Not certain, but there must be a a set screw or pin somewhere on the shaft that is holding it on?

There appears to be a pin that goes through the shaft and the gear.  One side looks almost welded, while the other looks like the end of the pin.  Would you normally hammer that pin back out?  Do you think that it would damage the gear or shaft?
I looked at the manual and parts catalog and in the exploded diagram of parts, it shows a pin ... so maybe that is the answer..
What do you think?

There is a pin on the gear that you have pictured inside the coin door. Once you remove the pin and gear, pull on the coupler and shaft will slip through the main door.

I have been knocking on that with a hammer and a punch and it is not moving... I am afraid that I am going to bend the shaft or gear..  I tried WD40... anything else to free up the pin?

Try rotating the gear and go at it from the other side - I think it is a tapered pin
