To apply the thermo shrinking a heat gun is needed (1500-2000W)
The heating time varies depending on the outside temperature, and in any case the correct
temperature is reached when the inner glue comes out, creating a ring all around the edges.
Insert the side tube and the ends of the elements in the curves up to the maximum insertion, (fig, 1)
before heating the sheaths check that the side section is parallel to the boom, to avoid typical
candy shape.
Move the sleeves exactly to the center of the splice and heat as described above. (Fig.2)
NOTE
: Clean the joint surfaces of the tubes and curves before applying the sheath.
Avoid any twisting and movement of the joint until it is completely cool
The curves have drain holes, make sure they are facing down (picture 3)

Before joining the three elements with joints you must insert the "T" shaped support.
