When you first put your foot on the clutch pedal, there should be about 1/2 - 3/4 inch of "free play".
That is an area of pedal travel right at the top before the release bearing applies force to the pressure plate fingers.
If there is more than an inch or so, the linkage needs to be adjusted.
If that is good, and the clutch is still dragging, could be the pilot bearing is frozen, transferring power to the transmission even when the clutch is released.
It could also be a warped clutch disc, or a failing pressure plate, especially if the clutch is jerky when easing it in.
The engine also needs to be at slow idle when shifting. That transmission has no synchronizers, so it will grind if shifted while spinning. Also be sure the oil in the transmission is up to the full level. The oil helps slow the transmission when the clutch is released.
