the adjustment of the slave cylinder rod length.

That adjustment is very sensitive. If there is no play it will cause damage to the throughout bearing or the ZF shifting forks. If you have gear noise when shifting into gear you probably have the slave cylinder rod too short.

You can check the play in the clutch system by
pulling down on the end of the clutch arm at the point where it contacts the slave cylinder. You should feel and see at least 1/8 of an inch play. Measuring at the pedal is also good.

There is another adjustment at the clutch master cylinder. That is the master cylinder rod which has a threaded end at the pedal connection. This adjustment changes the position of the pedal very slightly.

By extending the rod the pedal is raised assuring full engagement of the slave cylinder when the pedal is in the full depressed position.
