0 To remove the coupler spray with WD-40 several times and let it sit. Bang with hammer to loosen up. Get a cheap gear puller from Harbor Freight or similar place. Pray. Took a long time for it to finally break loose and I had to crank hard all the way. I left the holding bolt in, backed out a bit, and put the center of the gear puller against it. As the coupler came out I would remove the gear puller and back the bolt out more and continue. The bolt was not long enough for the entire move so I took another long bolt and put it in the opening head first because I didn't have anything to match the thread on the machine. After I greased it up it went right back on.
