Do you have a pair of channel-loc pliers?? Thread the bolt into the coupler, leaving ~ 1/8 - 3/16" space under the head.. One jaw of the pliers in the slot, and the other jaw on the head of the bolt. Squeeze the pliers taking note of the gap width. Work slowly, checking the fit occasionally until the coupler slides over the shaft.
