I have no idea what shifters etc. you have, but if you have a cable adjuster on it, back out the adjuster 1 turn so that you can add a bit of slack to the cable if needed.

You might also try backing out the L screw another 1/8 turn or so.
Thank you. I will check this out as well. The derraileur is a Shiman Tourney, and the shifters are Shimano rapidfies.
