Full details

Its key benefit is the easy-to-use crank handle and tilting mechanism for adjustable shade. A significant consideration is that a parasol base is not included and is essential for stability.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is a parasol base included with this product?

No, a parasol base is not included. A suitable base is essential for stability and must be purchased separately.

What weight of base do I need?

For use with a garden table, an 11kg base is recommended. If using the parasol freestanding without a table, a 25kg base is advised for maximum stability.

How do I clean the parasol canopy?

Wipe the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow it to air dry completely before closing or storing.

Can I leave the parasol up in windy conditions?

It is not recommended to use the parasol in strong winds. Close and secure it to prevent damage and ensure safety.

What is the UPF rating of the canopy?

The canopy has a UPF 30+ rating, which offers good protection against the sun's damaging ultraviolet rays.

How tall is the parasol?

The parasol measures approximately 2.2m (7.2 ft) in height from the bottom of the pole to the top of the canopy.

What material is the pole made of?

The main pole is made of lightweight yet durable aluminum, while the canopy ribs are constructed from steel.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is difficult to open or close

Ensure the pole sections are properly locked together. Check the crank mechanism for any obstructions and ensure the canopy ribs are not snagged. Operate slowly and smoothly.

Parasol feels unstable

Verify that the parasol is inserted correctly into a sufficiently heavy base (11kg for table use, 25kg for freestanding). Ensure the base is on level ground.

Canopy fabric is stained

Spot clean with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Water pooling on the canopy

Ensure the air vent is open to allow for air circulation. If significant pooling occurs, the canopy may not be adequately angled or the fabric may have lost some water repellency over time.

Care:

Cleaning the Canopy: Wipe the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before closing. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Pole Maintenance: Wipe the aluminum pole with a damp cloth. If any signs of corrosion appear on the steel ribs, clean and dry them, then consider applying a light coating of oil.
Storage: When not in use, especially during off-seasons or periods of high wind, close the parasol completely and store it in a dry place to prolong its lifespan. Consider using a parasol cover.
Wind: Avoid using the parasol in strong winds, as this can cause damage or instability, even with a proper base.
