420c steering clutch free travel

How much free travel should the steering levers have on 420c? If the steering levers were set to an incorrect amount of free travel could this prevent the dozer from moving?

torque specs on 420C

I am replacing the clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, and resurfacing the flywheel on a 420C crawler. Does anyone know the bolt torque specs for the flywheel and the pressure plate?
