FAQs
Is the umbrella base included with this product?
No, the umbrella base is not included. You will need to purchase a compatible base separately, ensuring it can accommodate a 1.5" (38 mm) pole diameter and provides adequate stability.
What is the material of the canopy?
The canopy is made from 180 g/m² polyester, which is designed to offer protection from sun and light drizzle.
How do I clean the umbrella canopy?
Clean the canopy with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse well and allow it to air dry completely before closing it.
What are the dimensions of the umbrella?
The umbrella has a canopy diameter of 104" (264 cm), a product height of 94" (239 cm), and a pole diameter of 1.5" (38 mm).
What should I do if the umbrella is exposed to strong winds?
It is crucial to close the umbrella immediately during strong winds, heavy rain, or stormy weather to prevent damage to the canopy, frame, and tilt mechanism.
How should I operate the tilt function?
The double-sided tilt function is operated by pressing a button. Operate it gently and slowly to adjust the shade angle, avoiding any forceful movements to protect the mechanism.
What is the net weight of the umbrella?
The net weight of the umbrella itself is 10.2 lb (4.7 kg). A separate, stable base is required for secure placement.
Troubleshooting
Umbrella is difficult to open or close
Ensure the crank mechanism is properly aligned. Operate slowly and gently. Check for any obstructions around the pole or canopy. If the issue persists, inspect the tilt mechanism for damage.
Tilt mechanism is not functioning correctly
Open the umbrella slowly and gently. Press the tilt button firmly but without force. Ensure no part of the canopy or frame is obstructing the mechanism's movement. Avoid forcing the tilt function.
Canopy appears loose or saggy
Check that the umbrella is fully opened and the canopy is spread evenly. Ensure all ribs are correctly seated in their pockets. The fabric may relax slightly over time; ensure it is properly tensioned when open.
Umbrella feels unstable
Verify that the umbrella is secured in a sufficiently heavy and stable base. The pole diameter is 1.5" (38 mm), so ensure your base holder matches this size. Add weight to the base if necessary, especially in windy areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Ensure you have a compatible umbrella base (not included) with a pole holder of at least 1.5" (38 mm) diameter.
- Insert the umbrella pole into the base holder and secure it according to the base manufacturer's instructions.
- Slowly and gently operate the crank mechanism to fully open the umbrella. Avoid forceful extension.
Compatibility:
- Base: Requires a stable umbrella base designed for poles with a 1.5" (38 mm) diameter. Ensure the base is heavy enough to support the umbrella's height and size, especially in breezy conditions.
- Space: Suitable for gardens, patios, terraces, balconies, and poolside areas. Ensure adequate clearance for the full canopy span (104" / 264 cm) and height (94" / 239 cm).
Care:
- Cleaning the Canopy: Use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before closing.
- Frame Maintenance: Wipe the metal pole and ribs with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Periodically check the zinc alloy joint for any signs of wear.
- Storage: When not in use, especially during nights, windy, or rainy days, close the umbrella completely and store it away to prevent damage to the fabric, frame, and tilt mechanism. Consider using a breathable umbrella cover for added protection when stored.
- Operation: Always open and close the umbrella slowly and gently. Avoid pulling or forcing any part of the mechanism.
