Seems it got damaged sitting on my bench.

I see it is a center shank, but I do not know if it is long or medium.  If I had to guess, it would be long.  The parts diagram does not show a complete coupler, but all the parts that make up the coupled but no description.

Can anyone help me identify the correct couple to replace the broken one?

Thx!

The part number for the shank on the exploded diagram is H8888-00M01. Plugging that into the parts search brings up this:

The description says it's EZ-Mate Coupler #78024, which is a long, center shank, coupler.

If at first you don't succeed, throw it in the spare parts box.

Len,
Thank you very much; if only I realized it was that easy.  Part ordered.
