Do some handheld speed controllers have a blocker to prevent reverse?

Just bought an endura C2 45 lb. and had to disassemble the speed controller to get it though the hull. Never checked before but on reassembling it, it will only dial in either forward or reverse depending on which side of a metal stud the dial's downward facing post is inserted.

Is this by design? I bought the motor as a modified kit for a kayak understanding it to allow forward and reverse thrust. The controller shows forward and reverse but cannot dial to both. Did I reassemble it the wrong way? Thanks.
