Product Information

Full details

The Jarder Libra Parasol is designed for homeowners seeking flexible and effective garden shade. Its key benefit is the adjustable cantilever design, allowing shade placement without a central pole obstruction. A potential caveat is the need to fill the base for stability, which requires manual effort. This 3m parasol features a durable polyester canopy, a tilting mechanism for precise sun tracking, and a base that can be weighted with sand or water. It also includes a protective cover.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is unstable or wobbles

Ensure the base is fully filled with water or sand and securely attached to the frame. Check that the parasol is on a level surface.

Canopy does not open or close smoothly

Check for any obstructions around the pole or canopy edges. Ensure the locking mechanism is disengaged before operating. Refer to assembly instructions for specific operating procedures.

Water leaks from the base

Verify that the fill plug is securely tightened. Inspect the base for any cracks or damage; if found, consider a replacement or repair.

Colour fading on the canopy

While the material is UV resistant, prolonged exposure can cause fading. Use the included cover when not in use and consider storing indoors during peak sun seasons if significant fading is a concern.
