ABSTRACT:
A prime mover (10) includes a housing (12), an end cover (18) secured to the housing (12), a driving shaft (22) mounted in the housing (12) and a driven member (49) mounted external of the end cover (18). A coupling mechanism (48) couples the driving shaft (22) to the driven member (49) to provide an arrangement that allows the removal of the driving shaft (22) without having to remove the end cover (18) and other associated elements. This provides a substantial time savings when removing a driving shaft (22) from a prime mover.
