i not really a drummer... but used to play drum a while....so sorry if my comment is a bit out
but did u check the screw on the top of the hit hat... sometimes tt gets loose... or did u tighten the screw without pressing down the pedal so the hit-hat is stuck at closed position

the screw on the clutch is tight...no matter what i do the pedal is always flat, can't keep it angled..when lock it at angled position, can't press it...

Okie... htis kinda thing happend to me before.....

All you gotta do is..... Take the rod out(The one thats suppose to open/ close the hi hat), if it can be taken out then you'll have to re screw it back to the Spring...... Just turn you rod to tighten it...... If there's still a problem then you pedal is of no use....

heyz...if wad killer clover suggested still didnt work...u might have to check if maybe the spring has popped out..it could have probably popped out coz the washer holding it down has worn out....
