Thanks for the reply, I'll give it another shot.

It will definitely slide on. You can tap a screwdriver into the gap, it won't hurt anything. Be sure the screwdriver is large enough to open up the collar without bottoming out. You removed the screw from the collar, right?

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thank you
