A tool and method for aligning multiple shaft segments which are coupled together to form a single rotating shaft. The device comprises a cylindrical bar having an annular, axially-extending outer surface, rotating means on a first end of the bar, and engaging/disengaging means fixed on the second end of the bar. The bar is temporarily inserted through a bolt hole in the collar of the first shaft and partially through an aligned hole in an adjacent coupling of the second shaft until at least a portion of the engaging/disengaging means is positioned within the bolt hole of the second collar. The engaging/disengaging means engages the second collar so that a turning force from the first shaft is transmitted to the second shaft. The engaging/disengaging means also disengages from the second collar by rotating the bar after rotation of the shaft is ceased.
