I took the clutch off my HRX217HYA MAGA 2035925 - when I put it back on, the blade clutch is always engaged. The parts are all installed in the correct order but I can't figure out how to resolve this. The cable from the handle functions properly so it has nothing to do with that. It is something with the clutch assembly only. Not only is it hard to start, but it is a safety issue.

To summarize:
blade clutch did work
I took it off and put it back on, it didn't work.
I've checked the diagram to ensure all parts in in correct sequence and in correct direction.
the drive clutch will rotate in both directions until it stops. The driven clutch has a rough spot on it but it will rotate over drive plate by hand.
I've taken off and reinstalled several times but no effect.
It has to do with how I reinstalled parts

any suggestions?
