Stop engine and remove key from ignition before leaving operator’s seat for any reason. A child or even
a pet could engage an idling machine.

remove key from ignition.

header (notched) end of the driveline.
NOTE: The driveline may separate if not supported at
both ends.
3. Pull back collar (B), and slide coupler onto splined input
shaft (C) until it locks. Release the collar (B).
