I needed to remove the engine with 3 bolts to get to the bolt heads for the pump. I had to drop the pump out to get in good position to remove the set screw on the coupler. After assembly, I realized the coupler was too high so I had to drop the pump again and reset the position. Re-installed the engine and it works great.

Bad engineering design: self destructing spacer between engine & pump.
1. Separate main frame from splitter , including hydraulic hoses.
2.Contain hydraulic oil.
3. Separate engine from pump.
4. Remove couplings w/ spider spacer. 1/8\" Allen wrench required (maybe rust blaster) for set screws.
5. Secure woodruff keys from each coupling half.
6.Steel wool & bearing grease pump

7.Reinstall new couplings with set screws not tight.
8.Lower engine to pump. Pump has Spider spacer on its coupling. Jiggle to interlock couplings.
9.Reposition engine & pump frame(main frame w/ wheels) to set .02-.09 gauge space. Hard to do.
10.Tighten set screws(70#) w/ Allen wrench. Grease in Woodruff slots can fool you on tightness.
11.Secure engine to main frame. Reconnect hoses. Check hydraulic oil. Start engine.
12. Engine pull start will be \"stiff\" at first.
13. Exercise splitter 10-12 times.
Recheck oil.
14. Double check set screw tightness after a little splitting.
Removed engine and pump mounting for gear access. loosened set screws with allen wrench and used gear puller to remove both couplers, one from engine and one from hydraulic pump.

Special note: remove couplers to check shaft sizes before ordering as at least three different sizes are available. Shaft sizes are stamped on couplers.
Just remove one coupling from the engine and remove the other coupling from the pump and then go back with the new ones,,,,,,,,,now the splitter works good as new....thanks....
Removed engine. Removed old coupler. Installed new coupler, be sure to use lock-tight on the set screws. Installed engine adjusted and tightened coupler.
Good thing I ordered two spider bushings because one doesnÆt fit this coupler type.
