how does this clutch thing engage?

Hey! got my bike pretty much built but don't get how the clutch engages and disengages on the "cog thing". Looks like it pulls pretty tight from the wire but the back wheel won't spin freely.

Any ideas?

tried to put pics and stuff but wouldn't let me cuz it said i was posting links

Welcome to the forum!
Is it a 2-stroke engine or 4-stroke?
In frame or rack mounted?

Well done, young Skywalker. The force is growing within you.

can someone please explain the answer even though he solved it because the same problem happened to me and i have nooooo idea of how to fix it

motor bicycle clutch see if this will help.

what do you do if the clutch arm (relaxed) is already pointing to the center of the rear axle, then when you engage the clutch, the arm is almost hitting seat stay? the arm should point straight to the rear of the bike! can this be adjusted?
