FAQs

What is the diameter of the parasol pole?

The parasol pole has a diameter of 38mm.

How do I operate the tilt function?

The tilt function is typically operated via a button or lever located near the crank winding mechanism. Refer to the specific instructions for your model.

How long do the solar LED lights last on a full charge?

The duration the LED lights last depends on the amount of sunlight the solar panel receives during the day. Typically, a full charge can provide several hours of ambient lighting.

Is a weighted base included with the parasol?

A weighted base is not always included. For optimal stability, especially in breezy conditions, it is recommended to use a compatible weighted parasol base.

What material is the canopy made from?

The canopy is made from high-quality 180g polyester, which is water-resistant and provides UV protection.

How should I clean the parasol canopy?

Clean the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse gently and allow to air dry completely before closing.

Does this parasol come in other colors?

Yes, this model is also available in Beige, Cream, Grey, and Black variants.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is unstable or wobbles in the wind.

Ensure the parasol is securely fitted into a weighted base or patio table. Consider increasing the weight of the base or using additional anchoring methods for windy areas.

LED lights are not illuminating or are dim.

Check that the solar panel is clean and has been exposed to direct sunlight for several hours. Ensure the on/off switch for the lights is in the 'on' position. If the issue persists, the rechargeable battery may need replacement.

Crank mechanism is difficult to operate.

Ensure the parasol canopy is fully open or closed before attempting to crank. Check for any obstructions around the pole or mechanism. Lubricate the mechanism sparingly if it feels stiff, following manufacturer guidelines if available.

Canopy fabric is showing signs of mildew or staining.

Clean the canopy with a mild soap and water solution. Ensure it is thoroughly dried before closing. Regular cleaning and proper storage with the rain cover can prevent mildew.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers dual functionality: provides shade during the day and atmospheric lighting at night.
  • Generous 2.7m canopy size is suitable for most outdoor seating and dining areas.
  • Solar-powered LEDs are energy-efficient and reduce running costs.
  • The tilt feature enhances its usability by allowing adaptable shade.
  • Durable materials like powder-coated steel and 180g polyester ensure longevity.
  • Easy to operate with a simple crank mechanism.

Cons

  • Requires a weighted base for maximum stability, which is not always included.
  • The LED lights provide ambiance rather than bright task lighting.
  • While water-resistant, it may not withstand heavy rainfall.
  • Carbon steel frame, while durable, can be heavy.
  • Solar light performance is dependent on sufficient daylight for charging.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Assemble the parasol pole sections according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  2. Insert the pole into a compatible weighted base or through the central hole of a suitable patio table. Ensure it is securely fitted.
  3. To open, use the smooth crank mechanism to raise the canopy.
  4. To tilt, locate the tilt adjustment mechanism (often a button or lever near the crank handle) and operate as instructed to angle the canopy.

Compatibility:

  • Requires a weighted parasol base (minimum weight recommended for stability, especially in windy conditions) or a patio table with a central aperture of approximately 38mm diameter.
  • The solar panel for the LED lights should be positioned to receive direct sunlight during the day for optimal charging.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure the canopy is completely dry before closing and storing.
  • Storage: During prolonged periods of non-use or adverse weather (high winds, heavy rain), close the parasol and use the included waterproof Oxford fabric rain cover to protect it from the elements. Store in a dry, sheltered location.
  • LED Lights: Ensure the solar panel remains clean to maximize light absorption. The battery powering the LEDs is rechargeable via solar energy.
