    CAUTION:
    • Remove moisture, oil, and dust from the area to be taped before doing the taping.
    • Firmly tape the ends so that they do not peel off.
    • Always superimpose the tape while wrapping.
    • Wrap the tape approx. 20-30 mm {0.79-1.2 in} beyond both ends of the heat shrinkable tubing.
    NOTE:
