Pilot bearing

The bearing won't come off the fingers until you get past over center and the OC spring pulls the peal up.
So which way would I adjust the fork? I tried both directions. Backing off the until the bearing clears makes the pedal go to the floor or not come all the way up. I tightened it and the pedal would come all the way back up but the bearing was resting on the fingers. I'm bamboozled. There are tons of threads but none really come to an answer. There's no real slop anywhere
