My 2615 has the same problem. The hi-lo lever and the synchro shift lever both are very difficult to move.
I think because the range lever is not synchronized you have to have the gears in just the right alignment in order for them to slide in rather than argue with each other. I have an older Kubota (also unsynch) which has no such range lever issues. A very tiny bit of letting out on the clutch on your machine will change the relative gear positions and eventually allow an "easy shift" by cut & try. Yes, it gets easier with wear/use simply because the tolerances and spacings get slightly greater due to wear.
I doubt there are any "adjustments" for this issue.
Now to the larger problem: In my opinion MF has cave men for designers and darn near no testing going on at the factory or test facility, if they even have one. Us poor b***s out here are the testers at our expense. I have a much larger MF2660 and 8x8 shuttle transmission with only 87 hrs on it in 13mos. It has been "too hard to move the shuttle" from day one. It has failed totally (to the point where the machine could not be moved under it's own power) twice. Because
I have never been able to get ANY feedback on any forum from another 2660/2670/2680 owner I have no clue whether the problems might be just a few lemons or the same across all of them. Dealers sometimes have comments & try to be helpful but Massey is for sure not going to answer that direct.
At least on the larger machines I have a very strong suspicion that the interconnect between the shuttle shift and the clutch is the culprit. You must have the clutch "all the way in" in order to shift the shuttle. Exactly how is that implemented internally ? Lord knows. It's a mystery and on my 2660 you cannot get the console out of the way in a reasonable amount of time to look-see how the thing really works works. The documentation is useless on the topic.
Some people expect that the "hydraulic shuttle" (or "power reverser" as John Deere copyrighted the name) is the final solution. The hyd shuttle/pwr rev is a thing of beauty (based on 10 yrs experience with a Deere) in terms of the shuttle action but then the tractor will not stay in place with the engine off and the thing in gear. That is a good trade off ONLY if you have a parking brake that works well.
