Need help... Auger problems US Stove 6039

[rachpuff525]

I had to replace the auger motor on my Autumn Harvest 6039 pellet stove and now the auger will not stay in the coupling when I turn it on. With this model the auger shaft just goes into the coupling and nothing else holds it there. The new motor turns clockwise. Is it supposed to turn counter clockwise? Or is there supposed to be something else in there that I've missed that holds it in the coupling?

The new motor turns clockwise. Is it supposed to turn counter clockwise?

Clockwise is correct looking through the glass on the door the auger should be turning to the right (clockwise) with pellets in the hopper the pellets push back on the auger holding the auger and coupler together.
