Disconnect midmower drive shaft? BX1880

[Llh]

I want to thank all for the responses to my questions about turning the height adjustment dial. I need to lower the mower to access the linkage.

I want to remove the mid mower and not sure how the drive shaft disconnects. Does it just slide off the shaft? Does it have a keeper pin/clip?

Thanks in advance for your response. This is a great forum.

Should have a large collar around the PTO shaft (yoke) as it mates to the PTO under the tractor - slide the collar and pull away. Sometimes it is hard to do if it has not been greased well - can be done with one hand, but sometimes you need two to slide it back.

looks something like this:
