You could have bent something when installing. Not much room to work, but you can leave the bolts loose when you push the two halves of the tractor together and tighten through the hand hole. That has to be done on the tractors with IPTO, not necessarily the 140. Otherwise, the release bearing is not pushing the fingers in far enough. I hope you did not mess with the fingers before installation, they are "supposed" to be set at the factory. Also, some clutches have extra bolts to hold the fingers compressed for easier installation. Those have to be removed. I don't think the newer clutches have them, but you might check.
 
With respect, the transmission is straight cut spur gears which slide into one another along a shaft. There is no mechanism to allow this trans to be shifted between gears on the "fly". If you are starting from neutral, and push in the clutch, wait 10 to 15 seconds, then put it in the gear you intend to use. If you want to change gears, stop, leave the clutch in, and change gears. If this make it stop grinding, it is the way they are.
If it grinds when ever it is shifted at full stop, or will not allow clash free shifting from a stop with the clutch down all the way and time allows the gears to stop, then the clutch, or pilot bearing might be at fault. Jim
