How do I remove the clutch for a Craftsman Weedwacker, model 358.791580?

I need to replace the pull rope, but I have to remove the clutch to get to the pull rope.

you will need a flathead screwdriver that will fit down the shaft of the bell that covers the clutch ( I grinded the sides of a flathead screwdriver just so it would fit in the shaft )while holding the bell with a wrench to keep it from turning,turn the screw thats in the shaft counter clockwise,remove bell.turn clutch in direction of arrow(counter clockwise)to remove clutch.installation is the reverse of removal
