Product Information
Full details
The vidaXL Parasol Base (4007982) is an ideal solution for homeowners looking for a heavy-duty, reliable foundation to keep their outdoor umbrellas upright. Featuring a durable concrete-filled construction and lockable castors, it provides exceptional stability for various patio settings; however, at 27 kg, its significant weight makes it difficult to relocate frequently without utilizing the built-in wheels.

FAQs
Does this base fit all umbrella poles?
It is compatible with 38 mm and 48 mm diameter poles using the provided adaptors.
Can I use this base on a lawn?
While it can be placed on a lawn, the castors are designed for hard surfaces and may sink into soft soil or become difficult to roll on grass.
How much does the base weigh?
The total weight of the base is 27 kg.
Is the base weatherproof?
Yes, it is designed for outdoor use; however, keeping it clean and avoiding prolonged exposure to corrosive chemicals will extend its lifespan.
How do I secure the umbrella in the base?
Use the built-in tightening knob on the side of the pole housing to clamp the pole in place.
Troubleshooting
Umbrella wobbles inside the base
Ensure you are using the correct adaptor ring for your pole diameter and verify that the tightening knob is screwed in firmly.
Base is difficult to move on the castors
Check that the wheel locks are fully disengaged and ensure the surface is debris-free; the wheels are designed for hard, flat surfaces and may struggle on thick grass or uneven gravel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your parasol base, ensure you are on a flat surface. Select the appropriate plastic adaptor ring based on your umbrella pole size (38 mm or 48 mm) and insert it into the top of the base. Once the pole is inserted, rotate the side tightening knob clockwise until it grips the pole firmly. To move the base, unlock the castors, guide the base to your preferred location, and lock the wheels again to prevent shifting. For maintenance, periodically wipe the shell with a damp cloth to remove dust or garden debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the finish of the decorative line pattern.
