4. Disassembling coupling body and guide bush
In this video we find computer graphics and minimal voice-over work showing us how to disassemble a coupling body and guide bush. It’s minimalist in all the best ways.

At 8:11, this is yet another more in-depth video. Here, we see a technician installing a coupling up in the nacelle of wind turbine. Coupling videos are easy to find, wind turbine videos even easier. But installation videos of this crucial component in a crucial renewable energy tool? Not so much.
Furthermore, this video was not shot in a studio, this is a video of an actual real-world application, which is less common online than you would think. That is why our #1 video is such a gem. It also doesn’t hurt that the kool kats of Zero-Max were kind enough to spice up this 8 minute monster with a smooth-jazz/soul-funk fusion soundtrack to help keep your attention.
