Sorry I didn't make it clear. remove pin from clevis on the straight end of rod turn clevis out half turn. This will push the selector better into first gear. This was all I needed to engage first without altering the other gear selections.
Ian I'm hoping that what worked for you may work for me so I'll have a go next week. If not, as I don't have a winter project the gearbox will be it! I can live with it until then.

Let us know if this works, Mike.
Very interesting !
