FIG. 2 is an enlarged top plan view of a coupler shown separately for clarity of illustration thereof;

FIG. 3 is an enlarged bottom plan view of a coupler shown separately for clarity of illustration thereof;

FIG. 4 is an enlarged side view of a coupler shown separately without the clamp handle and draw band for clarity of illustration thereof; and,

The broken line showing of the split band bushing is for illustrative purposes only and forms no part of the claimed design.
