Hayward Ec40ac Bump Handle Tension

I have a question. I replaced my diaphram gasket on my hayward perfles DE filter this year. I noticed that I have resistance bumping the filter in the up position my no resistance in the down position. Up until I had to replace the gasket I had resistance in both directions. Is there a wrong way to install the gasket.
