Takes patience, understanding and trial and error to set these. If the flywheel is on right and the parts are not new but still servicable, try this: -loosen all three nuts -engage clutch & hold forward with a tarp strap. -put the tansmission in neutral. -tighten all three nuts evenly (fingers only) occasionally rolling the pulley looking for drag. As the clutch starts to drag, get real picky about getting them all even constantly watching as you roll the pulley. Eventually even with just finger tight you'll get it too tight to roll by hand unless your nuts & bolts are binding. -disengage the clutch. Maybe you have some snap maybe not but likely a little. Leave it disengaged. - tighten all three one flat & try it - tighten all three one flat & try it - tighten all three one flat & try it Eventually you'll find a spot you like. -Install the cotter pins but don't bend 'em! Instead, grab each nut & rotate the nut and bolt AS A SINGLE UNIT back and forth watching and feeling for a point where it "pops out" towards you a bit. Sometimes you can't see it but can only feel it. What you're doing is "seating" the hardened TEE head of the clutch bolt into the worn spot in the softer clutch dog forks. Your good snap is now likely gone! -Tighten 'em all one flat, RE-SEAT 'em & try it. -Tighten 'em all one flat, RE-SEAT 'em & try it. When you're real close to the way you want it, one flat on all three may be too much. The very last few steps or changes may be only one or two nuts one flat at a time. Key point is to RE-SEAT the bolts into the forks before checking snap if using old worn but still servicable dogs. Post back and good luck.
