If used in hazardous areas, it is advisable to use Loctite to prevent the 

setscrews loosening.

PRECAUTION!

It is not allowed to use the taper bush without keyway in high-risk areas, 

but only for category 3 equipment.

4.2.2  Taper bush disassembly

4.3  GRS coupling assembly

To remove the taper bush from the hub, remove the setscrews.
Then, insert one of these into the threaded hole of the bush forcing its disassembling. 

Components:
•  2 hubs
•  2 spiders
•  1 intermediate element
•  2 setscrews

Follow the instructions of the GRMP type making sure to check the value 

(see 

TABLE 4.1 - M Value

) for both spiders.
