clutch with a rag or gloved hand and slide it all the way down, seating 
it in the mating bore of the holding block (#17). 

There is a snap ring 

groove on the screw that will be visible when the clutch is in proper 
position.

screw with one hand and turn the clutch counter clockwise until the 
pin drops into the notch on the inside diameter of the clutch. 

There are 

two notches on the inside diameter of the clutch. One has a ramp and 
the other does not. The pin must me in the notch that does not have 
the ramp

Using an external snap ring pliers, slide the snap ring (#10) down the 
length of screw and snap into place in the groove on the screw. 

Snap 

rings have one side that the edges will feel sharp and the other side 
the edges will feel rounded. The sharp side of the edges should be 
facing away from the clutch when installed. If the snap ring is 
installed backwards. The snap ring will have a tendency to pop out of 
its groove.

Place a small amount of grease in the front nut (#14) then slide it on 
the screw with the plunger (#40) facing the hex end of the screw until 
it reaches the threads on the clutch. Thread the nut onto the clutch in a 
counter clock wise direction until all the threads of the clutch are 
inside the nut. 

The threads in the front nut are left handed.
